Saman (or dance of thousand hands) is one of the most popular dances in Indonesia. Its origin is from the Gayo ethnic group from Gayo Lues and is normally performed to celebrate important occasions. This dance is done by a group in one line (sometimes with some displacement) and dancers perform while kneeling.

On November 24, 2011 UNESCO officially recognized Aceh's traditional Saman Dance as an intangible element of world cultural heritage, which needs UNESCO's urgent protection. The ASEAN Tourism Association (ASEANTA) named on Saman Dance as the best ASEAN cultural preservation effort at the 25th ASEANTA Awards for Excellence 2012.

Salamualaikum

Jaro ta mumat selamat

Nyawong geutanyoe didalam badan

Barang pinjaman si at Tuhan bri

Otrok bak wate ka geucok pulang

Nyawong lam badan Tuhan pe cre bre

Huts kalahuts

Huts kalahuts manna manan 2X

Jo ampun tengku raja

Sijumpe mileh si uleh karolah anan

Hai jala

Hai jala tun mile la mile jala tun 2X

Hai burek melaboh rong ateh

Rong gunong lah ombak

Cabang gunong lom aneuk-aneuk lhe kua

Hai LaHot sa

Ek tren melumbeu

Hai bacuteuk

Salah bukon sa

Lah lon away (salah) me

Lah phon awak bak(di) gata

Hai peuraho raya

Bungka u sabang

Kapatah tiang

Tamong kuala

Hei menyoe na

Gaseh di uloen

Na nyeum bek cut bek

Lekang geu tanyoe dua
