♪ 青蛙交响曲 ♫

一只青蛙
深居渊塘
听闻邻塘三只霹雳蛙
受不起蚓饵
呱呱呱” ♫
搞挎自家塘
跃进敌塘
一生飨不尽

又闻南方池塘一只老青蛙
深谋多计
为了挣扎救生
斟酌过后
大声“呱呱呱”喊 ♫
要跃进敌塘
结果跃上枝头当凤凰
得意洋洋 。

深渊青蛙看着
羡慕不已
心想小池塘水已枯干了
犯不着,待在池塘里挨锇。

夏天到了,昆虫多
倒不如干脆跳出去
于是他大声 :“呱呱呱” 喊 ♫
我跳!” ♫
我跳!” ♫
哪知双腿一伸
才发觉给子根缠著了
跌回塘里
冬眠三年。

Happy Father's Day to all fathers

My daddy - http://www.playlist.com/searchbeta/tracks#Sheila%20Raye%20My%20daddy

Oh My Papa - http://www.playlist.com/searchbeta/tracks#oh%20my%20papa

To Daddy

Lonely is the night
In the unearthly hours of the night
When the air is cold
And there's no one to hold
Except my dad working without wage
Watching over the video footage
Hunching your shoulders over me
Gazing at me
Deleting, rewinding, or forwarding
Editing, perfecting
Until everything is all right
Then only you sleep tight.


When the earth sleeps
Often you are not asleep
Listening to me
Laughing with me
Until the task is done
When it is often dawn.

You sacrifice
Never asking for a price
From the party
From the rakyat
For your dream in Reformasi
For your dream in Democracy.

No one can replace you dad
My heart belongs to you dad
For creating me, Media Rakyat
The You Tube news of the Rakyat.

Happy Father's Day!

Media Rakyat.net

I created you, I named you

I fed you, I nurtured you.

It’s plain for all to see

you are produced by me

my flesh and blood

with salty sweat showering like flood.

You are my pride and Joy

You are my BOY!


Two years we have been together

we traverse the country together.

Up north to Permatang Pauh, Penanti, Bukit Selambau

or to Malacca, Machap down south.

Recording fiery, witty speeches throughout

Day in night out, year in year out.


By and by thousands watch you

for their daily news on You Tube.

You have hits after hits

leaving viewers in fits.

You feed the Rakyat, hungry for alternative views

that is not found on TV 3 news.

Sleepy nights editing, uploading were routine beat

the hard work and sacrifices were worth it.

Never did I dream

one day you would be snatched from me

whilst you were in my arms.

It hit me hard, it hit me numb.

No one told me

no one ever asked me.

It sucks, it hurts, it pains me thrice

to find fame comes with a price.

It’s easy to ride on your fame

Without lifting a finger and claim

you as their own

and hijack you to their new home.


Thinking of you, day and night

sleepless nights.

I can’t get over

raiders took you over.

They have no right

absolutely no moral right

to take over your name

instead of getting their own name.


You are still mine

though they try to cast doubt on people's mind

for they have created your double.

But the Rakyat know who’s the double

who is the real Media Rakyat.net

Only you my BOY, is the Original Media Rakyat.net

Dedicated to Chan Chee Kong

Producer of Media Rakyat.net

PERAK Vs PERAK

O pray tell us , the plotter of Perak
Why there are two Peraks ?
A Perak elected by the people

of the people for the people
Another Perak created by evil people
Seized by the powers that be

with force and usurped the assembly of Perak.

We are so confused
But not bemused
With two menteri besars

Two state assemblies
Two excos and two speakers.

We are just ordinary folks
We know nothing of the way of the crooks
We cast our votes
The results spoke of our votes

And thought it would go down in history books.

We woke up one day
And found to our dismay
Our beloved Silver State
Robbed by an overpowering bait

That stung everyone awake.


The leaping of three greedy frogs
Who ought to be flogged
For throwing a legitimately elected assembly out of town
For turning our peaceful lives upside down

And sending the country into the abyss of slumdog

We do not know which way to go
Which way to follow
With One White Perak

Or the other One Black Perak
For we are still in a Yellow State of limbo.

A Tale of 2 Boeys Vs 2 Boys

Once there were two Sue Boeys and two suede boys
The two suede boys wanted to make friends with the two Sue Boeys
But the two Sue Boeys didn't know the two suede boys
Never the twain shall they meet face to face
Not even in cyber space
If the two suede boys were to slander the two Sue Boeys
The two Sue Boeys will sue the two suede boys
It's best the two suede boys play safe with two toys.

1, 2, 3. Tangkap! Tangkap! Tangkap!


At the count of one, two, three,
Shouted the men in blue from the special tree
Tangkap! Tangkap! Tangkap!
You are under arrest and thrown into the lock-up.

It is wrong the men in uniform say
It is an offence the men in blue say
You have broken the law
For gathering outside the Perak State Assembly door
For eating and drinking
In a coffee shop talking
For answering back
For wearing black, or no black.

1, 2, 3. Tangkap! Tangkap! Tangkap!

