Part 1 – The sad tribute

Fate,
As life will dictate
Sad,
Your work more to add
Cry,
Our tears will never dry
Mourn,
We will, as you journey on
Rest,
You have done your best
Stay,
Forever in Heaven’s bay

Part 2 – The tiger’s roar

Cry,
We shall, for your sacrifice
Ask,
Not why, but who will rise
Fight,
Never let justice out of sight
Roar,
Louder from shore to shore
Long,
Are the days ahead, but no, we won’t fail you, Tiger of Jelutong! – April 18, 2014.
