Orang Akan Ingat Pada Kita Bila Kita Dah Mati

Assalamualaikum!

Korang pernah dengar tak lagu If I Die Young by Perry Band? Aku sangat suka lagu tu sekarang. Dan yang lebih aku suka ialah lirik lagu tu. Meh aku copy paste lirik die..

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors
Oh, and life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even gray, but she buries her baby

The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time

And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never known the loving of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand

There's a boy here in town, says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time

So put on your best, boys, and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done

A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singing
Funny, when you're dead how people start listening

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time when you're really gonna need them, oh

The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time
So put on your best, boys
And I'll wear my pearls

Cuba korang tengok yang aku 'pink'-kan tu.. Korang tahu tak maksud dia? Sila translate sendiri yer.. hehe.. Tapi aku rasa memang betul lirik tu kata. Bila seseorang tu mati, barulah orang lain akan ingat dia. Ingat apa yang dia pesan, apa yang dia pernah buat segala apa la kan.

Cuba korang baca surat khabar. Mesti ada la yang macam "Arwah pernah kata ingin makan bla bla bla" kan??? Kenapa baru nak teringat? Kenapa time arwah masih hidup tak bawak je dia pergi makan? 

Hal ni pernah terjadi dekat sepupu aku. Time ayah dia meninggal, dia punya la nangis sambil cakap "Abah pernah pesan suruh Along selalu tolong mak. Along tak pernah ikut cakap abah." And I was like, "Tu lah, time ni la kau nak menyesal pon" hehe.. Jahat jugak aku kan?

Ni pun aku rasa betul jugak. Just see Our Beloved P.Ramlee. Hari tu aku ada la tengok dokumentasi tentang dia dekat channel History. Kisah dia sangat sedih. Pastu aku terfikir, kenapa time dia hidup orang selalu dengki pada dia. Tapi bila dia dah meninggal barulah nak iktirafkan?

Tu je yang aku nak cakapkan. Sorry lah kalau entry ni panjang. Cuma aku rasa lagu ni memang ada yang betulnya. Cuma yang "bury me in satin" tu je yang tak berapa nak betul sikit. Ye la, orang Islam kan dibungkus dengan kain kapan, bukan kain satin! hehehe..
