Song of the Day 010

P. Ramlee & Saloma -

Malam Bulan Dipagar Bintang

> Click here for my acapella cover <

Just because.
It works as a  mic test as well as giving me opportunity to share my guilty pleasure.
I can't sing well at all but I just want to share the feeling that I get when I sing my favourite songs.

You know the feeling, right? I might give it another try later and I hope it will get better.

If my cover is too much for you, here's the original to help you understand why I still have this song at the back of my mind, and still in my active playlist.

One of my favourite songs by the local legend, P. Ramlee ... his song is a little more in my range and while I will never be able to properly pay tribute to him, just singing the song makes me so happy!

Lyrics

Malam bulan dipagar bintang

Makin indah jika dipandang

Bagai gadis beri senyuman

Pada bujang idaman

Duhai kasih ingin dimanja

Dengan cumbuan mesra

Untuk pelipur lara

Penawar dik asmara

Mmm.. mmm…

Mmm.. mmm…

Malam bulan dipagar bintang

Tambah seri cuaca malam

Murni sungguh ciptaan Tuhan

Bulan bintang lampu alam

Andai kata bintang menyepi

Bulan tidak berseri

Malam menjadi sunyi

Tidak berseri lagi ...

Songwriter: P. Ramlee (?)

P.S. Saloma is his eventual wife, so the chemistry between them was indeed natural!
