Permaidani

Rimbun dan redup kasihMu
Kau tempat ku berpayung
Di manakah lagi dapat ku rebahkan
Rasa gundah ini

Nun Kau teguh di sana
Pengasih dan penyayang
Pun ku masih terleka
Meneguk ihsanMu
Walau ku sedari

Oh... nyamannya
Bila diperlukan rinduMu
Mengimbaulah sentosa

Bentangkan ku permaidani
Dari baldu berwarna putih
Moga tak ku terasakan
Cubaan yang ku galas ini
Kepada Mu titianku
Hijrahkanlah diri ini

-Aris Ariwatan

Another meaningful lyric...

Live Your Dreams (All or Nothing)

Here, the chance of life, get ready, set, fly high.
Above the fear of your mind, go for it.
It's hit or miss, too late for you to quit.
You gotta show 'em how bad you really want this, so...

Live your dreams, it's not as hard as it may seem.
You gotta work to get the cream, on your hopes you must lean
From your fears, you have to wean yourself.
It's all or nothing, give your everything...

All what you believe, you got to bring the heat.
Set the pace, competitions take the lead.
This is it, all eyes on you.
So stay on point and prove,
that you deserve whats long overdue.

Live your dreams, it's not as hard as it may seem.
You gotta work to get the cream, on your hopes you must lean
From your fears, you have to wean yourself.
It's all or nothing, give your everything...

My heart is still recovering,
From the heartbreak of another kind,
I'm still drying my tears.
Getting over my own fears in my life.
So I wanna make sure this time that I'm strong enough,
To give it my all...

Live your dreams, it's not as hard as it may seem.
You gotta work to get the cream, on your hopes you must lean
From your fears, you have to wean yourself.
It's all or nothing, give your everything...

So you gotta live your dreams,
So don't you be afraid.
Just set the pace, and take the lead,
It's your time to shine..

-Athena Cage

I broke a heart yesterday...

I could see you’re trying hard to score,
But it’s wrong for you to adore
Me, I’m just ordinary in every way,
So, please don’t wait, don’t stay.

You were asking for a chance
For us together to dance
But I’m sorry…I couldn’t say ‘okay’
I know your heart broke yesterday.

Never meant to hurt,
I know the excuses were absurd,
Never meant to play,
I know I broke your heart yesterday.

Even though I know how u might feel
But I don’t have the power to heal.

You better off without me
I just want you to see
Don’t want you to live in grey
So, I broke your heart yesterday.

Believe me when I say,
It’s even hurt when I try to lay
To broke your heart yesterday
There’s a price for me to pay…

p/s i'm sorry...

sometimes i forget....

sometimes i forget who i am
sometimes i forget who you are
sometimes i forget how happy i am
sometimes i forget i only wish upon a star
sometomes i forget how we firstly met
and how it started like a dream
sometimes i forget how it ended
and it makes me wanna scream
sometimes i forget about the fight
and still waiting for you to call
sometimes i forget that you are gone
and don't remember me at all
sometimes i forget i used to love you
and there is nothing to regret
but yet...
sometimes i forget....that i already forget you

time of your life

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth it was worth all the while

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life

Rabiatul Adawiyah

Aku bukan Rabiatul Adawiyah
yang terbenam ke lumpur dengan luluh
diuji duri sekian aduh
akhirnya bangkit menyabun diri
di sumurNya
lalu mencium bau syurga
di malam munajat
mengisi hayatnya dengan Nur Syahadat

Taubat perempuan itu sebening air di kali
mengapung sinar kasih Ilahi
malu seorang aku adalah duri di tumit kaki
mengelupas oleh fana yang perkasa
ketika leka mendandan wajah dengan mimpi
lilih menjadi purba
ketika bertandak mencari arah misteri
dan menunda usia ke esok lusa

Rabiatul Adawiyah, wanita dari mimpi hitam
telah lama menyapa wajah Tuhan
seorang aku masih gementar menentang dendam
kerahang doa, agar tegak kejap tiang iman
biar padah menerjah, biar petaka menyangga

Malam ini
ku pilih diam yang sunyi
untuk berlutut ke dalam diri
yang sangsi mengenal jasad sendiri!
