Ketika engkau dilahirkan Engkau menerangi alam Kegelapan ayah dan ibu mu Betapa murni kasihnya Ketika kau nyenyak tidur Menatapi wajahmu oh anak Kenanglah ibu mu tidur tak lena Menjaga tidur mu Takut engkau terbangun Menangis kehausan susu Di belai mu dengan cermat Penuh kasih dan sayang Tiap detik dan setiap waktu
I've been reading some blogs and it turns out this song is still being played in the Netherlands supermarkets, elevators in Singapore and subways in Korea and even a funeral march in Indonesia 30+ years since it became a hit. It's really amazing how a finely crafted song with simple but heartfelt lyrics can really transcend language barriers and make us realize the common thread within us no matter where we come from.
very nice accoustic performance guys you know im one of the biggest fan of freddie aguilar and impersonator, its amazing that until now you guys sung this very inspirational song,for you guys MABUHAY!!
wow great rendition of the song, im a filipino and im glad that other race can appreciate a great filipino song, "anak". this just proved that music is the universal language. kudos to the singer, great job!!!!

proud to be FILIPINO.. proud to be MALAY RACE.. :)) blood is thicker than water.. let's help each other for the greater malay race .. we will stand tall in asia :))
AWSOME!! 2 thumbs up! Malaysians thank your for singing this song.I must say all filipinos are very proud of you guys and im one of them.^^ And lets not forget Malaysians and Filipinos are in one blood..We are all brothers and sisters in bloods.PEACE Malaysians ^^.
Filipinos was a mix but originally came from Malay...... Malaysian and Filipinos are alike... (the same) both beautiful people. I am a filipino and I love Malaysian too, they are kind..... I love them!
This is a great rendition for a wonderfully crafted song..Liked it.. enjoyed it..Never heard a song that hits home better than Anak...and translated into so many different languages.
Malaysians n Philippians are same people. It's juz that alot of Philippians are mixed with many races. Malaysians have less mixed (Portugeise). That's all. When u cut both their palm, it's the same red blood.

nagulat ako ng una kong marinig yan sa malaysia, its just too bad that most of then didnt know that the original songs was from philippines, but they sung it well.
@jhoel47 really, but this ved. shows that they respect the original singer composer of the song because they put freddie aguilar of phils. as the title, they shouldnt forget that...
this song has a very beautiful message, it has a reason why it was translated into 33 languages, it makes me feel good to actually hear another race singing this song with passion, even tried to sing in our own language. props to him.
im a filipina & i find this guy talented, his voice is nice & raspy. i dont get all the dissing & bashing here..malaysians & filipinos are both asian race, wtf is going on?! im a proud pinoy, its not just bec a filipino originally sung this song, it makes me even prouder that through music, it is possible to touch people, cross borders & influence listeners emotionally..
we use same word for philipines/malaysian and indonesian ANAK means CHILD. anyway this actually song competition.. participants must have ability to sing any song in a wide genre. beyond expectation and extra bonus if u can sing in other languange... (ops.. sorry my english so bad)
@rdsalasa yes, anak-child same with phils.,malaysia, indonsia because filipinos are from malaysia and indonisia migrated the phil. islands thousands of yrs. ago... wen the spanish came to the phils. thats when the filipinos culture change but still we have in common...
the message of this song is universal no matter what language it is sung! it deserves to be spread in every language. so to all haters and all u saying "copycats" to anybody who remakes this song,u should all be ashamed of what u are saying!!!!!! thats so "unfilipino"! di ganyan umasta ang tunay na pilipino!........to the singer in this video, great job bro!
@anitoboi1987..hay, naku..ano ang trabaho mo anitoboi? nka tapos kaba ng grade 6? pra ka kasing tambay na lango sa droga..ano ang gaya gaya pinag sasabi mo, i universal ang message at tama sila na i spread ang mensahi..hindi copycut.. hay naku..talaga mga pinoy iba jan..
I'm JJ filipino,and also singing ANAK with my Band group sometimes in japanese version...Amazing...acoustic version of ANAK is beautiful...Music is life,No music No Life....
Yea, mrblurblur2003 should think before he speaks. He's actually commenting bad things on a beautiful song filled with good advice! Such a shame for him...
whe he sung it in malaysian it was kinda cool some words are similar as tagalog, when i listened it seems like he just saying visayan song din it was even better when he sung the tagalog version :D
barat3786 ahhmm i don`t think so..same also of malaysian,there r also lots of malaysian in philippines...but let`s not fight about this...malaysia and philippines r just look the same,they r equal,they r both beautiful country and lots of nice people...
SHOCKS! MALAYSIA? *Land of Negative Growth in the Region *Federation at Economic Recession *Falling state & aspirants people *Society of illiteracy *Island of Failed GDP Growth WHILE THE PHILIPPINES ¢Internationally acclaimed as N-11 ¢Globally recognized as NEWLY INDUSTRIALIZED COUNTRY ¢BEST PERFORMING Currency in Asia ¢A nation of skills and literacy ¢A Positive Economic growth in the Region ¢40 Consecutive Quarters Economic Growth at the middle of crisis
nice version...mr. freddie aguilar of philippines is the original singer and they used to translate this song to different languages especially in japan it was really a big hit song frm mr. aguilar...
a very beautiful song i was very happy to hear this..my filipino friends do love to sing tis...actually the sound & the word are very meaningful to me.....cause im a guitarist so i know what it means....sorrow & saddness
very touching, especially for felix to sing the tagalog version of Anak. : ) wonderful! by the way, can anyone write down (in english pls) what felix said in the beginning? thanks
