inferential analysis
like usual, the pembayang is intended to make the pantun rhymes even though it does not make any sense. As for the meaning, it means that after u have used the bathroom (peeing to be exact), you have to take the responsibility to flush. Meaning that if you have done something, you must be responsible for it. the Malays always have pantun that is related to the theme responsibility.
Malays back then always have this honor of being responsible for one's own act. never to blame anyone for one's own doing and to take the responsibility. If not, there is another saying of 'tak mengaku berak di tengah jalan'. Meaning: not admitting that one had done number two in the middle of the road.
