Juadah Mereka

Juadah Mereka

Ramadhan ini
apa juadah mereka agaknya?
Tangis matakah? Atau kecur air liur
yang mereka telan?
Tika sahur dan berbuka.

Ramadhan ini
apa ibadat mereka agaknya?
Derma wang? Atau tangis di kala sujud terakhir
yang mereka istiqamahkan?
Tika selebihnya tidak menghiraukan
ketar kesepian yang mereka rasai.

Ramadhan ini
apa isi kocek mereka agaknya?
Kocokan syiling? Atau kepuk kocek
yang menghampakan.
Tika selebihnya meluakkan isi dompetnya
yang terbonjol.

Ramadhan ini
tasik kepayahan mereka susuri.
rimba kesepian yang mereka redah.
kerna ada yang tak kena pada dirimu.

The Proto-Malays are believed to be seafarers knowledgeable in oceanography and possessing advanced fishing as well as basic agricultural skills. They moved around from island to island in great distances between New Zealand and Madagascar, and they served as navigation guides, crew and labour to Indian, Arab, Persian and Chinese traders for nearly 2000 years. Over the years, they settled at various places and adopted various cultures and religions as a result of acculturation and interracial and inter-tribal marriages with mos...
