From the pen of renowned composer Dick Lee of the Republic
of Singapore comes this highly popular theme song from his
musical "Kampong Amber," now a work of national folklore.
(Recited by Richard Lee Orey)
Bunga Sayang
(Flower of Love)
In every village by the sea
There stands a tall and ancient tree
Which shelters from the sky above
A tree of hope, a tree of love
It shares our joy and feels our pain
It grows with us through sun and rain
It stays so green the whole year through
And flowers when a dream comes true
Bunga sayang, bunga sayang
You are heaven's own work of art
Bunga sayang, bunga sayang,
Gentle flower of the heart
Bunga sayang, bunga sayang
Gentle flower of the heart
