Will there be total freedom?
When religion springs to life?
Words of ancient caught up in time
Changes must flow for a progressive nation
Though Allah/God words
Wrote it down thousands years ago
Yet why there are frictions still?
Amongst the people of the world
There are many roads to paradise
Open our eyes and see it through
The Lord knows how His children work
He scatters them so no traffic jam
On the journey one takes on the road
Only narrow minded people
Only theirs is the best amongst the lot
Teach them the meaning and the right approaches
Otherwise one can’t punish a student who fails
Because the teacher fails to teach properly
The recent Syariah High Court case in Penang
It isn’t a victory; it is the beginning of a change
The long road to seek the right to profess one’s religion
It is basically between God and the seeker of truth
In Indonesia one can’t find this narrow minded rule
The people there can change as they like it
Without raising a personal problem with the religious authority
Religion is a private promise between a believer and God
And it is up to the person to learn and practice it
Let the liberty flows
Even in religion one professes
Let there be no shackle to impede one’s journey
God/Allah doesn’t want it to happen
He waits for His children
Maybe with His big cane and carrot
Depending on what His children have done
While learning the ropes of good and bad
On Earth – the good and evil of one’s life
