The Heritages

Father and Son
Ronan Keating and Yusuf Islam
(formerly known as Cat Stevens)

Father
It's not time to make a change,
Just relax, take it easy.
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to know.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.

I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy,
To be calm when you've found something going on.
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything you've got.
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.

Son
How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again.
It's always been the same, same old story.
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen.
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.

Father
It's not time to make a change,
Just sit down, take it slowly.
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to go through.
Find a girl, settle down,
if you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.
(Son-- Away Away Away, I know I have to
Make this decision alone - no)

Son
All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside,
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it.
If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them They know not me.
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.
(Father-- Stay Stay Stay, Why must you go and
make this decision alone?)

Just (another) try to remind

Bissmillah hirrohman nirohim........

Banyak hal yang harus ku selesaikan hari ini.
Banyak hal yang harus ku kerjakan esok hari.
Waktu terasa sangat cepat belakangan ini.
Waktu terasa sempit, rumit, menghimpit .

Tapi ada satu hal yang dapat membuat ku tetap dapat bertahan.
Ada satu hal yang dapat membuat ku tetap mampu memikul seluruh beban dan tanggung jawab ini.
Satu hal itu adalah berandai-andai mati.

Andai aku mati esok hari, aku tidak harus memikirkan semua tanggung jawab ini lagi.
Andai aku mati malam nanti, aku tidak harus memikirkan semua beban ini lagi.
Dan andai aku mati satu jam lagi aku tidak harus memikirkan semua hal ini lagi.

Tetapi ada satu hal, satu tanggung jawab, satu beban yang muncul dari balik tumpukan berbagai masalah dan tanggung jawab tadi yang mulai hancur dan memudar.
Sebuah tanggung jawab yang amat besar dan sering tersamarkan.
Sebuah hal yang amat dekat tetapi sering tak terlihat.
Sebuah beban yang melekat tetapi sering tidak dirasakan.
Sebuah beban tanggung jawab ku terhadap Sang Pencipta tentang apa yang sudah ku lakukan di masa hidup tadi.
