sampai bila-bila

bismillah

arissa
jangan nangis sayang
babah kat sini
shh shh shh

meh babah dukung meh
meh babah peluk meh

arissa nak berdiri ye
meh babah pegang tangan meh
babah akan pegang tangan arissa
sampai arissa pandai jalan sendiri

jangan nangis sayang
shh shh shh
babah sayang arissa

cuma jangan ditanya
camane babah sayang arissa
nanti bila dah besar
arissa dah ada anak
arissa akan tahu sendiri

nanti bila dah besar
mungkin arissa tak ingat semua ni

tapi babah tetap ingat
arissa babah yang manja ni
sampai bila-bila

ya Allah,
lindungi hidupnya, berkati umurnya
limpahi jalannya dengan nur-Mu

bismillah

in as much as i love my daughter, i dare not to wonder how much my parents love me. Allah, bestowe upon them your unimaginary jannah. muhammad, bless them with your syafa'at.

Wahai tuhan, kasihilah ibubapa kami
sepertimana mereka mengasihi kami
ketika kecilnya kami

will there ever be one when my time comes?

those little things

bismillah

dear Allah, forgive her and bless her for all the meaningful things she did that opened our eyes to see those little things in bigger pictures. yasmin ahmad, al-fatihah.

kaulah laguku

kau irama terindah

tak lagi kudengari

7 months and noisier

owh, i almost forgot. lets talk about my jewel, arissa. she's almost 8 months old now. and if there is anyone outside there telling you that time flies without us realizing, well.. just believe that guy. its true [haha]. i am truly amazed how 'big' she is now. and yes, time does flies - fastly - very very fastly.

arissa dah pandai ape? come, let me tell you, every single thing okay.

'bergelak ketawa' [oh, sudah semestinya. pantang ada yang menegur.]

'menjerit sesuka hati' [pastinya arissa dah tau, dia hanya perlu menjerit, dan segalanya dimakbulkan]

'berdiri' [yep, tapi dengan kedua tangannya dipegang oleh mereka yang lebih dewasa]

'duduk' [ha, yang ni memang dia pandai. dan tidak perlu dipegang sesiapa]

'pegang botol susu sendiri' [erm, masih belum .. masih belum ..]

those words best left unspoken

bismillah

as the last person walks away from my tomb... i recounts ::

the dust is now my bed, embracing and covering

the sand surrounds and engulfing from all directions

and the tomb recounts the story of the darkness of the calamity

and the light has destined that my pleasure is in meeting Allah

where is the kindness of kin?

where are the scores of friends?

where is the bliss of money?

where are the glory of fame and compliments?

the beloved bade farewell to his love and cried my elegy

the tears flow dried out after crying

the vast universe shrank narrowing my space

and the tomb becomes both my ground and sky

fear overwhelms my estrangement

and sadness is my ailment

praying for steadfastness which i swear - is my remedy

sincerely supplicating to the Lord: You are my hope

hoping for heaven - where my bliss shall be attained

this is my end: and the dust is my bed

Farshy Al Turab :: Mishary Al- Arada

will there ever be?

bismillah

because we never know

what will happen tomorrow

we tend not to tolerate with arguments

we tend not to hear opinions

we tend not to show love

appreciate our today

be more forgiving

be more accepting

be more tolerate

be more compassionate

because we never know

will there ever be tomorrow

in memory of: days we do not wish to remember

its february. although the new mentri besar had sworned in and the new excos are due on tuesday, this will surely be remembered for a long time. there has been too much talks on what is right and what is wrong, what ought to be done and what ought not to be done. am i going to care? do i look like i care?

his royal highness learned Sultan cited Section 16 (6) of Undang-undang Tubuh Kerajaan Perak to refuse the ruling party from dissolving the State Legislative Assembly and inflicting further wounds. his royal highness learned Sultan further cited Section 18 (2) of Undang-undang Tubuh Kerajaan Perak to exercise his learned discretion in refusing so.

hence, what went wrong in between? a lack of understanding? a misundertanding? or a grey area where none has been promulgated to cover the same?

as we look up to the sky with broken hearts, we remember these days, as days we do not wish to remember.
