Tak Tercapai akal mu

Ellyana nyanyi lagu ini,, siapa penulis asal tentu faham maksud sebenar

Ku congak apa yang di depanku
Sebelum atur langkah
Ku tahu kan ke mana

Tak mudah aku kan diperdaya
Dengan pujuk dan rayu
Hasut ku ke duniamu

Sesungguhnya ku lebih dari yang kau tahu
Baik buruknya sesuatu
Selalu difikirkan dulu

Biar berdentum langit runtuh
Kan menghempap diriku
Tidak tergadai tatasusilaku
Yang menggambarkan siapa diriku

Biarlah bergoncang bumi di telapak kakiku ini
Namun takkan ku rubah pendirian
Yang membuat aku menjadi aku

Mungkin sukar untuk difahami
Kerna tak tercapai akalmu

Jangan ku kau sasarkan sebagai mangsa
Yang kau sangka mudah di rebah
Santunku bukannya ku lemah

Mudahnya merosakkan dari membina
Mencemarkan dari memulia
Tak menghirau dari mengendah

Sesungguhnya ku lebih dari yang kau tahu
Baik buruknya sesuatu
Selalu difikirkan dulu

Biar berdentum langit runtuh
Kan menghempap diriku
Tidak tergadai tatasusilaku
Yang menggambarkan siapa diriku

Biarlah bergoncang bumi di telapak kakiku ini
Namun takkan ku rubah pendirian
Yang membuat aku menjadi aku

Mungkin sukar untuk difahami
Kerna tak tercapai akalmu

Mungkin sukar untuk difahami
Kerana tak tercapai akalmu

Biar berdentum langit runtuh
Kan menghempap diriku
Tidak tergadai tatasusilaku
Yang menggambarkan siapa diriku

Biarlah bergoncang bumi di telapak kakiku ini
Namun takkan ku rubah pendirian
Yang membuat aku menjadi aku

Mungkin sukar untuk difahami
Kerna tak tercapai akalmu

Mungkin sukar untuk difahami
Kerana tak tercapai dek akalmu

new stuffs done yesterday

After a long lay off, I had a call, asking if I can make some things. Well here they are. Hope their clients like them too.

Galleon 9

Its just a codename but this is the second biggest I've made though its not my design originally. Of the 30 odd years in this field, as far as i can recall, I've only made less than 10 of this design. Its dimensions are, height approximately 30 inches tall, 6 inches wide and 24 inches long. I'm just guessing because I don't have one for me to measure now. : ) Notice the three masts, there's another even rarer galleon which is the Galleon 10, with 5 mast and even taller and longer. I made only two. One of which broke when I fell and landed on it. Took me a few years to gather the courage to make the 2nd one. :) Interested? Gimme a buzz, ring, whatever..

My Friend, Sham's work of art to wear.

What I think of local batik? Someone once asked me.
Hmm. That’s a tough one. I think there is still room for expansion. Diversify. Increase if you must. Say, in its production and promotion.

The problem with local batik is its way too expensive to get designer labels. The unique ones are always expensive. Wished I can wear batik everyday, in comfortable materials such as cotton. Ready to wear are not available easily. But if one wants batik that’s exactly the same as the next one on the shelf, then most probably that’s not batik but a clone version of batik, probably made in China.

I like the batik done by my good friend, Sham. He is innovative. He strays away from traditional form of producing batiks. I think it’s the background that makes his batik special. Love it.

I also like batik in one colour but with different shades and tones. If you have seen hills and mountains in the morning, you would know what I’m talking about. Like a Chinese painting. All the batik pics you see here are my friend's work. If anyone wants to custom make a batik baju kurung or any kind of batik, feel free to contact me for details. Thank you.
