God is the Light

How great the wonders of the heavens?

And the timeless beauty of the night

How great - then how great the Creator?

And its stars like priceless jewels

Far beyond the reach of kings

Bow down for the shepherd guiding him home.

But how many eyes are closed to the wonder of this night?

Like pearls, hidden deep beneath a dark stream of desires.

But like dreams vanish with the call to prayer

And the dawn extinguishes night - here too are signs

God is the Light

God is the Light

How great the beauty of the earth and the creatures

Who dwell on her

How great - then how great the Creator?

As its mountains pierce the clouds

High above the lives of men

Weeping rivers for thousands of years

But how many hearts are closed

To the wonders of this sight?

Like birds in a cage, asleep with closed wings

But like work stops with the call to prayer

And the birds recite - here too are signs

God is the Light

God is the Light

How great the works of man and the things he makes?

How great - then how great the Creator?

Though he strives to reach the heavens

He can barely survive

The wars of the world he lives in

Yet how many times he's tried, himself to immortalize?

Like his parents before him in the Garden of Eden

But like the sun sets with the call to prayer

And surrenders to the night

Here too are signs

God is the Light Everlasting

God is the Light Everlasting

God is the Light Everlasting

God is the Light Everlasting


" Sesungguhnya dalam penciptaan langit dan bumi, silih bergantinya malam dan siang, bahtera yang berlayar di laut membawa apa yang berguna bagi manusia, dan apa yang Allah turunkan dari langit berupa air, lalu dengan air itu Dia hidupkan bumi sesudah mati (kering)nya dan Dia sebarkan di bumi itu segala jenis haiwan dan pengisaran angin dan awan yang dikendalikan antara langit dan bumi; sungguh (terdapat) tanda-tanda (keesaan dan kebesaran Allah) bagi kaum yang memikirkan." [ 2:164 ]

p/s: Tonight, i saw a very bright moon..surrounded by fair clouds, in the dark sky. Bebola bercahaya saujana mata memandang..terasa ingin digapai tetapi tangan tak sampai. Perasaan itu, terlalu sukar untuk digambarkan..sgt terpegun dgn keindahan yg terhampar di depan mata..syukur pada-Nya yang memberi peluang diri ini untuk menikmati kurniaan itu..kurniaan paling indah. Subhanallah betapa cantiknya langit malam ini..semoga nikmat ini akan berterusan untukku kecapi..ameen..=)
