We Shall Return There Again

kini ang wala na nimo makita
gusto nimong ilubong
ang imong hulagway

this is what you have not seen
you want to bury

diha sa likod sa balay nga nipa

nga wala na mamunga
sa layo dili na nimo

at the back of your house made of nipa shingles
beside the langka tree
which did not bear fruits
at the distance you cannot

kaayo maklaro ang usa ka iro
nga puti nga dunay puntik
nga itom sa iyang wala nga mata
gutom nangarol bahong
patay nga baki

with a black make on its eye
hungry and sickly and smelling
like a rotten dead toad


wala na'y tawo kining balaya
hagbay ra namong gibiyaan

no one lives in this house anymore
it was long ago that they left

ang nagpabilin lamang
mao angmga handurawan
nga nagpunay og hinuktok
sa kilid sa bintana
nga hagbay rang nadugta


what is left here are only the memories
which are restless
by the side of the window
which was also rotten

gibitik ang iro
gihimong sumsuman
