Lovely is the English language
More fruitful than that of the Malays
I could see the fruitfulness of it
And learn to appreciate juiciness when you bite into it
Unlike the dryness of that of the Malays

You can call someone an apple of your eye
And when you fall in love with that person you can go bananas
In Malay you can't call your date a rambutan
And be mistaken as an orangutan
You can be crazy in love but you can't say that I am going to be a 
pisang
No no no - Malay is a fruitless language ...
