Hikayat di bahtera Jumantara


Aku susuli takdir yang melambai
Aku rentangi tikar yang sehelai.

Di mana angin akan membawa diriku
Di situlah takdir menantiku.

Camar berterbangan
Camar berkicauan.

Aku berlabuh di lautan yang luas
Berlindung di bawah angkasa yang tiada batas.

Aku berhenti bukan untuk selamanya
Aku berhenti sekadar mencari ilham yang sewajarnya.

Bersama bayu aku berlegar
Mencari makna dibalik tabir hidup nan pudar.

Ombak gelora laut selatan
Menghembat bahteraku tanpa belas kasihan.

Langit yang cerah kian kelabu
Badai pula semakin bersatu.

Aku meneruskan perlayaran bahtera
Dengan diiringi zikir dan doa.

Semoga selamat mencium daratan
Semoga usahaku mendapat keberkatan.

Old man's beard


Don’t want to be an old man's beard
Always sad
Not spared
Don’t want to be an old man's beard
Hanging on to life so weird
With only love as a blissful shade

As winter snuggles
Life turns to brittle
Every step taken
Every promise’s broken
As summer shines
Smiles began to unwind
Tears soon resign
And a new chapter begins

Don’t want to be an old man’s beard
Always counting the beat
Waiting for the singing bird
Don’t want to be an old man’s beard
Wondering where my love at,
In the wide open crowd.

Here I will wait
Here I will sit
Waiting for your silhouette
Never wanting to move my feet
My love will wait
Just for us to unite

This is me


Words like tender
Soft spoken like silk
Every page I turn I began to wonder
Spare me some milk

People are walking by
They laugh and they smile
Listening to my story
A life fueled with denial

I give everything I had
Give all that I can offer
To love a life without being afraid
Till the end of time come together

This is me
This is my story
This is my glory
This is me

Between this parted pages
I rest my hopes and dreams
So I may heal these bruises
Gently as it seems

Life needs time to think
It shows that we are just human
Perhaps that is our missing link
That is the only thing that makes us human

Ada lagi cinta


Hadirmu mencipta lembaran baru
Mengundang harapan dan rindu
Namun tanpa senyuman mu
Bagai suria dibalik awan nan kelabu

Ku renung kembali detik penuh makna
Menyingkap kisah suka dan duka
Aku hilang dari pandangan ikhlas mu
Hanya untuk melihat waktu cepat berlalu

Dedaunan cinta gugur layu ke bumi
Walau hakikatnya tiada ku sedari
Cuma diremangnya malam
Mimpi indah akan pudar menjadi seram
Hati ku kini bagai dilanda badai
Rindu ku kusut tak terlerai

Nama mu ku sahut bertalu
Nama mu ku tiup bersama bayu
Mana mungkin engkau akan kembali
Aku pula tidak akan mengenang lagi
Biarkan hidup kita berdua dibawa arus waktu
Mungkin satu hari nanti kita akan bertemu

Let love be

How I wish to be with you,
When there are so much things to do,
In the day or in the night,
I hold your hand tight,
When you shed tears,
Lay down on my shoulder,
Life is moving fast,
Love is growing vast,
We are not perfect,
We are not in a conflict,
We only know how to love and care,
May our love blooms in the air.

Concrete heart


Under the pouring rain,
Soaking wet,
I walk this lane,
Bringing along a beating heart.

I keep it safe,
I keep it warm,
While threading the land of broken hope,
Protecting it from the on going storm.

I travel so far,
Only to see you,
I thread under the stars,
Weaving clouds like tissues.

I can only say that I love you...

An anniversary that no one remembers.


Sunny beaches
Friendly skies
Warm weather
Cool breeze in the air

At the corner is where she sits
Looking rather sad
Folding pages of dairy she writes
'...when will he understand...'

An old man drinks at the bar
Once a war hero in Tigrid
Now is just a loner
Drinking his life away with regret

A married couple are in an argument
Never to come on a conclusion
Fading memories of such sweet moment
A bond that went stone-cold and beyond

Children are celebrating birthday party
Where actually it is not anyone's birthday
They can only pretend
Laughing their way to uncertainty

Today is my anniversary
All I can see are people with their own matter
Hiding emotions in many ways
Still
Today is not like any other day and that no one bothers to remember
