As salam,,,
Hi everyone!
Long time no update with my blog and it is because my bb a.k.a broadband has been stop due to i lost it last year. I don't know where i place it and i had been scolded by my brother and my father. Well, peoples do sometimes misplace something and forget it. Humans are no perfect and that why pencils have erasers! Talking about perfection, I have this one song that I like and would like to show u. I find it beautiful because the words are meaningful. Plus, the rhythm is nice. It is a song by Lee Hi, and the title is Rose. I post the English lyric down below.
My love is like a red rose
It may be beautiful now
But my sharp thorns will hurt you
My love is like a red rose
Yes, I may be fragrant
But the closer you get, the more I’ll hurt you
Don’t look at me with that light glance
Don’t speak of love easily
If you want my heart, you need to take my pain too
Because you will be pricked by my thorns someday
Don’t trust me too much
You don’t know me that well yetSo just run away run awayI said ooh ooh oohDon’t love meYou don’t know me that well yetI said run away just run awayDon’t come to me
My love is like a red rose
It may be beautiful now
But my sharp thorns will hurt you
My love is like a red rose
Yes, I may be fragrant
But the closer you get, the more I’ll hurt you
Seeing your confidence makes me feel so bad for you
Your confident footsteps toward me looks so pitiful today
Emotions? That’s an extravagance to me
Love? That’s Obsession’s best friend
So run away just run away
Cuz you and I must come to an end
Every rose has its thorn
Every rose has its thorn
Every rose has its thorn
Don’t trust me too much
You don’t know me that well yet
So just run away run away
I said ooh ooh ooh
Don’t love me
You don’t know me that well yet
I said run away just run away
Don’t come to me
My love is like a red rose
It may be beautiful now
But my sharp thorns will hurt you
My love is like a red rose
Yes, I may be fragrant
But the closer you get, the more I’ll hurt you.
The large font is the part where I would like to highlight. Basically, it is about when you find someone that you like and yes, you fall-in-like with the person. At first, you may see that person perfect, beautiful, handsome, and yeah, everything excellent. But, not until one day, when you know the truth about that person. You started to feel uneasy and disbelieve. Perhaps. It is normal. I think this is the line that separate the difference between love and like. When you like, it is because of something that person may have and make you entertained and happy when you see it. Only the good part of that person that you like but not as a whole. Love is when you love that person because of who he or she is. You unlikely to disappoint when he or she makes mistakes. Less of high expectations. It may not an ideal person that you dream of but, you just seems to be perfect together. Apa orang kate, saling melengkapi, haa mcm tu la. Bila ada yg kurang, yg lagi sorang akan tlg cover dan sebaliknya. Menerima dengan seadanya. Acece~ =P
This song remind a guy or girl about imperfection. Before you fall in love to someone, you have to realized something important. Let us put in this way, I think it will be easy to understand. Btw, this is just a story^^
There is a girl name Wafa, and she fall in love with this boy name, %^&8!. And that boy seems like her too. She wanted to tell the boy about how she feels. So she wrote a letter.
Dear %#$&!,
I do like you and you're soo nice. But before we going to any further relationship, I would like to tell you something. You may see i smiles all the times, laughing, and happy-go-lucky. But, there was a time when i feel down and i rarely show it to others. I do have flaws that only my family knew and few of my friends. I cry because i knew i was abnormal. You may feel weird of what i'm talking about. My smiles doesn't show who am I. Because of the flaws, i will hurt you. Because of the flaws, you may feel uncomfortable. Honestly speaking, if you want to go away from me or make less contact to me, please do so. I don't want to hurt you in future. I don't want you to regret later. You don't know me well yet and because of that, you might think I am perfect for you. You may say nice words to me, beautiful words. Don't be confident. Peoples do changes. You may like me at first but later who knows, you don't anymore. Maybe because at that time you already knew my flaws, and you run away from me. So, I give you a chance to do so. But if you think you're confident enough that you can confront me, and accept me as the way i am regardless of my flaws or any imperfections of mine, i am happy to know you too.
Your sincerely,
Wafa
I am sorry if the letter i wrote dalam cerita ni tak ikut format ke hape ke, well this is not EPP btw. heheXD~
When I read back, I think, agak strong ayat nya. Yeahh. This is honest. Berkata lah benar walaupun pahit pada hakikatnya. Mesti bapak terkejut that guy bila dia baca. Muehehehe~ apekah? kenapakah? mengapakah? Girls memang complicated. Sorry to say lah kan. But guys out there, you have to understand. I think I found out about guy that they don't like ayat putar belit. Perempuan bila dia nak bercerita, they will berkias sampai lah penamatnya. Punya lah berkias dia tu sampai guys penat nak berfikir. Apakah yang cuba nak disampaikan oleh perempuan tu?. HahaXD Sebab tu lelaki tak suka berkias bagai ni, for them is the best to just tell the truth. Just honest with them. Baru mereka boleh digest apekah? mengapakah? kenapakah? I hope this letter tak kuat sgtlah kan berkiasnya. =P
Anyway, the favorite sentence of mine in this song is "every rose has its thorn". That the main point. Some of us may interpret differently of the sentence meaning and I think it depends on a person's observation or experiences. I had do the Yahoo-ing and I find this one perfect meaning.
"...Even the rose, beautiful and enticing, is not without its flaws; the prickly thorns of the rose can poke and pierce the flesh. In fact, there is a type of plant in the Rose family, Hawthorn, whose thorns are toxic to the eye, and scratching of the cornea with it often leads to loss of vision. Even something as beautiful as a rose has its flaws..."
There are multiples adages about rose and all of them have a very nice meaning such as "He who want a rose must respect the thorn" and "From a thorn comes a rose, and from a rose comes a thorn".
"..."He who wants a rose must respect the thorn". Here too the idea of imperfection is expressed, teaching that one can only have a loving relationship with another after respecting that individual's differences and flaws..."
"..."From a thorn comes a rose, and from a rose comes a thorn" teaches that something that begins as an imperfection or flaw can grow to be as beautiful as a rose. So too something as stunning as a rose is also not perfect, for within, there are also flaws..."
I just merely copy and paste from this website of all the meaning because I think this is the best explanation.
p/s : I love this one quote from Kak Fatima Syarha,,,“Cinta boleh lenyap bersama lenyapnya sebab. Kuingin mencintainya kerana Allah. Lantaran aku yakin, hanya Allah tidak akan lenyap.”
Btw, Ramadhan is on the way! =)
