Special Peom for Independence Father
On Borrowed Time
On borrower time, 22 years was all I had
To remember you by …
Your charming and jovial character …
Your warmth and love never be forgotten.
Many misunderstood you,
Though since in your dealings and simple in your approach,
You carried what you believed in a man who spoke in his mind,
A fighting spirit from beginning to the End,
Against all odds,
You and your fellow countrymen,
Got independence without a shed of blood.
The shouts of “Merdeka ! Merdeka ! Merdeka !”,
31st August 1957, a day full of satisfactin, fulfillment,
With so much of energy …
the echoes … waves of sound of the Merdeka Stadium,
hurry ! My Father ... continue to read at the Museum
Sempena Menyambut Hari Kemerdekaan ke 55