It is an illegal assembly
For gathering in groups of more than five
For standing outside a station
For showing solidarity to the innocents inside the station
For trying to give legal aid to clients
Lawyers were themselves arrested and locked up with the clients.

1, 2, 3. Tangkap! Tangkap! Tangkap!

What is wrong?
To sing a happy birthday song?
To light a candle one day?
And wish someone happy birthday?
What crime have these people committed?
To be arrested and their freedom forfeited?

The answer my countrymen
Lies at the whims and fancies of the uniformed men
If you do not do as they say
If you do not obey what they say.

1, 2, 3. Tangkap! Tangkap! Tangkap!

Tangkap 1 Malaysia!
Tangkap 2 Peraks!
Tangkap 3 frogs!

Tree of Democracy

I am just an ordinary rain tree
Living a life of quiet obscurity
When one fine morning in May
I was suddenly jolted by people in black
loudly making their way
To gather under my shade
Passing minutes under my umbrella of leafy spread
In somber tones and with dignity
Befitting the sitting of the Perak state assembly.

Many came to gaze and wonder at me
A plaque was erected at my knees
With cameras flashing instant fame
I was proclaimed
The Tree of Democracy
Oh what ecstacy!

But none too soon
It hastened my doom
The plaque was broken up
My roots were dug up
Baring my old weathered sole
Piercing my heart and soul.

But the men in black attended to my injury
Auctioned off the shattered plaque for charity
Bemoaning the Death of Democracy
Under the wounded rain tree.

椅子

我只不过是一张椅子
主人州议长深谙司法
风度翩翩君子古马
相伴十月
平安无事

谁知
二月变天
三只黑蛙跳槽
把霹雳州搞得天翻地覆

我永远不会忘记
五月七日那天
那慌乱地场面历历在目

国阵联合法庭
阵营凌厉
野夺州议席
蛮霸占椅子

主人对我依依不舍
将我十指紧扣
钻鼻里硬硬把我从主人身边抢走
在一片混乱中
我与主人失散了
主人被恶霸强拖走
被软禁足足两个小时
而我却不知所踪
没人能找到我

ONE BLACK MALAYSIA 霹雳地天空

霹雳地天空

在那静静地黑夜里
看不到天上地星星
只见到霹雳的天空
一瞬间变得更黑暗


黑暗
吞噬了霹雳,
黑暗
吞噬了民主,
黑暗
吞噬了人民地声音,
黑暗
吞噬了人民地呼吸。


在那漫长地黑夜里
霹雳子民都等待着天明
等待……又……
等待……


用什么
来化解我们的怨恨 ?
唯有
还政于民 !
用什么
来平息我们的愤怒?
唯有
解散州议会 !
用什么来安撫我们沸腾地心?
唯有
从新选举!


在那幽幽的黑夜里
无论霹雳的天空多么地黑暗
黎明终究会到来


于是,
人民起来!
用双手,
劈开天空 !
终于见到蓝天 !


ONE BLACK MALAYSIA
BLACK
Is the colour of my motherland MALAYSIA!
BLACK
Is the colour of my beloved MALAYSIA!
BLACK
Is the colour of my choice of dress.
BLACK
Is the colour of protest.

BLACK
Is the people's fury and hate!
BLACK
Is the death of the Silver State !
BLACK
Is the blood that is bled from democracy!
BLACK
Is the colour of Malaysia's sky and sea!


So much for 1 MALAYSIA.
Fight against 1 BLACK MALAYSIA !
Push for Democracy FIRST!
Demand for Election NOW!

FÜR ELI 2

Welcome back!
Don't look back!
You have weathered the worst of the storm.
Stay strong.

You have nothing left to fear
From all that you once held dear.
Hold your head high.
Look ahead and keep your spirit high.

Reborn and arise from the ashes of the phoenix,
For your mission in life is not finished.
The political woods are dark and deep,
And you have many miles to go before you sleep.

You only pass through this world but once.
So any human rights that is in want,
Do it right, but not to score gains,
For you shall not pass through this way again.

'You Are Loved'

I Dreamed a Dream

I dreamed a dream in time gone bye
When Hope was high
And the Struggle worth living
I dreamed that
Hope would never die
I dreamed that the
Party would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
(of the FRU, water canons and arrests)
When dreams were made and used, and wasted
There were no ransom to be paid
(under ISA detention)
No song sung, no wine tasted
But the tigers came after March 08
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hopes apart
As they turn up your Dreams to shame
And still I dream the Party'll come to its senses
And we still fight our struggles together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather
I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seems
Now life has killed
The dream I dreamed
Adapted from 'Les Miserables'

FÜR ELI

FÜR ELI
DONT' GIVE UP!
YOU'RE LOVED.

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you are trudging seems all uphill,
You cried, and yet you have to put on a brave face,
When the blow comes from the one closest to you
and left mud on your face.

Take a break now.
And wait for the dust to settle down,
Rest,
But don't you give up your zest.

Life can be cruel with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns
Many turn about
When they might have won had they stuck it out

So stick to the fight when you are hardest hit,
It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit!
DONT' GIVE UP!
YOU'RE LOVED
