“enjit-enjit semut” It's a child game usually played by two or many more. Uhm (easier to demonstrate than to describe). Basically each other pinches another's outer hand surface and starting to sing a song till the pain is unbearable & that pinched hand in turn will go up to pinch the other's hand followed by the song . then it goes 'siapa sakit naik atas' = 'who's in pain, go on up' then the bottomost hand goes up to the top to pinch another and you go on and on and on.
Below is the lyric of the song, so that everybody can play this traditional games.!!
“Enjit-enjit semut siapa sakit naik atas
Enjit-enjit semut siapa sakit naik atas
Enjit-enjit semut siapa sakit naik atas
Enjit-enjit semut siapa sakit naik atas
Darilah Perlis hingga ke Sabah
Banyaklah tempat oi bersukaria
Kalaulah semua tidak percaya
Marilah kita pergi sekarang
Setiap hari kita bekerja
Kekadang kita nak rehat juga
Inilah masa hendak merasa
Tempat menarik dalam negara
Kalaulah pergi masuk ke hutan
Janganlah lupa oi bawa makanan
Jangan berjalan sampai sempadan
Takut nanti sesat berbulan-bulan
Pergi melancung ajak kawan-kawan
Dalam negara tempat yang menawan
Tak payah pergi ke tempat orang
Di tempat sendiri pasti tertawan
Sampai disini cerita kita
Dilain kali kita cerita lagi
Inilah lagu untuk kawan-kawan
Kalau tak nak dengar bolehlah jalan”
