歌曲：巴厘島 所屬專輯：經典金曲 第一輯 演唱者： 潘秀瓊 http://www.xiami.com/song 潘秀瓊 - 巴厘島 ﹝印尼民謠﹞作詞：方忭 中文原唱者為潘秀瓊 你可曾聽說有個巴厘島，就在那印度尼西亞， 那島上風景美麗如圖畫，誰都會深深愛上它。 只要你一朝來到巴厘島，走向那山隈又水涯， 就彷彿世外桃源安樂鄉，誰不會輕易離開它。 島上的女兒家，個個是秀麗艷如花， 她舞蹈又歌唱，那歌聲美妙舞態多風雅。 你可曾聽說有個巴厘島，就在那印度尼西亞， 那島上風景美麗如圖畫，誰都會深深愛上它。 |

Pulau Bali sung by : Waljinah
Tempat penghiburan hati Disana banyak kebudayaan Indonesia yang asli Pulau Bali dengan dariannya Yang disertai nyanyian sudah termashyur Di seluruh dunia pun sangatiah digemarkang Banyak kaum pelancong yang datang Mengunjungi pulau Bali Untuk menyaksikan keindahan Pemandangan alam murni Pulau Bali pulau Mahajaya Kebanggaan Indonesia Berkat peninggalan purbakala Termashyur slama lamanya Pulau Bali pulau Mahajaya Kebanggaan Indonesia Berkat peninggalan purbakala Termashyur slama lamanya |
"你可曾聽過有個巴厘島，就在那印度尼西亞。 。 。"
很小的時候就听過這首歌。一直以來對巴厘島的認識都不多。印像中那是一個神秘的國度。有著美麗的沙灘和等待自己男人捕魚回來的女人。
很多朋友都去過了巴厘島。每個人回來之後都會說巴厘島多美、多好玩。就連我爸媽都去過了。趁著亞航機票促銷，我一定也要去啦！
