Ara kaw bala kasapo

Didn’t you notice before

Ga buyong-buyong ang barko
That a boat turns left and right
Nagapangita rikudo
Looking for a landing-place
Yadtong punduhon maayo
Where it can anchor safely?
(Finding the right and well thought decision)

Nos anod di anod wan

Its a fact that we all know
Nos anod ti tuo wan
A truth wherever we go
Kayaw toy was lanbungan
The sun is in the afternoon
Kayaw ambaba yi man
will be setting very soon.
(Accepting the ageing and dying is something we all
share)
