Nia Na Sad Ang Wakwak
nia na sad ang wakwak
ang lanhan
molupad sa kangitngit
mokikik
bulagon ang lawas
ug kalag
ang ilong ug
ang sampot
nganong nagtan-aw
ka lang diha?
hala kikik na
hala lupad na
sayod ko
nga wakwak
ka sab nga dako
sugod na ta:
pagkaanindot ba
sa pagtakdol
sa bulan
pagkaanindot ba
sa hangin
diri sa taas
sa atop
pagkahumot
ba sa punoan
sa champaca

Gozler Ayni Sen
Kalp kuum at senden sorulur
Hala u gnlmn
Uma kon gzel kuum dem vurulur
Hala sevdan konusu dost meclisimin
Ya gel benim ol
Ya da git acn yaat
Szler hayli kmazlarda
Sz ver haydi sen
Dn birini grdm yolda

Bizler ayn kalmadk ki
Hayat deiirken
Ben birini sevdim ama
Gzler ayn sen
Sevmek bireyi sevmektir sen kadar
Ak bana yaln retmi kader

Ang tunay na lalaki (The Real Man) Stalks in the Streets of New York
Looking to harvest what makes him happy.
The AA meetings have thrown
him into iconoclastic jousts with Titans
and Gorgons with glowing snake eyes
and leather pants. This is life
without the Filipino bottle,
without the star fruit boogie,
without the "bomba" films. He wears black
Dr. Martens boots because slippers
would expose his "provinciano" feet
to the snow. He wants to ride
the back of a caribou and bolt
up Madison Avenue screaming
like Tandang Sora or shout
"hala-bira! hala-bira! hala-bira!"
like his Isneg cousins in Aklan.
"Ay, susmaryosep!" Such bad behavior
from the "true male" of Filipino
advertising. He looks at his reflection
on a book store window, notices
that his hair has grown shoulder-length
like Tonto in the Lone Ranger
he would watch on TV. He turns to the right,
his profile now looks like the young Bruce Lee
as Kato in the Green Hornet. Yes,
he realizes it will always be the face
of a supporting character. Rejected
from the Absolut Vodka magazine ads,
he decides to change his name
for an upcoming afternoon audition
for a Preparation H commercial - "Al Moranas",
American but with a Filipino flare.

Life Is a Game Where Life Only Wins
Life is a laughter but
no one can smile
Life is so hard that
makes us fragile
Life is a theater
of all deadly sins
Life is a game
where life only wins..
Life is happiness,
only fools say so
Life says “come dear”
just before saying GO
The moment we await death,
life starts laughing loud
We all seek sunlight
and life gives us cloud
Life makes us live it but
Never the way we wish
Life asks for that tear
What our eyes unleash
Life gives us blood to
Suck from us more
Life is a scary tale
It’s indeed a gore

I Cry For I Die Everyday
it’s not for a life do I hope,
I hope for each passing day
it’s not for a death that I cry
I cry for I die everyday
if childhood was myself in past
in past only alive I was
thus I cry today in immeasurable pain
for no more my childhood had last
if I was a student yesterday
today I have died once more
In tears, nothing could I say
As for me, closed was my classroom door
when world is my mother I thought
Happily I reshaped it at will
silently she sacrificed her slot
Now I cry as my world is nil
it’s not a same ego who I am
each day I walked another way
only name kept sounding the same
thus I cry for I change everyday
when fairy tales seemed real to me
Monsters I killed like a knight
when I grew up, the life I could see
I find myself losing every fight
it’s not in a life I have scope
I have scopes in each passing day
it’s not for a death that I cry
I cry for I die everyday

Duha Ka Maskara
Duha ang akong gipili
Nga maskara.
Puros puti.
Kaputli. Kahayag. Kagawasan
Alang nako. Gitagoan ko.
Nasayod ko kon kinsa ako.
Giganahan ka. Gihigugma mo
Ang gitagoan ko
Nga kangitngit.
Duha kita nga gamaskara.
Naghalok kita. Nagtandayay
Sa katre. Pipila na ba ka gabii?
Unsa pa bay kapuslanan
Nianang gitawag nila
Nga kamatuoran?
Nagmalipayon kita.
Dili na nato kinahanglan
Ang matuod.
Kadaghan na kana siya
Gipatay sa walay kukalooy.
Hala gaksa ko. Kanang hugot.

