AKU IBAN SIN KAMU (YOU AND I)
Sh. Aliazer Sh. Abdurajim
In Aku iban sin kamu hambuuk da
Lilay ha kabuhi' ta in Kabasaran niya,
Timaud in dagbus haka lahil ta
Tibuuk ha kabatinan in katunggal ta
You and I, we are one
In this lifetime, His Purity explained
Faces multiplied when we existed
Whole in abstract form is our Oneness
Tubig, lupah, hangin, kayu, piyagmisla'
Siyampurna' sin Daakan, malaingkan KITA
Mataud in Nahapung lumilay kaniya
Sabunnal Tarika Sin Rasulullah in Kunsi' Niya..
Water, Earth, Wind, Fire homogenized
Purified by His Command, yet it is Us
In dissecting Him, befuddled were so many
Truly The Messenger's Path is His Sole Key
IN AKU iban Sin KAMU tantu Muwi' da
Pakaina tagnah hiyulaan ta,
Maghaman-haman ayaw di ha dunya
Bat kita dih mabuta ha adlaw gana-gana..
AS I, and so, DO YOU will surely Return
To that initial moments where we have lived
in this World procrastinate you must not
So on the Latter Day, we won't be blinded...
(Translated into English by Warina Sushil A. Jukuy)
