YOUR FAITH AS MINE

DAIPARA ISLAM
Nelson Singson Dino
Bang bukun pag-imanan
Agad lima puklasan
Bang mayan kapawlihan
Hinang sin kapulisan
Suwiksik wayi hinaran
Supaya kapitikan
Misan mumuk da kuman
Marayi’ hipami mammam
Katarrangan asubuhun
Bahasahun kitaun
Misan ba rayang awun
Pangayuan dakaw puun
Daipara hangka agama
Muslim pagkahi ra
Bang bukun hadja ba
Marayi’ mabinasa
Dumagan na tumapuk
Sambil jamban maubug
Masi masi mabatuk
Sin manga nautuk
Buli’ paglapdusan
Sin uway sagingsingan
Bang masaggaw ha ran
Kuralun tu bulan
Misan magsama-sibu’
Bang makadayyus katu’’
Pag-aasagan da dugu
Subay di’ hinangun datu’
Sarina sabalan
Asal biya’ na hayan
Addat sin manusiya
Bukun sibu’ katan
LET THE OWNER DECIDE
Aliazer Abdurajim
I was a luxury dreamer
But I’m still a looser
Anywhere I go that dream irritates me
Because until now I’m still far from its way
Sometimes I cry and envy my fellow
Sometimes I throw blame to fate
As I saw around they are just like me,
Still looser and many are still becoming looser,
One thing lack on me and them
We didn’t appreciate and cherish the gift of God
Anyway,
I and they still can’t possess that dream
For this life is not ours
Let the Owner decide His own dream!

ONLY IN THIS WORLD
Aliazer Abdurajim
Only in this world
We are divided into races
Have diversed colors and faces
Born to different traditions and cultures
Living on various principles and faiths
Only in this world
We choose leaders to lead
Hire servants to serve
Marry a woman more than to soothe
And find allies to protect
Only in this world
Democracy is valuable
Freedom anywhere shouted
Gold is worthier than ties
Nobility regarded as an advantage
Only in this world
To seek knowledge is obligation
To search the reality as a vision
To sow seeds of belief as vocation
To worship the Almighty as a mission
Only in this world
Everything is transient...and bewares!
We will be too unseen.

RELIGION
Aliazer Abdurajim
Religion is like an endless ocean
Its bottom is on earth
And its peak is in heaven
The Qur’an would not lie
Its serves as our guidance
All Prophets and Friends of God are one
In command
To save the lives of humankind

Aliazer Abdurajim
Bang hadja bukun Islam in mahalga’

Sa’ na hadja imanan kalu ra kumasi
In kunsum mahaba’ hipamuka gusi.
SPIRIT OF DIALOGUE
Nelson Singson Dino
In the name of God,
Most Merciful, Beneficent
The Gracious and Compassionate
That a difference doesn’t’t exist
We are making
We are making harmony
In the eyes of God
Solidarity comes
Sincerity and our hearts
Sensitivity in our senses
That a difference doesn’t’t exist
We are living
We are living in the world of God
Nothing can change the this world of God
That a difference doesn’t’t exist
Oh God we cry for Peace!
Oh God we cry for Peace!
And understand other living faith
That a difference doesn’t’t exist
Written at SILSILAH, Harmony Village, Zamboanga City in summer 2004.
AYAW IN TIKUD-TIKUD
Aliazer Abdurajim
Suy-suy sin kamaasan
Bangsa way kiyarapatan
Agama in palsababan
Hinang panindugan
Islam in simampulna’
Ha isug nakabidda’
Misan bunu’ way hugna’
Ayaw bangsa mahina’
Atas baran tupukun
Kasabunnalan paguwaun
Magjihad in palukun
Sulga’ angan-anganun
Pilak di’ makapi’lad
Ha pulna’ in I’tikad
Gampa siki magtupad
Ayaw in mamurtad
Ayaw muti’ in tikud-tikud
Hangka bangsa magbawgbug
Paluaga in pangatud
Bat way pagtukud-tukud
Kita-a pasawaha
Hula’ mu nabinasa
Bangsa mu way dusa
Satru’ in nagkawasa
Ku’nu mu pa hibalik
Sin ikaw in tagmilik
Mayta’ pakaw magtilik
Anak asawa mu nagtutulik
Ay nakaw magpasandung
In satru’ magdaratung
Asal sila di humundung
Pamaratsaya mu pungun
Satru’ nagkapandayan
Piyaagad ha karayawan
Ay putinga in Qur’an
In bayta’ asal tuman
Magbagay pa-awna
Magpanun misan di’ na
Gampa sila magmula
Ayaw ikaw in muna
Tikud-tikud mu jagahi
Patutuga ha taga-lagi
Kamaasan upihi
Bangsa mu ay pasari…