Vande Matharam
Not to thy knowledge of information cognizant
That credentialed people value intelligence
Not to thy nucleus of power-plant
Thy children rocket on par excellence
Not to thy progressing industries eminent
Concerned much to mint global wealthiness
Not to thy soulful populous effort
Endemically to eradicate illness
Not to thy efficacy of art, architect
Gleaming in society's ethnic fields
O' Mother India, our obeisance
But to thy valorous martyred quest
Thy sons fought for independence
That they manured a soil-fest
Themselves strewn blood-shed to fertilize
Their hopes sown to result
In reaping peace in abundance
A reformation of a fertile harvest
A progression essential in economic race
Vande Matharam! Vande Matharam!
Also to thy souls who deeply support
In times to save thy populace
Defending thy bravery on peril and threat
This day even in wars and clashes
With brimming cheers of grateful heart
Vande Matharam! Vande Matharam!

Si Papa Ug Ang Iyang Puting Kabayo
Usa ka adlaw niana
Misakay si papa sa iyang puting kabayo
Padulong siya sa baybayon
Aron sa sayo maligo
Walay kaon ang kabayo
Apan si papa walay puangod
Siging bunal sa kabayo
Siging syagit nga magpaspas
Ug dagan hala paspas pa gyod
Ug dagan kanang morag naglupad
Sa dihang naa na sila sa dagat
Gusto ko na untang sulsulan ang
Puting kabayo aron molangoy
Kini sa pikas nga isla aron
Dili na kani mabunalan
Sa akong walay puangod nga amahan
Apan wala akoy nahimo
Sa kaisog sa akong palibot
Usa ka adlaw niana
Miabot ang dautang balita
Adunay kunoy dako nga tawo
Gikilaw sa iyang kaugalingong kabayo

Ayaw Pod Ihungit Uy!
Ako lang putlan ang kamot
Aron di lang pud hungit kayo
Kana bang di ra pud klaro
Kanang medyo, sort of,
Mora’g si Mister Yoso.
Sama ini:
Gitulon sa kangingit
Ang kahayag. Smooth sa esophagus.
Gabii na, morag dako ug itom nga
Uwak. Milupad, miwarawara sa iyang
Mga pako. Gitukob ang adlaw.
Tan-awa ko, piyong kadyot
Kadyot lang, dugangi pa kadyot.
Ukba pod ang imong mata
Ayaw pagpamilok. Piloa ang imong
Dila. Paduladulaa sa imong tilaok.
Ayaw tunla. Ang imong dila
Kanang padulong sa imong
Gihandom sa kasingkasing
Ok ra ka?
Kagahi pa sa imong panumdoman
Katig-a ba sa cover design sa imong
Kasingkasing. Hard copy.
Matu’g ko sa katre ni
Procrustes. Na, hala, inata
Ang akong tiil. Biraha pagpugos
Kay mubo ra.
Ingon ana gyod kana si
Sisyphus. Snub kaayo, sige
Lang aswat ligid sa iyang bato.
Maghimo og dakong lingin
Walay katapusan walay sinugdanan.
Sus, buntag na man diay! Time na
para malibang. Makigsulti na pod ko
Sa akong tai. Di na ko patugatuga’g
Kaon og mais.

