Flood in Jakarta.

Allah named me as Rain
I’m one of Allah’s mercies
Indeed!
I come to the earth
Washing its face
Giving the coolness and rest.

When I come
The true believers will pray and say
O Allah! let it be a beneficial downpour
O mankind!
It isn’t my intention
Making FLOOD on the earth
Wallah,
I’m mercy of Allah.

If you see FLOOD in everywhere
It isn’t my fault
Please don’t blame me!
Who throw the rubbish into rivers?
I need ways to flow to the sea
But, the trash
Blocks my ways
I have to flow to the sea
To gather with my family
It’s Allah’s law.

It is Allah who sends the winds, and they stir the clouds and spread them in the sky however He wills, and He makes them fragments so you see the rain emerge from within them. And when He causes it to fall upon whom He wills of His servants, immediately they rejoice. [Ar-Rum:48]
Do you not see that Allah drives clouds? Then He brings them together, then He makes them into a mass, and you see the rain emerge from within it. And He sends down from the sky, mountains [of clouds] within which is hail, and He strikes with it whom He wills. The flash of its lightening almost takes away the eyesight. [An-Nur: 43]

I’m sorry, if I flow to your homes
To the shops,
Block your ways
Flooding your town
Please don’t blame me!

O mankind! I suggest you
Keep clean your environment!
Keep green the jungles!
I’m sure,
You’ll get me as nice rain
Not as FLOOD again!
