ALLAH THE CREATOR_

How this big earth came to be,

And everything that we see,

Even things in outer space,

Came about by Allah's grace.



How people lived so long ago,

Lessons that we have to know,

And who does Allah love the best,

And why He puts us all to test.



How He makes the raindrops fall,

And what about the tree so tall,

What about the plants that grow,

And reasons for the wind to blow.



How about the oceans wide,

And different animals that we ride,

Not to mention mountains high,

And the magnificence of the sky.



Find out what we must not do,

Things that are bad for me and you,

Also things that are right,

And how we can all gain insight.



And the nature and the glory,

Unfolds like a beautiful story,

Of Almighty as He talks to you,

Conveying a message pure and true,

Read it up in the Qur`aan,

It will strengthen your Imaan.

Tuhan, Aku Cinta Padamu

Aku lemas
Tapi berdaya
Aku tidak sambat rasa sakit
atau gatal

Aku pengin makan tajin
Aku tidak pernah sesak nafas
Tapi tubuhku tidak memuaskan
untuk punya posisi yang ideal dan wajar

Aku pengin membersihkan tubuhku
dari racun kimiawi

Aku ingin kembali pada jalan alam
Aku ingin meningkatkan pengabdian
kepada Allah

Tuhan, aku cinta padamu
