on your cheeks

sweet sorrow on my window
uhm...that, i already know
but i wish it didn't show
cause i am dreaming of you

a stroll to rose garden
so many flowers to be seen
yet we pick the one we love
that makes our heart throb

and when the petals are gone
fruits will be on your hand
then savor the ripen gift
wipe those tears, on your cheeks

...i have to take a rest now
thanks God for bringing me
to you.

apaered palbangon

apaered palbangon


say kareenan binetag na potpot
tan saray eyag na manlalakoy balut
aliingan koy linggas mon akalirep
tan saray limak iran akatalikepkep

buwek moy akaseksek ed apingko
ngalngalik ketketen so layag mo
pabalingit moy makapabegas na bago
esaesan taka komon; aralem so ugip mo

maaron angub diyad aping indepel
gemgem koy likna tan maksil ya tepel
inpatikyab koy kanonotan kod atep
ayayamen koray iliw angngad ayepyep

un-unnoyen

nadungngo nga araraw agdama
samiweng ni ayat a naidenna
bitek nagnaed ti barukong
sumisingising aglaylayon

arimasaen dagiti mata agur-uray
ti isasangbay lailo nga ipaay
numan pay narasaw ti namnama
lagip parnuayen nat dana

payak ikumkumpas nat darikmat
sagabassit agkupit dagiti sugat
aay! apo nagimasen a kudkuden
kasta met tay rikna un-unnoyen

alingasngas

simoy ng hangin sa dahon dinig
kalakip ng lambing sadyang nanaig
mga bungang isip nasang ipagunita
sa gitna ng langit nailalathala

ngiting salubong sa madaling-araw
namumukadkad nagbibigay tanglaw
mga bakas sadyang nakaukit sa palad
punasan mo man, mayroon pa rin lantad

bright day

western wind stayed
longer than it should
played with trees
blowing kisses

brought down the clouds
tamed the rivers
let the children played
made a very peaceful day

patak ng langit

simoy ng hangin hilahila ang kulimlim
nagbibigay katahimikan sa nararating
kaluskus ng mga pakpak lilipadlipad
nagmamadaling makauwi sa kanilang pugad

halimuyak ng hanging kalakip ulan
parating binabaybay ang kalawakan
daho'y nagsasayawan, nagsasayahan
nagnanasang sa saglit mapapatakan

alikabok sa lupang aking ina-apakan
nagpapadamang pawiin ang kauhawan
gayun din ang ilog gustong maragdagan
para umagos at magsilbi sa mamamayan

mga pangarap malapit ng magkatotoo
naramdaman ko na ang basang samyo
ng malakas na tunog ng tubig pumapatak
sa kapligiran, ako'y basang nagagalak

balls in my pocket

rain, the master of the course
keeps us bundled indoors
umbrella, helpless for ease
green, not pleasing to be a place

bunker turns to a pond
keepers bring out the pump
geese, ducks they don't mind
this weather is just fine

rain is pouring steady to the beat
fairways are thirsty; no flow yet
flags are soggy, drooping down
so quiet, no familiar sound

why

awake at the break of dawn
new thoughts slowly borne
sticky fingers, frighten
my shadow fading to heaven

memories,linger to surface
smile, i'm too much please
why won't you keep the keys
so pretty; your eyes inplace

paano ka na ngayon

malayang panaginip alay
tamis sa bawat himlay
ng gabing nagbibigay saysay
nagnanasang mabibigyang kulay

bibig nakatikum sa kumpas ng pitik
nanalig sa pangarap yaring kalakip
simoy ng hangin sa labi'y humahalik
tinatamasa ang bawat nagdaraang saglit

mga matang sa bintana nakatanaw
nangungulila, paminsa'y panakaw
hanggat abutin ng dapit hapon
nangangambang paano ka na ngayon

Labels:

ulap bughaw

malambing na ulap bughaw
sa hardin mo abot tanaw
hanggang naglahong unti-unti
tangay ang kaligayahang munti

panay titig mo kalakip ngiti
'di mo namalayang paos mong labi
hanggang naglahong unti-unti
tangay ang kaligayahan mong munti

mayroong naiwang himlay ng alaala
sa masuyo mong tabing nakalathala
para man sakali sila'y makadama
ng kasiyahan at pagkamangha

talking heads

I came and heard with giggle
tip toeing on the marble
so happy i could feel
walk as if with sail

told me about route to home
where she encountered mean person
shine their lights so bright
cut her off; it ain't right

i don't always have the right answer
i try that's all i can remember
sometimes i don't listen to what was said
but i piece them together before i go to bed

passing by

sitting here,i used to be
by the banks of the bay
playing with endless horizon
and dreams that go on and on

i enjoy breeze; seems to be alive
otters do their fantastic dives
breaking waves against the rocks
scampering crabs always on guard

so beautiful when sun is rising
crimson ball worthy of praising
clouds soft as feather passing by
please come back... gentle sigh
