Sweet Melody Remains Sweet

a song on air
a story recited
in rhythms of music
a soul healed
from injuries of the past
in counts of minutes
the sweet melody
erases slowly
those bad memories
the pleasant ending
touches the heart
and lives in it

--------

Today I "read" a story in a song and enjoy the good lessons in rhythms of music and beats of tempo which show the itinerary of life from grey to brightness.

Omar Akram - Surrender

Listening to good music can soothe my mind after slogging days of works. I love Omar Akram's music.  This is among his creations which I got from youtube. Credits to Andreea Petcu for uploading this video. 

This sentimental and romantic music makes me feel so light and enable me to fly gracefully in the air. As if I am gliding among nature's beauty; smiling and laughing, admiring the uniqueness of each one and feel so blessed to be able to see their existence which makes this world beautiful. Deep in my heart I wish this beauty to ever last though deep down in my heart, too, there is a scary shadow lurking somewhere as a warning sign that hopes will fall into pieces as we progress, more developments take place, thus more destructions done on nature...

I am now carried away by the beauty of this music; listening with eyes closed and in deep appreciation. It is such a wonderful feeling which makes me wish to listen more and more to it. Listening to music is one way of decluttering myself from the bugs of life. Indeed, I feel so relax now when the beautiful melody of this music  gently touches my soul. I am in another world where there is peace and love. I heart it!

Omar Akram - Dancing With The Wind

Surfing for some beautiful music I came across this on youtube. The moment I listened to it, I fell in love with it! The music is so beautiful, so romantic.  I looked up for some information about him. He is a pianist and composer, location LA, USA (that's what I got from his facebook page) and this is what he said :

“In a world where communication and understanding between cultures is sometimes difficult, I hope my music can serve as a form of international language that crosses any cultural barriers".

Indeed, it is!

What I can say about his music is it's very beautiful and takes my breath away!
Take a listen! Listening is believing.

Siti Nurhaliza - The Moon Represents My Heart

This is such a lovely number that captures my heart. Datuk Siti Nurhaliza is Malaysia's top singer. She is a diva who received the most awards and listed in Malaysia Book Of Records.

Enjoy the song!


*After reading some comments ,  I write this as an addition to what I wrote above. As the song is sung in Chinese, most of us don't understand the lyrics. The song is not Siti's original number. Siti Nurhaliza is a Malay but as a singer, she can sing songs in other languages. I love this Chinese classic.

I surfed for the translation and this is what I got from http://www.sinosplice.com/

The Moon Represents My Heart

1
You ask how deeply I love you,
and just how great my love is,
My affection is real,
and my love is true,
The moon represents my heart.

2
You ask how deeply I love you,
and just how great my love is,
My affection does not waver,
and my love doesn't change,
The moon represents my heart.

3
So soft was the kiss,
that has moved my heart,
Such a deep affection,
makes me long for you now.

4
You ask how deeply I love you,
and just how great my love is,
Consider this,
and look above,
The moon represents my heart.
(Repeat 3 & 4)
Consider this,
and look above,
The moon represents my heart.
