Vibrations of the soul

GETARAN JIWA 1958 — VIBRATIONS OF THE SOUL

Singable English lyrics,
my version . . .

VERSE 1:
Getaran jiwa, melanda hatiku
Vibrations of the soul, they flood into my heart

Tersusun nada, irama dan lagu
The tones, the me-lody, the song so well arranged

CHORUS:
Walau hanya sederhana
Although it's only a sim-ple tune
Tetapi tak mengapa
It doesn't matter to me
Moga dapat membangkitkan
May/(it) bring about an awakening
Sedarlah kamu wahai insan
Will you wake up, my dearest friend

VERSE 2:
Tak mungkin hilang, Irama dan lagu
They — won't go away, Those melody and songs

Bagaikan kembang, Sentiasa bermadu
Like blooming flowers, Always flowing with honey

ENDING:
Andai dipisah lagu dan irama
If song and melody, are sadly torn apart
Lemah tiada berjiwa, hampa
I'll be weak and lifeless, emp—ty . . .

Vibrations of the soul
