the star


lights, camera, action.
the ringing tune that moves you.
the silent vibes your heart beats.
the graceful stance that dance you.

lights, camera, action.
the tone you'll get accustomed to.
the beautiful emotions concocted.
the eyes you so much mesmerized.

lights camera action.
the path I chose you taught me.
the flight that grows into me.
the run you kept me going.

lights, camera, action.
this salutation is for you.
this gratitude has your name.
this glorious win you deserve.

lights,camera,action.
you will be this first in mind.
you are who no one is better.
you are that special individual.

i call mentor.

rebung



Act I fajar


Aku bukanlah seniman, ataupun aku sang penghibur.
Aku hanyalah bawahan, yang banyak mimpinya terkubur.

Rantauan hidup membawaku ke sini,
dengan harapan menambah rezeki.
Tiada bagiku yang selalunya senangan,
tapi aku teruskan merempuh halangan.

Andaikata hidup ini satu lakonan, jiwaku ini kan ku pentaskan.

Sekiranya jalan ku terhenti, jauh sekali ia lah penghujung.
Takkan ku henti bermimpi, banyak lagi yang kan ku kunjung.
