Lagu "My Mother" uléh Rasyid A. Bikha

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim,

Today i want to write in English..., there is no specific reason for me to do so, but i just feel like i want to.

My posting this time, would be about songs..., as a new mother, of course i like to sing to my little daughter..., And as we all know, little babies learn much from what they see and what they listen..., so i'm really choosy about the song that i sing to her...

I dont want my baby to listen to songs about romance, or songs with dirty words..., but i want her to listen to something useful..., something with education in the lyrics..., something about religion...,

Well..., usually Hubby and me only chanting dzikir "Laa ilaha ilallah" to her..., but here, i have a good song to sing to baby and also to us all..., to remain us to our mother...,

And for anybody who want to learn English and/or Achèhnese, they can always sing this song and study the lyric, because i have translated it into Achèhnese :)

Jazakumullah,

My Mother - Milôn
