On the previous post, Helas commented that he didn't have the chance to sing a song to his girlfriend(s). it's not to late to do it now you know. When I was in high school there are two song that my parent use to tease me about when they know that their son doesn't have a girlfriend.

A Man Without Love by Engelbert Humperdinck

I can remember when we walked together
Sharing a love I thought would last forever
Moonlight to show the way so we can follow
Waiting inside her eyes was my tomorrow
Then somethin' changed her mind, her kisses told me
I had no lovin' arms to hold me

Every day I wake up, then I start to break up
Lonely is a man without love
Every day I start out, then I cry my heart out
Lonely is a man without love

Every day I wake up, then I start to break up
Knowing that it's cloudy above
Every day I start out, then I cry my heart out
Lonely is a man without love

I cannot face this world that's fallen down on me
So, if you see my girl please send her home to me
Tell her about my heart that's slowly dying
Say I can't stop myself from crying

Every day I wake up, then I start to break up
Lonely is a man without love
Every day I start out, then I cry my heart out
Lonely is a man without love

Every day I wake up, then I start to break up
Knowing that it's cloudy above
Every day I start out, then I cry my heart out
Lonely is a man without love

Every day I wake up, then I start to break up
Lonely is a man without love
Every day I start out, then I cry my heart out
Lonely is a man without love

Mr Lonely by Bobby Vinton

I am so lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely
Wish I had someone to call on the phone

Now I'm a soldier, a lonely soldier
Away from home through no wish of my own
That's why I'm lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely
I wish that I could go back home

Letters, never a letter
I get no letters in the mail
I've been forgotten, yes, forgotten

Oh how I wonder, how is it I failed

Now I'm a soldier, a lonely soldier
Away from home through no wish of my own
That's why I'm lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely
I wish that I could go back home

Now Helas, you know how I feel when my parent tease their son^_^

Songs For Life Part 1

Am I that easy to forget?

They say you've found somebody new,
But that won't stop my loving you.
I just can't let you walk away,
Forget the love I had for you.

Guess I could find somebody, too,
But I don't wan't no one but you.
How could you leave without regret?
Am I that easy to forget?

Before you leave be sure you find
You want his love much more than mine.
'Cause I'll just say we've never met,
If I'm that easy to forget.

Before you leave be sure you find
You want his love much more than mine.
'Cause I'll just say we've never met,
If I'm that easy to forget.
If I'm that easy to forget.

Salam Aidilfitri to all my friend. Hope that you have a great holidays this year. For me, it's been glad that I went back home to JB. It was pretty same thing that I've during my school years with a quiet n peaceful day. Only the noise from the neighbour playing firecrackers. One of this days I'm gonna burn their houses if they start firing at my yard.hehe
Some of the old vinyl from the old collection. Too bad the turntable doesn't play anymore but I think I will buy a new one if I had some money in the future n it will be an honour if Mr Mus can help me with it.hehe
There are another three of my favourites that I forgot to put it here but I will do it anyway in weeks to come.

Hope everyone is safe n sound so we can start a new chapter of the adventure of life

Memories of 2009: The Last Waltz

My late father have been using his handphone for a year.I remember the last song that my late father requested from me to be store in his handphone. It was 'The Last Waltz by Engelbert Humperdinck'.To me it was a beautiful song when the first time I heard it.But I never thought that it was truly his last waltz with his family.




The Last Waltz

I wondered should I go or should I stay,
the band had only one more song to play.
And then I saw you out the corner of my eye,
a little girl, alone and so shy.
I had the last waltz with you,
two lonely people together.
I fell in love with you,
the last waltz should last forever.
But the love we had was going strong,
through the good and bad we get along.
And then the flame of love died in your eye,
my heart was broke in two when you said goodbye.
I had the last waltz with you...
It's all over now, nothing left to say,
just my tears and the orchestra playing.
La la la la la la la la la,
la la la la la la la la la.
I had the last waltz with you...
La la la la la la la la la.

Even it's called 'The Last Waltz',it will always live on inside of me in memories of my late father

Memories of 2009

On the Friday morning of 10th July 2009, I lost my beloved father after months battling bone cancer. I was there at the hospital, knowing that his time will come. I prayed to Allah if I was going to lose my father, I hope it will be on Friday. Allah answered my prayer and my father has his last breath after the azan for Subuh prayer.
To be honest I wasn’t very close with my late father during his lifetime but to me he was more than a father. He was a teacher, who teaches everything he could from medical, carpentry, electrical basic, engines, agriculture & Islamic studies to his sons. And all his knowledge’s come from his reading & experience. He shows me the beauty of reading and seeking new knowledge. I learn the art of calligraphy from him and to me he was the most skillful calligrapher I always remember. He was a father who always planned ahead for what he want to do and that how he raised his sons, to know and identify what the future hold.
I shared the same interest with my father in many ways. We love to listen to the songs from the 50s & 60s together & having Nescafe when listening to our favourite Keroncong tunes. We love the kampong life even though we live in the heart of Johor Bahru. He teaches his sons the values of taking care the family members & that how me & my 2 younger brothers will always remember: taking care each other & our mother.
2009 also left me with another sad moment when I lost my beloved grandmother on 15th January & now what left for me is my mother. To me this three people are what I treasured most.

