"The song Malaikat Pelindungku performed by Arfa Marqia is very pleasant to listen to and inspiring. Therefore, I hope Arfa Marqia, who is still very young, can inspire the younger generation to achieve success, so that we can also enjoy it," said JK last month.

The song tells about a mother. "The meaning of a mother for Arfa is someone who is strong in facing her children. She is very patient, I am very grateful to have a mother like her. She is very kind and can teach me to be a good child," said Arfa.
