Maher Zain

Satu lagi hiburan nasheed yang menghiburkan dari Maher Zain. One of my favourite song is Awaken. here the lyrics,

We were given so many prizes

We changed the desert into oasis
We built buildings of different lengths and sizes
And we felt so very satisfied

We bought and bought
We couldn't stop buying
We gave charity to the poor 'cause
We couldn't stand their crying
We thought we paid our dues

But in fact
To ourselves we're just lying
Oh...I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place
I'm walking with my head lowered from my race
Yes it's easy to blame everything on the west

When in fact all focus should be on ourselves
We were told what to buy and we'd bought
We went to London, Paris and Costa Del Sol
We made show we were seen in the most exlusive shops

Yes we felt so very satisfied
We felt our money gave us infinite power
We forgot to teach our children about history and honor
We didn't have any time to lose
When we were.. (were)

So busy feeling so satisfied
I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place
I'm walking with my head lowered from my race
Yes it's easy to blame everything on the west
When in fact all focus should be on ourselves

We became the visuals without a soul
despite the heat
Our homes felt so empty and cold

To fill the emptiness
We bought and bought
Maybe all the fancy cars
And bling will make us feel satisfied

My dear brother and sister
It's time to change inside
Open your eyes
Don't throw away what's right aside
Before the day comes
When there's nowhere to run and hide
Now ask yourself 'cause Allah's watching you

Is He satisfied?
Is Allah satisfied?
Is Allah satisfied?
Is Allah satisfied?

Oh..I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place
I'm walking with my head lowered from my race
Yes it's easy to blame everything on the west
When in fact all focus should be on ourselves

Kenapa Melayu kerja Gomen?

Di masa sekarang kalau survey, aku rasa ramai orang nak kerja gomen. Gaji makin bagus, cuti 2 hari hujung minggu, hal ehwal perubatan terjaga, overtime pon boleh buat, dan bagi sesetengah professional (Doktor/ Engineer/ Arkitek/ Lecturer/ akauntan) mungkin ada kelonggaran untuk kerja Consultancy luar ataupun di pinjamkan kepada mana-mana badan berkanun/GLC. Naik pangkat pon mungkin lebih senang bagi generasi professional yang baru (kurang 10tahun berkhidmat) sebab banyak kekosongan jawatan kanan dan ramai jugak professional tua yang berhenti dari kerja gomen. Ini aku cakap pasal professional, bukannya yang kerja bawahan. Kalau kerja bawahan pulak, memang kerja gomen lagi terjamin masa depan bagi yang tidak bercita-cita tinggi. Nak minta loan bank pon, sekarang ni guna payslip gomen lagi laku. Hell, aku rasa bukan saja Melayu, bukan Melayu pon minat kerja gomen. Cuma apsal tak ramai bukan Melayu dalam gomen mungkin kerana beberapa perkara, antaranya policy pengambilan kakitangan, ata...
