Quotes about yusuf

I want a Car! Can't Walk! !

The horses of your
wishes,
gallop ruthlessly,
on infirmity
of my barren
hands.

Tando Yusuf

Slave Boy

They shaved his head
to clothe him in ugliness
out of jealousy and fear
of his beauty.

They erased the night
and left him in dawn.

Eccentric Dream

A day to dream
is a day of happiness.
But, no one expected
that day is the weirdest, hardest and unexplainable.
Things cannot flow as we wish.
What must be done?
Nobody knew the right answer.
Wind blowing smoothly in this beautiful night
This dream is what people hopes on.

My Singing Idol (Yusuf Islam)

He was a star
A rockstar
He was Cat Stevens
A famous popstar

Now he's a Muslim
Still a star
A star who brings shine to Islam
A muslim's hope

Still a singer
Music in his mind
Melody in his heart
Shine in his eyes

A Muslim singer
Yusuf Islam is the name
Has a Muslim family
And a happy life

The Mirror Never Lies

The mirror once told me that
My face was smooth and cute
My chin as bare as the Sahara

As the Sun counted our days
The moon counted our nights
And seasons exchanged fortunes
The mirror told me something new

All the smoothness is gone
As if it has been different ever since
My chin has turned into a bush
The mirror showed me a total stranger
This morning!

Doubtful

Early,
It is one,
Forbidden food in heaven.

Later,
Too many forbidden food,
In earth.

Now,
They are coming everywhere,
In every action of life,
With every mind that come as devil,
This is all devil foods.

I am afraid of eating the devil foods,
If I eat, I am not dying,
But I am going to hell

If I let they go,
They flies away with the angel wings

It's the people and the cause that matter and right now there's an important need, which is bridge-building. I wanted to support the cause of humanity, because that's what I always sang about. Music can be healing, and with my history and my knowledge of both sides of what looks like a gigantic divide in the world, I feel I can point a way forward to our common humanity again. It's a big step for me but it's a natural step. I don't feel at all irked by the responsibility — I feel inspired.

Forest of Wonders

In this forest of wonders
There is a girl walking alone
Walking straight with no direct destination
Questioning herself
Is there anyone out there
Is there anyone that would help her
She keeps on walking in this dark forest
There is no one
No one to call her back
No one want to remind her
No one would dare to speak with her
There, she keeps on walking
Wondering again
Is she alone
In this big forest
Is she alone
Finally she realize
There is no one
No one nearby to help her
No one dare to comfort her

Global Village

Global village

Though we are all human
we are made to be different
by forces beyond our clout

Yet they want remake us
in a new image of their choice
in a village too big to be safe

The world they now call
a single village in the globe
with a big brother to match

As long as we are second class
within that large village fashioned
we would be subjected to
someone’s standards
someone’s culture
someone’s technology

A Man From The Slum District

ı a m a man from a slum district
my pockets are empty and moneyı ess
in obligation
ı am a member of a fake syndicate
in the factory ı work as a laborer
ı f open my mouth
and talk against my bosses
ı will be booted and fired

ı am screaming all night in the streets
against alll these
with the night watches guarding me
ı am a man from a slum district
my badly cladding is also obligatory
in beyoglu
policemen strolling..watching and batoning me