Til H. S. [Ind i den dunkle Skov i Tjørn og Krat]
Ind i den dunkle Skov i Tjørn og Krat
Jeg gaaer at søge Urten, som kan læge.
Ud i den dunkle Nat!
Mig vil det vederqvæge!
Jeg bærer selv en Vunde i mit Hjerte,
Min Tanke altid bøied sig mod den.
Nu føler jeg den ei! Det er din Smerte,
Som brænder der, min stakkels, unge Ven!
Vent paa min Atterkomst!
Jeg bringer Urten Dig, Din Lykkens Blomst.

Fra Vesterhavets Lande
Fra Vesterhavets Lande
Hen over dybe Vande
Du kom til Danmarks Strande,
Hvor Guld paa Marken groer;
Her Du i Bøgesalen
Tidt hørte Nattergalen
Og saae, ved Taget Svalen,
Symbol paa Troskab, boer.
Paa Svalens Ryg der sidder
Gud Amor, klædt som Ridder.
Forstaaer Du Fugleqvidder?
Jeg næstendeels det troer!
En Hilsen! Hvad? Og hvor?

Basnæs
Der staaer en nybygt Gaard af gammel Art
Med røde Taarne tæt ved Beltets Vande.
I kjære Minder lyser den saa klart
Og siger: „Her er godt ved Danmarks Strande".
Der blev jeg hjemme mangen Sommerdag
Og naar ved Juul de hvide Bier sværmed;
Der milde Øine, ærligt Hjertelag
Den hyggelige, kjære Arne skjærmed.
Og der — det veed jeg — ved dens Arnes Fyr
Med Hjertet hører man mit Eventyr.

Vande Mataram
India, my native-place, is a land of spirituality,
A symbol of great culture and civilization,
Where a host of people visit to quench their thirst of knowledge,
And to learn a lesson of love, truth, non-violence, peace and purity,
I’m proud of being an Indian, a child of Mother-India:
Who shelters all—friend or enemy, and,
Always a source of devotion and inspiration,
And I'm proud to be an Indian,
Now my heart and mind shout 'Vande Mataram'.

Venskabs-Pagten
Nu flyve vi bort fra den danske Strand,
Heelt ud om fremmede Lande,
Og saa er' vi nede i Grækenland
Ved de deilige kornblaae Vande.
Citrontræet staaer med sin guulgule Frugt,
Den tynger mod Jorden Grenen;
Der Tidslen groer, der Billeder smukt
Er hugget i Marmorstenen,
Hvor Hyrden sidder; hans Hund har sig lagt
Tæt ved ham, dens Plads vi tage
Og høre fortælle om Venskabs Pagt,
En smuk Skik fra gamle Dage.

Med et Bundt Cigarer
Da en Syndflods Vande
Bragte Død og Grav,
Mennesker og Lande
Sank i salten Hav;
Arken, da det endte,
Stod paa Ararat;
Duen Noah sendte
Ud i Frygtens Nat.
Bunden som til Sengen
Hver i Arken sad;
Duen kom fra Engen
Med et Olieblad.
Doctoren som Duen
Tidt man venter paa;
Træder han i Stuen,
Hjertet haabe maa;
Ingen Laurbærblade
Han i Munden har,
Vi ham ryge lade
Da en god Cigar.
Træder Du i Stuen,
Ryger, som vi bad,
Ja, da er Du Duen,
Som har Haabets Blad!

Republic Day Anniversary Celebration In India,2012
IRT PMC, PMCH, RTS & SoN, Perundurai
The day, we know this land is ours, our own;
The day we say all Indians are brethren;
The day we love our motherland, more than our lives;
That day, our freedom, we have truly won!
Let Indians all have just one heart;
Let’s love the soil in which we are born;
Let’s live in unity as one;
Let integrity glow brighter than sun!
Let’s remember the lives all lost,
For getting freedom at blood-cost;
Let’s preserve what with toil, they got;
Let pride not leave our land to rot!
On this great day, let’s all rejoin;
Let’s do our duty selflessly;
Let’s thank and pray to Almighty,
To guide us to heaven, safely.
