AL-MU ALLIM

We once had a Teacher
The teacher of teacher
He changed the world for the better
And make us better creatures,
O Allah we've shamed ourselves
We've strayed from Al-Mu'allim
Surely we've wronged ourselves
What will we say in front Him?
O Mu'allim

He was Muhammad salla Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam
Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind
He was Muhammad salla Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam
Muhammad, mercy upon Mankind
Teacher of all Mankind

Abal Qasim
Ya Habibi ya Muhammad
Ya Shafi'i ya Muhammad
Khayru khalqillahi Muhammad
Ya Mustafa ya Imamal Mursalina
Ya Mustafa ya Shafi' al Alamina

He prayed while others slept
While others ate he fast
While they would laugh he wept
Until he breathed his last
He only wish was for us to be
Among the ones who prosper
Ya Mu'allim peace be upon you
Truly you are our Teacher
O Mu'allim

Ya Habibi ya Muhammad
Ya Shafi'i ya Muhammad
Ya Rasuli ya Muhammad
Ya Bashiri ya Muhammad
Ya Nadhiri ya Muhammad
Ishqu Qalbi ya Muhammad
Nuru Ayni ya Muhammad

He taught us to be just and kind
and to feed the poor and hungry
Help the wayfarer and the orphan child
And to not be cruel and miserly
He speech was soft and gentle
Like a mother stroking her child
Her mercy and compassion
Were most radiant when he smiled

Abal Qasim
Ya Habibi ya Muhammad
Ya Shafi'i ya Muhammad
Khayru Khalqillahi Muhammad
Ya Mustafa Ya Imamal Mursalina
Ya Mustafa ya Shafi' al Alamina

WALID

I recall the iron hand
Held me safe in its graps
Like sapphire need no words
Everyones I understood

In the wind came a sound
Let me far from our town
Searching for another way
Now in the dark I will embrace

Walid..
In my dream I see his face
That the tears cant erase
Then I wake in despair
And east my cry into the earth

Walid..
The child in mya fathers house
I see running through the opened gates
It's me wondering out across the sand
Stranger in a lonely land

Walid..
I see a child in my father house
Running through the opened gates
Walid its me Walid..

CHITA-CHITA

Kala berkayuh menuju pantai
Kerap bersua ragam halangan
Tidak semua hasratkan sampai
Kadang terbentur di tengah jalan

Tapi bila kaki talah melangkah
Jangan dikenang lagi akan kembali
Walaupun tiang layar berderak patah
Namun sebelum sampai jangan berhenti

Janganlah hati beragak singgah
Kerna melihat bulan indah menarik
Bukan semua yang nampak indah
Tahan luntur di panas terik

Bukan semua chita-chita
Dapat dicapai dengan mudahnya
Tapi ku yakin di balik derita
Bahagia menanti sesudahnya

Bila bintang tak juga terbit
Harus tabah hati menerima
Yakinlah bila bulan dah sabit
Esok lusa pasti purnama

TARIKAN NAFASKU YANG TERAKHIR

Kini saat yang terakhir
Ku pinta maaf kepadamu
Jauh dari lubuk hatiku
Tak pernah ku dendam padamu

Bila engkau tak percaya
Ku rela korban jiwa raga
Kini saat yang penghabisan
Ku harap kau datang kepadaku

Berulang kali ku nyatakan
Aku sayang padamu
Berulang kali ku meminta
Peluklah belailah daku

Oh itu tak pernah terjadi
Semua harapan belaka
Nafasku yang terakhir ini
Hanyalah ku tujukan padamu

GURINDAM JIWA

Tuai padi antara masak
Esok jangan layu-layuan
Intai kami antara nampak
Esok jangan rindu-rinduan

Anak cina pasang lukah
Lukah dipasang di Tanjung Jati
Di dalam hati tidak ku lupa
Sebagai rambut bersimpul mati

Batang selasih permainan budak
Daun selasih dimakan kuda
Bercerai kasih talak tiada
Seribu tahun kembali juga

Burung merpati terbang seribu
Hinggap seekor di tengah laman
Hendak mati di hujung kuku
Hendak berkubur di tapak tangan

Kalau tuan mudik ke hulu
Carikan saya bunga kemboja
Kalau tuan mati dahulu
Nantikan saya di pintu syurga