And what I can do for my beloved father & grandmother is always recite Al-Fatihah & pray that Allah will bless their soul.

Amin...

One of my first sketch of Nuur Aida Syakira

Nuur Aida Syakira was my first comics that I wrote few years back in the year 2000. It's a story how friendship sometimes is the biggest love of all.This is how it goes:

Perjalanan hidup sebagai manusia kadang-kala mengembirakan dan kadang-kala memeritkan. Apatah lagi sebagai seorang remaja. Mengharungi kehidupan yang penuh dengan dugaan dan cabaran. Namun itulah erti menjalani liku-liku kehidupan. Banyak perkara yang perlu difikirkan dalam kehidupan sebagai remaja, dari masalah kerjaya dimasa hadapan ke masalah cinta yang akan dialami. Tapi masalah-masalah ini akan amat penting dalam mempersiapkan seseorang itu ke alam dewasa. Pancaroba kehidupan apabila bergelar dewasa akan mempertemukan kita dengan teman yang sentiasa ada, iaitu mengenal erti tanggungjawab. Tetapi jika ada masalah, luahkan jangan disimpan. Jika disimpan akan membebankan jiwa. Kalau boleh luahkan pada seseorang insan yang memahami. Kita tidak akan tahu di mana dan bila seorang insan yang memahami itu akan muncul ketika kita dilanda masalah.

Pernahkah melihat cinta di balik tabir? Cinta yang berputik dari perkenalan tidak kenal rupa. Dari jauh berkenalan hanya suara kedengaran. Bermesra tanpa mengenal siapa dirinya. Tanpa tahu cantik atau burukkah dia. Tanpa kemesraan terjalin dari berpegang tangan. Tapi keikhlasan tiba-tiba muncul. Keakraban berputik hari demi hari. Tanpa cinta di balik tabir, hati mula resah. Sekali terdengar suara, berdegup jantung bagaikan guruh melanda. Cinta tiba-tiba mekar dari biasa. Hati timbul sayang teramat sangat. Si dia muncul dalam suara. Selama ini berdakapan dalam mimpi ingin bertemu. Tetapi dalam kerinduan itu adakalanya mendatangkan keresahan. Kebimbangan ini wujud akibat hadirnya rasa curiga pada cinta di balik tabir. Jika si dia tidak mahu bersua muka, nyatalah selama ini dia telah menipu. Jika dia ingin benar berjumpa....nyatalah selama ini dia telah berlaku jujur. Berkenalan di balik tabir ingin bersua muka rasa serba-salah pula. Banyak bermain di benak fikiran. Salah satu darinya ialah sudikah si dia menerima rupa paras dirinya? Tapi ... jika ini bertitik tolak dengan nilai persahabatan, wajarkah rupa paras diambil kira? Apabila ditakdirkan bertemu juga, cinta dibalik tabir telah tersingkap. Mata bertemu mata. Akhirnya yang dilindungi selama ini telah terserlah. Mengukuhkan lagi apa yang telah dipupuk ketika di balik tabir. Hidup berpasangan memang menjadi impian setiap manusia. Tapi ada diantara mereka tidak bernasib baik. Tapi sebenarnya dalam setiap antara kita sememangnya sudah ditakdirkan bersama. Siapakah itu? Bila sampai masanya...kita akan tahu.

Mungkin benar kata orang, persahabatan itu kadang-kala lebih indah dari percintaan. Berkawan adalah lebih baik dari bercinta. Namun tidak semua orang sedari, yang persahabatan itu satu percintaan. Dimana ia lebih hebat daripada percintaan yang sebenar. Hati manusia mudah berubah tapi apa yang dicari mungkin akan ditemui dalam sebuah persahabatan. Kadang-kala kita terpaksa menunggu untuk mendapatkan cinta. Mungkin ia memeningkan kepala tetapi biarlah ia berlalu dan percayalah satu hari nanti akan datang cinta yang dicari itu.

Cinta itu fitrah kita, siapalah yang tiada perasaan hendak bercinta. Cinta itu nikmat Allah, jangan salah guna cukuplah..cinta pada orang yang cinta pada Allah. Tetapi cinta sebenarnya ialah pada Yang Maha Esa, pada Rasul-Nya, pada Islam dan pada al-Quran serta As-sunnah kerana itulah cinta sejati, cinta yang lahir dari hati.

I never finish the comics since I lost all the first sketch & storyboards of the story but the memories remain.
