Written originally by Jennifer Soh Li Wen based on a translation from "Pernah Dilamun Cinta", 12th May 2013, Sunday, 5:58 p.m.- 9:22 p.m. (Including editing time), In the hall room at home, Specially dedicated to my lovely friend, Cheng Cheng and her husband for their matrimony <3
Once I heard people say,
"You ought to know to love";
It's true in every way,
Memories as pure as dove.
This story is like a blossom flower,
Two people met and got together;
Although nothing is perfection,
God already has the solution.
No matter how far their distance is,
That could bring sadness and bliss;
They're still on the same land,
Miss Eve his only girlfriend.
Her husband is from Sarawak,
His wife is from Sabah;
Both met at random,
In Shah Alam kingdom.
Mr. Adam fell for her since 1st Sem.,
When she was with her boyfriend;
He waited for her for a year long,
She realized he's not Mr. Wrong.
They were University students,
Same but different courses;
He gazed at her from afar,
She was never alarmed.
And so they were block partners,
But not as close as block mates;
A friendship they can relate,
Her classmate his housemate.
17th January 2009,
They went out as friends;
Just drinks and said hi,
Knowing backgrounds and plans.
Miss Eve told me about him,
My role in story writing;
Mr. Adam is very humble,
A nice guy plus adorable.
1st February 2009,
It was a movie for the first time;
"Sifu dan Tonga" watched,
She was distracted by her heart.
14th February 2009,
Who didn't know it was a Valentine?
A day to appreciate couples,
The day he showed his muscles.
Mr. Adam has never been in love,
However, when watching the film;
Miss Eve felt the nerve,
"He's my man," she murmured.
On that Valentine's Day,
Mr. Adam made her day;
Sent a song "Mungkinkah Terjadi",
By Tam Spider and she knew he wasn't kidding.
In any kind of relationship,
It's best to let time perceive;
God is Almighty toward us,
Do you see a river rushes?
1st March 2009,
They became more than friends;
They went out according to plans,
The technology era not left behind.
A movie, Go-Card, and KFC,
At the Extreme Park, Shah Alam;
A shy guy this Mr. Adam,
A song to express love in February.
This world is actually fair,
Miss Eve loosen her hair;
She messaged him a questionnaire,
Even though they were at each other's rear.
She typed,
I find it right;
"Do you love me?
If yes, please say the 3 words."
Mr. Adam definitely read it,
I understand this feeling;
How deep is the meaning;
Shah Alam, they were in.
Finally he answered,
Via voice and texted;
"I love you," said he,
A couple officially.
Time flies as years passed by,
Mr. Adam isn't going to lie;
The gap suffocates him,
He has chosen to marry.
Both sides of families,
Are equally supportive;
A traditional engagement,
On 3rd June 2012 a commitment.
If you love a person,
Looks isn't a reason;
Accepting the difference,
Encourage and giving chances.
These two characters,
Keep calling and texting one another;
Countless times,
Just to feel close at hearts.
Life isn't a bed of roses,
Teacher Adam taught Miss Eve;
On family and life circumstances,
He mentioned that family is priority.
Same age and months apart,
It wasn't easy living apart;
It was exhausting and tiring,
Thankful their hearts keep on inspiring.
As how Miss Eve shared with me,
As how I gathered by listening;
Mr. Adam is really a gentleman,
He respects human to human.
Similar hobbies are vital,
In order to create laughter;
Sports are their favorites,
They also enjoy flavors.
Miss Eve and Mr. Adam,
Both aren't my creations;
They're God's miracles,
United under the shade of love.
From calling names to sayang,
From near to miles apart;
From the way I see you two,
From what I hear happiness I knew.
The time will surely come,
For you to adorn the bridal;
Congratulations a word of mouth,
Your household now blooming a petal.
Care not for what others utter,
It's how you feel for each other;
I hope for your loyalty forever,
In love by a touch of heaven sweeter.
Dear all young adults out there,
Marriage will eventually arrive;
Take heart and believe in love,
But remember to dream and be good.
Life's only once,
Live no regrets;
Take time to learn yourself,
Your love is just standing next.
We only can plan,
The Great God decides;
Listen as your heart speaks,
At that moment you've been in love.
Be honest with your feelings,
Don't have to think twice;
For wedding a mutual agreement,
Let's celebrate it together.
Final words from yours truly,
So sorry for not attending;
May you grow old happy,
One day you'll be Mommy and Daddy.
