Benteng Terakhir Dunia Melayu : Oleh Ninot Aziz

BENTENG TERAKHIR DUNIA MELAYU

Orang kita dah membelah lautan
Luas saujana mata memandang
Bintang di langit menjadi panduan
Tahu tujuan sekali pandang

Dah lama kita kenal darah putih
Tib ubat dan adat berpantang
Dah lama kita berhati bersih
Jangan dibiar di pijak-pijak orang

Orang kita beramah mesra
Menghidang lauk penuhlah meja
Rakan taulan dianggap keluarga
Ambillah semua apa dicita

Lama-lama bertukar kain
Kain batik menjadi kain kasa
Lama-lama kita ke lain
Bumi dipijak milik siapa

Jangan ikut Mat Jenin berangan
Memanjat kelapa mulalah gayat
Jangan Dunia Melayu jadi kenangan
Dalam korpus memori Hikayat

Terkubur benteng terakhir Dunia Melayu

So That I Can Try To Do Something

SO THAT I CAN TRY TO DO SOMETHING

My name is Shahar.
I am a 7 year old kid.
My Daddy says that I am a smart boy.
Why?
Because I ask too many questions.
He said I ask questions that no other kid would normally ask.
Of course I will ask those questions.
Why?
Because I cannot understand why certain things are as what they are.
Because it seems the adults also do not really understand.
But they pretend they do.
Had they understood it, they wouldn't have allowed certain things to happen.
Why?
Because if they had understood it, they would have tried their best to stop it.
I see all the adults ignoring things that happen.
I see those things and I feel I understand what is happening.
How do I know that I understood what was happening?
Well, because I feel the urge to do something to stop what was happening.
So I asked my Daddy to bring me to Syria.
Why?
So that I can try to do something that can stop the other kids dying.
