PANGLIMA HELANG



Tersebut al-kisah seorang panglima
 Masyur bukan kerana pencak
 Namun luhur budi dan akhlak

Panglima berguru tak pernah jemu
 Segala buah mahirlah sudah
 Tingkah berpencak pantang dipatah
Langkah diatur bagai berhujjah

Keris dihunus membelah daratan
Namun ke tanah kakinya terkapan
 Mula panglima menyimpan anganan
Ingin terbang mencapai awangan

 Setelah berakhir suatu pertapaan
Maka panglima mencapai kemahiran
Tengkolok dipakai segak
Bengkung dililit kemas
Keris dilayur dupa
Maka terbanglah panglima
Terbang ke angkasaraya

Kini panglima bersama helang
Di langit biru melayang-layang
Sayup-sayup dipandang
Terkadang hilang dilindung awan
Terkadang terang disuluh mentari

Terbang panglima terbang
Namun jangan lupa menoleh ke belakang
Ada citra harus kau kenang
Agar sayapmu tidak pincang

Terbang panglima terbang
Jangan sanpai gugur keris di pinggang
Kelak kau hanya seekor helang
Tiada senjata hendak dijulang

Terbang panglima terbang
Pastikan tengkolok dan bengkung selalu tersarung
Jangan terlalu diikut angin dan beliung
Kelak ditiup jati dirimu yang agung

Terbang panglima terbang
Namun ingat kau harus pulang
Pulang sebagai panglima terjulang
Bukan sekadar seekor helang

Transition

Sometimes I wonder if I would still blog after I go back for good since it always turns out that I don’t really blog whenever I return to Malaysia. I’m back in Melbourne again. Despite everything I said about this place. I'm always thankful that I’m studying here. 8 hours is long enough, can’t imagine going further. Let alone going back during a short winter break like I just did. Haha… However, regardless how good Melbourne is, coming back here is never easy. It is not the place, it’s the transition. Travelling is tiring. Yes, like yesterday, I had to take two flights, one from Penang to KL, then KL to Melb, it is a lot more tiring for someone like me who could barely sleep in a plane. That’s why I enjoy traveling during the day and taking a window seat. I enjoy day dreaming while staring at those fluffy white clouds. Haha.. Weather change changes everything. I had never went back during winter before. So that was my first time experiencing an abrupt change from a...

Willful Ignorance

I was too busy with architecture for the last few weeks.. . haven’t really got a chance to get my head around what’s going on in the world, especially back home in Malaysia. I felt detached from reality. I felt like I was living in ignorance. I felt guilty. Therefore, since I finished my final presentation yesterday (still got 2 submissions coming though)… Today, I decided to take a day off from architecture. I went out for a good lunch with a friend, had some retail therapy… and came back, get on the internet and try to update myself with some of the current issues. I read. I read. I read and I read. As a result. I feel sick. And I still feel guilty, way worse… I feel guilty and hopeless for knowing things I could never really do anything about. I know... I know...I know I’m a little behind. But I still need to put more efforts in understanding the following issues, I’m feeling lost and mentally constipated just by reading one or two news/articles/blogposts about them. 1. ...

Kerja Tak Siap Lagi!

I guess one of the real problem with Malaysian Architecture is it lacks of publication even on the internet. I have been browsing for Malaysian architecture these few days and surprisingly I found that there are many amazingly great projects back home. I stumbled upon many photos of interesting designs that I wish I could dig further for my assignment. But it is frustrating that how brief most of the information is. I also wonder if having a website is such a big deal (expensive, is it?) since not many firms have a website, let alone a good one. Some websites I have to say are not inviting at all. Many use dark/navy blue as the primary color, why is it? I don’t hate blue, but it’s not tasty at all as an architecture website… I also found some real good architects who keep blogs, but the problem with a blog is, it depends on the updates. Therefore, even if it is a current project (since some projects run for years), but if the post was 7 months ago, the blog seems abandoned. Besides, it...
