You should all know by now that Sami's penned a poem for Pak Lah and his bride to be. Rather cute, if this was the 1990s and the internet didn't exist.

From This Day Forward
Author Unknown
From this day forward,
You shall not walk alone.
My heart will be your shelter,
And my arms will be your home
Blessing For A Marriage
by James Dillet Freeman
May your marriage bring you all the exquisite excitements a marriage should
bring, and may life grant you also patience, tolerance, and understanding
May you always need one another - not so much to fill your emptiness as to
help you to know your fullness. A mountain needs a valley to be complete; the
valley does not make the mountain less, but more; and the valley is more a
valley because it has a mountain towering over it. So let it be with
you and

Combined, shaken and stirred, we have
Sami's poem:From this day forward
Who says only school children plagiarise?
You shall not walk alone.
Her heart will be your shelter,
And her arms will be your home.
A mountain needs a valley to be complete;
the valley does not make
the mountain less, but more;
and the valley is more a valley because
it has a mountain towering over it

If he did it himself, many many different things might have been brought up. He played it...safe.
