the veil

They say, oh poor girl, you’re so beautiful you know
It’s a shame that you cover up your beauty so,

She just smiles and graciously responds reassuringly,
This beauty that I have is just one simple part of me,
This body that I have, no stranger has the right to see,
These long clothes, this shawl I wear, ensure my modesty
Faith is more essential than fashion, wouldn’t you agree?

This hijab,
This mark of piety,
Is an act of faith,a symbol,
For all the world to see,
A simple cloth, to protect her dignity,
So lift the veil from you heart to see the heart of purity.

They tell her, Girl don’t you know
This is the west and you’re free?
You don’t need to be oppressed,
Ashamed of your femininity,
She just shakes her head and
She speaks assuredly,

See the bill-boards and magazines,
That lines check-out isles,
With their phone painted faces and their
Air-brushed smiles?
Well their sheer clothes and low cut gowns
They are really not for me,
You call it freedom, I call it anarchy

This hijab,
This mark of piety,
Is an act of faith, a symbol,
For all the world to see,
A simple cloth, to protect her dignity.

So lift the veil from your heart to see the heart of purity,
Lift the veil from your heart and seek the heart of purity.

mempunyai 2 personaliti? hehe menakutkan? xlah. bukan 2 personaliti. org mukmin itu akan sentiasa ada 2 tarikan. tarikan iman n tarikan syaitan. mungking dlm blog ini sy akan bahasakan diri sy,'saya' atau 'aku'. ketahuilah bahawa 'aku' itu merupakan diri yg lepas atau diri yg dipenuhi emosi. manakala 'saya' ialah diri yg ingin berubah kearah kebaikan. hah pening? silalah pening. kui3
