The Sinner

<English version>

Twenty-one years ago,

I was born in this world.

Everyone laughed happily,

and I cried.

Year after year,

I went through with so many kinds of

experiences and feelings.

Either the pain or the joy,

all I've tasted.

But one is true,

I live with sins.

I’m walking on HIS Earth,

but I’m still swinging proudly.

And God still allows me,

to step on HIS amazing Earth.

I have parents

who always love me,

but I still disobey them.

And God still allows us

to life happily.

When I feel my life is hard

and no longer know where I should complain,

God is always there to hear me,

and brighten my way.

But I am just blinded by the darkness

until I begin to forget HIM

when I'm happy again.

When my life is really full of sins, and

when I just deny everything,

HIS blessings and gifts, and

when I always feel it’s not enough,

God remains loving me and

bestow all HIS grace to me.

How embarrassing!

If I remember all of my stupidity,

I'm just being useless

and full of sin.

What a pity! Just because of sins.

Though life is only temporary.

All of the things in this world

will come back to their owner.

What am I actually looking for?

Happiness?

Because I have got everything I want?

Or

Wealth?

Because I can have all of the money?

Or,

Success?

Because I can reach my goal?

Really, all of those will come true

if I remain on Thy way, my Lord.

If I remain grateful for all of Thy gifts.

If I remain staying patiently on all of Thy tests.

So, I believe that I will not just feel happy

because I have what I ask for,

but because I'm always grateful for what You give.

And I also believe that I'm going to be rich,

not because of wealth.

But to be rich of Thy knowledge that will guide me

to the right path.

And I also still believe that I will succeed,

not only achieve my goals.

But because I managed to reach Thy Heaven.

How lucky I am,

always guided by You, my Lord.

How lucky I am,

always protected by You, my Lord.

How lucky I am,

always be in Thy way.

Twenty-one years have passed,

and now my time to fix

all of my sins.

I will always be grateful, be patient and

always with You throughout my life.

So I will get Thy grace and blessing,

and also Thy Heaven.

Amin Ya Rabb.
