Are You Beautiful or Cantik?

hrough popular media, we can see a marked difference between the Asian perception and the Western perception of beauty.

Lets take a look from the eyes of men from both contexts.



Definisi Cantik Asian



Hey wanita

Gembira dapat berjumpa

Teringat kembali kali pertama kita bersua

Ingat bila kita bersepatu serupa

Tak lama dahulu jangan kata kau dah lupa



Kau bersama kawan-kawanmu dan yang nyata

Kau paling menyerlah di antara mereka

Rambut hitam warna cokelat anak mata

Membuat aku kurang fasih bila berkata



Apakata kita ambil sedikit masa

Untuk mengenali sesama kita dgn lanjutnya

Dan jika kau rasa apa yang ku rasa

Ayuh kita ke bab ke 2 dan seterusnya



Cantik

Dirimu buat ku tertarik

Menghilang segala prasangkadi jiwa

Oh cantik

Sungguh aku cinta kamu

Dia

Pandai menjaga hati ayah dan ibunya

Kelakuannya sama dengan orang tua ku juga



Dia

Bisa cipta yg gula dari yang cuka

Pandai menukar yg duka kepada suka



Dia

Bijak mengatur acara dan juga masa

Cekap memasak garam gula secukup rasa



Dia

Pandai menjaga harta dan juga duitnya

Tetap anggun tanpa mendedahkan kulitnya



Dia

Setia pada Yang Esa satu-satunya

Memenuhi tanggungjawab 5 waktunya



Dia

Punya tempat dalam rancangan yg ku rangka

Kita tak usah lengah

Ayuh kita berumah tangga



Cantik

Secantik suria menyinar

Seindah bunga yang di taman..mekar



Cantik

Dirimu buat ku tertarik

Menghilang segala prasangka di jiwa

Oh cantik

Sungguh aku cinta kamu



Aku

Melihat kita bersama di hari tua

Dia

Masih satu tiada empat tiga atau dua

Dan walaupun kau sudah kepudaran rupa

Kau tetap cantik padaku aku tak lupa



Kita bersama di anjung luangkan masa

Kewangan merdeka mampu bersara

Hasil usaha kita dari masa dahulu

Cukup untuk mengisi perut anak dan cucu

Hidup santai tak perlu terburu-buru

Punya masa kejar ibadah dan juga ilmu

Anak kita dan ayahnya semua sebulu



Aku bilang kau cantik

Dan mereka setuju
