I fell in love all over again with Sami Yusuf.

I can’t remember when was the last time I cry profusely. But this beautifully composed song by him, Try Not To Cry, was by far, the most touching song I’ve ever heard after NowSeeHeart’s Damai Yang Hilang.

The feeling of helplessness engulfed me all night, with the views of innocent children of Palestine suffered from a sin they never made, keep on replaying in my head.

Were we being grateful enough towards all the blessings HE had showered? Or had HIS rahmat only drove us blindly to fulfill one’s desire, thus amounting countless mistakes and errors in life?

Hmm, a little boy shot in the head
Just another kid sent out to get some bread
Not the first murder nor the last
Again and again a repetition of the past
Since the very first day same story
Young ones, old ones, some glory
How can it be, has the whole world turned blind?
Or is it just ’cause it’s only affecting my kind?!
If these walls could speak,
imagine what would they say
For me in this path that I walk on
there’s only one way
Bullets may kill, bones may break
Still I throw stones like David before

I will try not to cry. Pray hard the suffering will be soon over. Pray hard.
