Bangunlah!

Salam..

We were given so many prizes
We changed the desert into oasis
We built buildings of different lengths and sizes
And we felt so very satisfied
We bought and bought
We couldn't stop buying
We gave charity to the poor 'cause
We couldn't stand their crying
We thought we paid our dues
But in fact
To ourselves we're just lying

Oh...I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place
I'm walking with my head lowered from my race
Yes it's easy to blame everything on the west
When in fact all focus should be on ourselves

We were told what to buy and we'd bought
We went to London, Paris and Costa del sol
We made show we were seen in the most exclusive shops
Yes we felt so very satisfied

We felt our money gave us infinite power
We forgot to teach our children about history and honour
We didn't have any time to lose
When we were.. (were)
So busy feeling so satisfied

I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place
I'm walking with my head lowered from my race
Yes it's easy to blame everything on the west
When in fact all focus should be on ourselves

We became the visuals without a soul
despite the heat
Our homes felt so empty and cold
To fill the emptiness
We bought and bought
Maybe all the fancy cars
And blings will make us feel satisfied

My dear brother and sister
It's time to change inside
Open your eyes
Don't throw away what's right aside
Before the day comes
When there's nowhere to run and hide
Now ask yourself 'cause Allah's watching you

Is He satisfied?
Is Allah satisfied?
Is Allah satisfied?
Is Allah satisfied?

Oh..I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place
I'm walking with my head lowered from my race
Yes it's easy to blame everything on the west
When in fact all focus should be on ourselves

Awaken oleh Maher Zain

Sedarkah kalian apa yang sedang menimpa kita sekarang?
Masalah sosial semakin berleluasa, adab juga semacam pupus, kita pula ralit dengan kepentingan diri. Ampun, ya Tuhan..ampun..
Tika dunia huru-hara, kau bising salahkan pemimpin dan kuasa besar.
Apa mereka dengar bisingan kau? Apa aja yang kau buat untuk bantu dunia?





Oh Dunia, usia kau sudah tidak panjang..
Wahai Manusia, ayuh bangunlah! Bangkitlah dari tidur. Kerja kita masih berlambak, hidup kita pun belum tentu lama.
Wahai Manusia, banyak sungguh kelemahan kita. Ayuh perbaikilah! Agar kita menjadi Manusia yang lebih baik.
Wahai Diri, jangan jadi hipokrit. Jangan..



Ampun, Ya Allah..
Bimbinglah dan permudahkanlah pergerakan kami menuju redha-Mu..
Aameen..

Moga ini bukan lakonan semata...
