Keabdian
Devoutly Yours
Betapa ku dambakan-Mu Ya Rabb
How I miss You so My Lord
Baru sedetik ku hirup udara punya-Mu
Only a sniff of Your air that I breathe
Hatiku gedebuk dan seru
My heart pumps up and thrills
Sebak rasa dadaku di jiwa-Mu
Sorrow felt in my soul of Yours
Mukaku bibi nan sipi, kelopak mataku dilinangi
My face cowered in timidity, my eyes watery
Lillahi aku mau merunggau, merangkak
I swear I wanna crawl on bended knees
Demi menjalani kurnia Ilahi kakiku dari-Mu
Struggling to walk a pair of God-given legs
Aku berlari ingin sekali mendampingi-Mu
I run in desperation to come to You
Degupan jantungku semakin deras sesak
My heart beats faster in adrenaline rush
Namun ku jatuh tersungkur menangisi-Mu
But I fall and cry in tears for You my God
Aku telah menzalimi diriku, Ya Allah
I’ve failed You and humiliated myself
Tapi aku masih berpegang teguh akan janji-Mu
Still, I firmly hold on to Your Blessed Promise
Setiap makhluk-Mu yang bergelimang ‘ngan dosa
Every creature of Yours shrouded over with sins
Masih diberi peluang dan harapan nan kegelapan
There’s light at the end of the gloomy, dark tunnel
Aku hanya perlu sujud dan mengabdikan jiwa ragaku
All I have to do is bow and kneel to smell Your earth
Biar hama debu meresap menusuk ke lubang hidung
Let the dusty germs seep through my nostrils
Yang penting jeritan batinku dan kehibaan naluri
As long as my silent scream and damned senses
Akan bisa menembusi keheningan, kesepian dini
Penetrate the quiet dawn of peaceful tranquility
Aku mencintai sedalam-dalamnya KeEsaan-Mu
I purely and deeply love the Only One Almighty
Keris Warisan

Courtesy of peace.love and kindness.You write wonderful poems that keeps me reminded of our lord the Almighty.
when fear suffocates my mind and cowardice overtakes my soul,
reading this poem left me teary expressing regrets
but still not wholeheartedly.
Forgive me when my humanly heart fluctuates like a hypocrite in your faith
with your promises we should never hesitate
for you are one and only and eternally my god.
Alhamdulillah you remind me in any possible means to return to you ya Allah.
