Tulips blooming yellow and red
A Happy Birthday wish to you, I said
Roses red and pink and smelling sweet
I hope you like the birthday treat!

My Lady Boss

October 3, 2009 by adikbongsu

My lady Boss

I have a lady boss
Her retirement is such a loss
What makes her a good boss?
Is that she listens and rarely is she cross.

I have a lady boss
Her retirement is such a loss
Still I wish her all the best
And that she be forever blessed

I have a lady boss
Her retirement is such a loss
With a heavy heart, I say “Thank you, Mrs Yeo”
For all the care, generosity and kindness that you show

So many years we have been working together
Now I hope you have a good and fair retirement weather
Truly my heart is heavy
For you’ve been a part of my family…

Mirror mirror on the wall

September 25, 2009 by adikbongsu

Mirror mirror on the wall
Which is real and which is false?
Is it the face I show to friends and family
Or the face I show to you Oh! Almighty?

Mirror mirror on the wall
Which is real and which is false?
This desire to help the poor
Is it sincere or is it just a lure?

Mirror mirror on the wall
Which is real and which is false?
The eyes that cries puffily
Or the heart that cries silently?

Mirror mirror on the wall
Will I be able to stand up tall?
To feel the love and the bless
Of the One I hope to impress?

Mirror mirror on the wall
Show me the way so I may not fall
From disgrace, from His gaze
Show me so that I may be true to His ways!

Selamat Hari Raya

September 17, 2009 by adikbongsu

Rempeyek ketumpi rangup dimakan
Enak dimakan bersama nasi
Datangnya Syawal akan dirayakan
Adakah kepulangan Ramadhan akan ditangisi?

Dendangan lagu raya rancak diputarkan
Memang terhibur bila kedengaran
Haruskah kita beraya sakan?
Setelah nafsu disekat selama sebulan?

Pakaian indah dan sedondon digayakan
Cantik dipandang lagi menawan
Yok! raikan Syawal dengan kemenangan
Dengan mengawal nafsu kita berterusan

Selamat Hari Raya
Maaf Zahir dan Batin

The heart

May 19, 2009 by adikbongsu

A heart that beats 100,000 times a day
Must be constantly nourish without delay
Prayers and zikr as breath and food
So that the heart remains constant and good

A heart that pumps 100 gallons of blood per hour
Can’t beat a strong spiritual heart with power
Power of taqwa and desire to do good
As it strive for Allah’s love and mercy as it should

Oh! Be still this heart of mine
For I know how great you pine
To be one with the people of hereafter
People of Jannah, in a world that last forever!

Love

April 28, 2009 by adikbongsu

Sitting in the office one day
I text my loved one and wait
While waiting I started to pray
Oh Allah! Do link our fate
Allow me to be with her
If not now maybe later
Let our love stir
Stir towards you, our Creator!

Soup for the soul

April 23, 2009 by adikbongsu

Oh no! What shall I cook for today?
Perhaps a soup for the soul serve on a tray?
Hmm, I will need a pound of wisdom to start
Put in the pot and boil it together with the heart
Add in a quart of intellect and a dash of courage
Stir it gently and patiently like a wise old sage
And voila! It is now ready to be serve in a bowl
A special soup for a very special soul

Princess Roro Melati

March 26, 2009 by adikbongsu

I am Princess Roro Melati
I am pretty, chirpy and witty
I am a princess tall in height
I am a princess strong in might
Come and be my friend I say
For I am a princess who loves to play!

Munawwar

March 15, 2009 by adikbongsu

Munawwar, from a seed to a tree you stand
You’re now firmly rooted in Allah’s land
Shading us sisters from the torrent rain
Shading us from life sloping train

Munawwar, your trunk lighted so bright
You’re like the star guiding us at night
Your branches reach out to those who crawl
Assisting and teaching them to stand tall

Munawwar, the whispers of your leaves
Gently teaches those who believes
That the world is just another stop
Before finalising our journey to the top

Circle of life

March 13, 2009 by adikbongsu

Days of misunderstanding and sorrow
Days of the heart pricked by many arrows
Finally came the night of revelation
Which end the hearts of its frustration

A circle of sisters, a circle of sharing
A circle of caring, a circle of tearing
Life tangled us with its ups and downs
But the heart must strive always to be sound

A hug and a profession of love
A symbol of a renewal to my beloved
Forgiveness and the expression of the above
Signals the renewal of sisterly love
