Revelation
by Hendro Darsono
From a distance
I vaguely hear
The sound of Quran recitation
Word by word
Verse by verse
So beautiful
So melodious
It makes my soul peaceful
It makes my mind clear
It makes my spirit flame up
The eternal truth is radiated from Your revelation
To shine in the darkness
To guide Your creatures
To eliminate hypocrisy
To destroy despotism
