RAMADHAN

Ramadhan dinanti penuh kerinduan
Jamadil Awal, Jamadil Akhir, Rejab, Syaaban,
Ramadhan dihitung saban hari.

Bulan rindu itu hadir juga.

Kau bulan kerinduan,
penyiram jiwa gersang,
membersih dosa bersarang.

Apabila ...
malam pertamamu menjengah,
bertiup al-mutsiiratu dari Asry,
menggerakkan pohon-pohon syurga,
terdengar sayup-sayup merdu suara,
tak pernah terdengar oleh telinga,
berbisik sang bidadari,
kahwinkan lah aku,
dengan hambamu yang berpuasa.

Ramadhanku,..
tawaran demi tawaran kau sajikan,
buat perindumu yang beriman,
membentang samudera keampunan,
bernaung kasih tiada ketepian.

Ramadhanku,..
hadirmu penuh keberkatan,
sarat rahsia keindahan,
melimpah nur kebaikan,
memancar rahsia Al-Rahman.

Ramadhanku,..
kau bagaikan pesta ibadah,
mengajar nafsuku bermujahadah,
tiap saat mu terkandung hikmah,
memekar kuntuman hidayah.

Ramadhanku,..
setahun ku merindu,
kau kini kumiliki,
hari-hari mu pantas berlalu,
kuatkan aku Ya Rahman,
Mengaut segala ganjaran,
berpisah dengan keredhaan.

Ya.. Ramadhanku..

As I look into your eyes,
I see all the reasons why my life's worth a thousand skies
You're the simplest love I've knownAnd the purest one I'll own
You know you'll never be alone

You
Are the reason I could fly
And because of you I don't have to wonder why
You
There's no more just getting by
You're the reason I feel so alive

Though these words I sing are true
They still fail to capture you
As mere words can only do
How do I explain that smile
And how it turns my world around
Keeping my feet on the ground

I will sooth you if you fall
I'll be right there if you call
You're my greatest love of all
