God will make a way
Where there seems to be no way
He works in ways we cannot see
He will make a way for me

He will be my guide
Hold me closely to His side
With love and strength
For each new day

He will make a way
He will make a way
By a roadway in the wilderness
He’ll lead me

And rivers in the desert will I see
Heaven and earth will fade
But His Word will still remain
He will do something new today

This song, titled Aspalela, is a recent hit in Malaysia. Though I have taken Malay class back then in Sec 3 and Sec4, I barely able to decypher the lyrics. Some people said the tone is very similar to Indonesia’s children song of ‘Abang Tukang Bakso‘ (‘Meatballs Seller’). I have no nothing to say. You hear it for yourself. Ignore the lyrics.

This is the Aspalela

This is the ‘Meatball’ seller which had been popularized by Melisa few decades ago

Wondering if all the copyright issue has been settled. All songs are hosted at imeem.

Oh my! Sylvia (see comment #1) mentioned that in addition to similar ‘kiddish tone’, the melody of Aspalela also similar to another old  Indonesian song ‘Bintang Kejora” (’Morning Star’). It is very difficult to get the online copy of that song but here is it or you to compare (contain a lot of noise but this is the only copy I could find so far).

People with tuned ears are indeed more sensitive to this kind of thing.
