Di jalan cinta para pejuang, biarkan cinta berhenti di titik

Di jalan cinta para pejuang, biarkan cinta berhenti di titik ketaatan.. Meloncati rasa suka dan tidak suka.. Melampaui batas cinta dan benci.. Karena hikmah sejati tak selalu terungkap di awal pagi..

Tapi yakinlah, di jalan cinta para pejuang, Alloh lebih tahu tentang kita..
