(dedicated to Maria Sudibyo)
look tenderly at
innocence smile
of a baby
look closely at
purest smile
of a mother
look lively at
tough smile
of a father
look nicely at
sweet smile
of a lover
but is it easy
to cherish your day
with that smile?
but is it important
to refresh your life
with that smile?
but is it enough
to uplift your energy
with that smile?
but is it useful
to strengthen your love
with that smile?
smile to your enemy
suddenly you will be amazed
because it become your friend
smile to your opponent
quickly you will be charmed
because it become your fellow
smile to your nightmare
tomorrow you will be dazzled
because it become your lullaby
smile to your destiny
soon you will be enchanted
because it become your lucky day
smile is a great gift
which God give to us
to beautify our short existence
smile is a precious gift
which God give to us
to decorate our simple mind
smile is an essential gift
which God give to us
to light our lovely memory
smile is a valuable gift
which God give to us
to life our beloved feeling
(inspired by Camille Saint-Saëns’ Havanaise)
