Yasmin -The Ledgendary Story Teller.Al-Fatiha

It was Nov.2005 when I first starts blogging,after been persuaded by my mate Boe,he was blogging under Ricky's Cafe then.
It was the early blogging era,much to my amusement,the stories written in the blog then,were innocent.
I am not a sopo fan thus,my visit to those sopores are limited.
I dont discuss or rather stayed away from those 'me know all the problems in Malaysia blog' nothing amazed me with what was written on the wall.


It is a fact yasminthestoryteller.blogspot.com was my first blog I followed with Boe's persuasion.
Her words were simple.
A very knowledgeable and a profound blog.
It discuss mainly on her work on films and adverts in progress.
She's jotted down to a precise detail,ample enough for a person like me with no knowledge of the film industry to understood its content.

Her blog was a one-stop-centre between her-fans and her co-worker,corresponding via the comment box.
The respond was fast.No twitters what so ever then,but her assistant were there in split second waiting for instruction on the on going projects or witting teaching her films student about the finer points in film making via internetting.

Amazing women,making use the 'know how' technology rather that 'know who',in making quality pictures.
I followed her blog long enough till I managed to get 5 entrance passes on her very first premier and much controversial film'SEPET'.
Ted,one of her pupils managed to pull me through.I pass on the ticket as a marriage present to my nephew Ariff,Lin and both my girls Nana and Aliah.It was before Adam was born.

I was active and a regular to her blog.
You would notice some of my early writing was a reflection of her blog.
Comments made by some, sometime were off the line and sensitive.
Come from a multi ethnic society,the religion issues were at stake but she played her critics down well.
Her films leads to much controversial in a conservertive society of ours,
but I must say ,she's a class of her own.Her message clearly understood.

A pace setter,an inspirational for the new breeds,a phlithropist and a trend setter on her own right.
She's take criticism in strike and able to defence her work inteligently and diligently.There was once I propose to her,

'....mum,you should be a Senator by now,incharge of our Culture and Art Ministry.Your place is at Dewan Negara...'in one of the comment box.
nahhh...she's not instrested.

She was much into her work with passion and articulation.
Be it the PETRONAS Raya's,CNY or Depavali or X'mas advert,she delivered it with perfection and in harmony refelecting the multi ethnic preception of
'what Malaysia is' instead of 'Malaysia where?? !!!!

They didn't teach that in any Malay film production do they?
Love and devotion for Film making - As she once said in her blog in 2006

'we don't need "ART" for a few.
we don't need "Education" for a few.
and we don't need "Freedom" for a few.

True to her words,Art is an Education,art shapes a person inner feeling and art is a social tool to instill love for human mankind as was projected through her work, translating human desire to Love,Peace and Tranquality.

Her messeage was simple ie. ...........BE GOOD HUMAN !!

Moga Allah memberkati usaha mu Yasmin !!.Amin

7 das tembakan ke udara. !!!!!!!!!!!

hormat Panglima.........hormat.

Al.Fatiha.


**************

Suara mu merdu,
Creativitas mu anugerah.
Insipirasi segala anak Malaysia.
Kepatriotikkan dan semangat mu yang gitu tak pernah disangkal.
Ilmu mu mendalam.
Fikiran mu terang.
Minda mu cergas
Kebolehan mu tanpa batas.

Kami sedu
Kami kenal siapa kamu
Mata mu sentiasa menunduk tanda merendah
Ayat-ayat cinta mu
tanpa mengira warna,semua hanya hamba allah jua
Kami setia
Kami bangga
Kami meratap kesepian
kami hormat pengorbanan
Kami tatap bingkisan
Pulang mu menemuai Ya-Hakim,
pulang lah dengan aman
moga perjalanan akhir mu disinari zat Ya Haq.
moga 'Loh Mahfus' penyeri pengabadian.

