The pearl of Surabaya
(Veerman/Keizer/Tuijp)

Where a golden sun is rising
From the dew, on blue blue waters
So mystifying, the beauty of tropic islands
Between mystery and secrets
Silent passion, misty colours
I found my true love
The pearl of Surabaya

You whispered sweet words
Gave me a bunch of 'bunga melatti'
And while the moon was gently smiling
Oh babe, I fell in love with you

That moonlit night in Surabaya
Mmmm mmm mmmmm I lost my heart
That moonlit night in Surabaya
I fell, oh, I fell in love

Where the paddy fields are blooming
In the sunlit green, green valleys
I found my true love
The pearl of Surabaya

You whispered sweet words
Gave me a bunch of 'bunga melatti'
And while the moon was gently smiling
Oh babe, I fell in love with you

That moonlit night in Surabaya
Mmmm mmm mmmmm I lost my heart
That moonlit night in Surabaya
I fell, oh, I fell in love
That moonlit night in Surabaya
I fell, oh, I fell
In love Appears on:
