When you were a child
You ever said to me;
“You are ugly!
You don’t have skin
Black, and always black
You don’t have perfect organs,
You are worst of the worst creations
In this earth.
WHO ARE YOU?!
Why do you run, when I try to chase after you?
Why do you follow me, when I leave you?
Why your high is not same?
You look short in the middle of the day.
In other time, you look so long.
WHO ARE YOU?
Why you never talk to me, whereas we’re so close?
Why you adhere in my body?
WHO ARE YOU?!”
Oh, boy!
Indeed, I wanted to explain about myself to you,
but I couldn’t do it.
I didn’t know how to explain it.
I’m sure, today you don’t need the answers.
I know you have known, who I am.
I just want to say, and
I hope it is not too late.
I AM YOUR SHADOW,
And DUNYA is likes me.
I really hope,
You can hear me.
I AM YOUR SHADOW,
And DUNYA is likes me.
من اراد الدنيا فعليها با لعلم
ومن اراد الا خرة فعليها بالعلم
ومن اراد هما فعليهما با لعلم
Someone who wants “dunya” (property, throne,woman), s/he needs science of it. And someone who wants “akhirat” (a good life in hereafter), s/he also needs a science of it. And someone who wants them (dunya and akhirat), indeed, s/he needs science of them.