Ya Haq Ya Qayull Qayum- Hasbin Nal Allah Ya Nikmah Wa'Akil

Terasa Sejuk dijiwa ini
bila mendengar takbir mu
lalu aku sahut dalam senyum sinis..
kau yang haq
menggigil aku mencari pengertian mu
merantau kami untuk mengenal mu
berlapar kami diajar oleh mu
terdengkur kami mengenang mu
bersyhadu kami teringat kalam mu
tersungkur kami mengenang dosa terdahulu
bertabur kami memberi kerana mu

Tanpa kau aku ....mati
Tanpa aku pasti sangsi

Aku lari.. mencari
aku nari.. menyerah diri
aku tantang penoh kemanjaan
aku lindungi saban semalaman
supaya mengenal hanya yang hakiki
supaya tubuh mu ini akur
dan tidak pernah dengkur dalam dengungan

Count Down to Al Qadri

Count Down to Laitul Qadar...Yallah ya.yaakhir

Grap it and do Hit and Run.Home Run they call it!!!!!!!!!!!

Setahun lagi Ia menjelma.........

To all fellows humans where ever you are,
If any one could translate it please do....thank you,

tiada indah secantik indah
indah lagi malam purnama
tiada sudah penyeri penyudah
penyudah penyeri rahmat al'Qadri

bukan usul sebarang usul
usul istihad berfatwa pujangga
bukan renong sebarang renong ,
renongi diri kenal marifat

pakaian disalut kulit bibiri
buatannya kasar penutup aurat
buatlah diri ini hamba sejati
mengenal kalam alhaq sepakat

Buatlah diri hamba sejati
mengenal kalam alhaq sepakat
kita tersenyum serta bertaubat
mendengar dan itikaf mendapat berkat.

Wassalam.

Selamat Mengerjakan Ibadah DiBulan Ramadan alMubarak

'sang bulan menghinggap di jendela mu tapi malam,

Alhamdullilah Papa 47 Today Boys but.....

a bit nostalgic after reading a blog by our Tok A Kadir Jasin

Dari Generasi Ku Buat Generasi Mu.........

Tahnniah Kepada semua yang terpilih keIPTA.
The Struggle has just begins
Its a 'Long Walk To Freedom'

Buat semua, hayati Sajak ini.


Dek,
Kami dilahirkan didalam fitrah
anugerah maha azali
Kami serba kekurangan tanpa bantuan kecanggihan,
Tanpa 'online' untuk menambahkan pengetahuan am.

Dek,
Kami dilahirkan tanpa ucapan singkatan abdja membolehkan
semua tawa riang
duka ditagih
simpati diraih
hanya untuk pasarana manja

Kami hanya diam
memperbetulkan permainan pistol-pistolan kayu kami yang usang
pelepah-pelepah nipah menjadi sorotan
roda-roda rim berputaran
Kami terhibur
Kami menhibur Kami bertempur
Kami akur pada waktu-waktu pilihan

Dek,
Berita kami terima hanya dari sumber yang satu
Lagu didendeng dari corong-corong mono usang
Teriakan azan hanya dari rumah-rumah azali usang
tanpa ulaman-ulaman keserian
tanpa sejadah tebal hingga menenggelamkan kaki-kaki hitam
tapi kami masih menyerah dalam redza

Dek,
Mimpi yang dikejar diselit oleh kata-kata fatwa dari hati yang pasrah
keakrapan kawan bukan diselitkan dengan piti jutaan
kekaguman jati diri sesama insan,kami pelajari sesama sendiri,
supaya dapat memperbetulkan langkah-langkah kami yang sumbang
melalui indra kami yang serba sederhana.

Kami masih boleh mendabik dada mesti pun
kami letih....
kami perih....
kami tidak secanggih tapi terus menabur benih-benih putih
untuk kalian menikmati keindahan dengan nyaman tanpa gangguan
berserta ketulan-ketulan rebutan
supaya kalian dibekalkan tanpa bebanan.

Dek,
Jangan kau leka
hanya alpa dengan Iswara
Jangan kau tawa kecacatan kami yang ada,
semasa kami cuba sedaya
semasa menyediakan pasarana yang ada
....nah Menara Angkasa
....nah Putrajaya
....nah Cyberjaya
....nah Mercu Tanda
....nah Kahzanah Bangsa atas nama yang terukir.

Eeeeiiii.....yaaaa,
keringat kami cuma setitis
tapi masih ada peninggalan kami untuk mu bukan?

Dek,
Teruruskah engkau?
Menguruskah engkau?
Terbagikah engkau?
Membagikah engkau?
segala-galanya?

Usah dicari erti negeri
sekiranya hati kau masih sangsi
Sekiranya mata kau belum suci
Hanya Maha Azali
pembuka diri melalui pintu-pintunya yang suci.
