 Stories from religious texts—such as the
Ramayana, the Mahabharata, the Qurʾan, or the
Bible—often became songs that were sung in
either the local or the imported language; these
songs, in turn, popularized the new beliefs. Some
songs that blended the old and the new had
powers; in Java, for example, certain songs could
be sung to stop heavy rains, tame crocodiles, or to
exorcise malevolent spirits.

Rasa Sayang literally “loving
feeling” is a folk song in Malay
language. It is from Maluku,
Indonesia, and popular in
Malaysia, Singapore and
Philippines.
Ma’am De Asis
 The basis of Rasa Sayang is like
Dondang Sayang and other
Malay folk songs, which take
their form from the pantun, a
traditional ethnic Malay poetic
form.
Ma’am De Asis
 Some people in Indonesia have claimed
that the song originated in the Maluku
Islands, but such claims are disputed, as
the standard Malay language itself and the
tradition of pantun exchange are unknown
to the Maluku Islands. Some of the
Indonesians and Malaysians have once
fought because of this.
