Bicara Manis Menghiris Kalbu
Siti Nurhaliza · Safa [2001]
satu persatulah jua tinggalkan diri mu
cumalah aku saja yang masih lagi bertahan
memendam rasa...
bulan madu yang indah
sudah sampai penghujungnya
engkau pun mula berubah
dan beralih arah
kata-kata manis tiada lagi ku dengar
hidup ku pula makin tawar...
tiap bicara manis
bagaikan selumbar bisa
kau tanam di jiwa
tak terlihat oleh pandangan mata mu
tiap bicara manis
memujuk dan merayu ku
tak usah berlalu
dan merajuk bawa hati pilu...
andai sudah tiba masa
dan tiada jodoh kita
biar kita berpisah
dari merana...
Bicara Manis Menghiris Kalbu
Siti Nurhaliza delivers a hauntingly beautiful rendition of 'Bicara Manis Menghiris Kalbu' on her 2001 album 'Safa'. This track exemplifies her mastery of the Malaysian pop genre, blending traditional Malay instrumentation with contemporary R&B sensibilities. The song's lyrical theme explores the deceptive nature of sweet words that can wound the heart, a subject Nurhaliza has addressed with emotional depth throughout her career. Recorded during a period where she refined her vocal technique to include more nuanced falsettos and breathy textures, the recording stands as a testament to her ability to convey complex romantic narratives. The composition remains a staple in her discography, often performed live to highlight her vocal agility and emotional resonance.
