The Best Mother

Kasih ibu kepada beta

tak terhingga sepanjang masa

Hanya memberi tak harap kembali 

Bagai sang surya menyinari dunia

Tiba-tiba teringat dengan lagu yang kami nyanyikan di bangku sekolah sederhana kami. Waktu itu aku masih kelas 1 SD dan begitu suka menyanyi. Ini lagu sederhana yang sudah di luar kepala sejak masih kecil. Tapi terharu sekali jika mengingat kami belajar menyanyikan lagu ini. 

Dalam perjalanan dari Gunungkidul hari ini, aku mendengar satu lagu yang terdengar familiar dari pemancar radio. Lagu ini jaman-jaman aku SMP lagi seneng-senengnya belajar bahasa asing. Tiba-tiba terharu juga mendengar lagu ini. Sepertinya momen yang tepat dengan mother's day yang biasa diperingati di akhir pekan kedua (pertengahan) Mei.

You taught me everything 

And everything you've given me 

I always keep it inside 

You're the driving force in my life, yeah
There isn't anything
Or anyone that I can be
And it just wouldn't feel right
If I didn't have you by my side
You were there for me to love and care for me
When skies were gray
Whenever I was down
You were always there to comfort me
And no one else can be what you have been to me
You will always be
you always will be the girl
In my life for all times
Mama, mama you know I love you
Oh you know I love you
Mama, mama you're the queen of my heart
Your love is like
Tears from the stars
Mama, I just want you to know
Lovin' you is like food to my soul
Yes it is, yes it is, oh
yes it is,
yes it is, yes it is, oh
You're always down for me
Have always been around for me even when I was bad
You showed me right from my wrong
Yes you did
And you took up for me
When everyone was downin' me
You always did understand
You gave me strength to go on
There was so many times
Looking back when I was so afraid
And then you'd come to me
And say to me I could face anything

Mum I'am all grown up now
its a brand new day
I'd like to put a smile on your face everyday

To every mother all over the world, you know you are the best mother!

Ya Rabb, ampunilah aku dan ibu bapakku, dan sayangilah keduanya sebagaimana mereka telah menyayangiku. Aamiin.
