Melodi 旋律- 林宇中 feat Sheila Majid
This song was originally a pure mandarin ballad. Then, there is this long long story and Sheila Majid gets to make a special appearance in this song. I first heard this song on MyFM and it instantaneously captured my heart. Simple with a repetitive and easy to sing-along melody, it's just like the Cat Rice song. Just a simple transposition of key made up the rest of the song. For the first time in the Msian music industry( I think), two singers of different race joined forces in one song, and sang in their own native language. I think it's awesome! That is what I call perpaduan (unity). What do you think?
I've translated this song (even though I should be studying now) for the sake of my friends who cannot understand/ read either mandarin or malay. There's not audio version for this song, but u can listen to it here.
Sheila:
Kau melodi yang indah,
You are a sweet melody
Menusuk di jiwa,
Seeping into my soul
Tanpamu hidupku tak bermakna.
Without you my life is meaningless
Rynn:
多麽實在的感覺
So real this feeling
望著你的臉 ,
Looking at your face
這一刻, 我到了被人遺忘的永遠
At this very moment, I have reached the long-forgotten everlastingness
Sheila:
Pertemuan yang tanpa diduga
An unexpected meeting
Rynn:
像迷路的人找到回家的路綫
Is like a lost person who found his way home
Sheila:
Engkau bak lagu dan aku bagai irama
You are like a song and I am like the rhythm
Rynn:
Bersatu kita mewarnai hidup bersama
United, we colour our lives together
Sheila:
Tanpamu hilanglah nadi kita berdua
Wihout you, our pulses will be gone
Rynn:
Menderita tiada haluan
Suffering without direction
(Together)窩在我心裏最動聽的ＭＥＬＯＤＩ
Oh... You are the sweetest melody in my heart
The original version of 旋律 is shown below:
Enjoy and happy revising!
