Para Kay Abyan Pilar

Indi ako pagpamangkuta
Sang mga nagkalatabo
Kagapon. Wala na gani
Ako nagkuha laragway
Sang mga kinahanglan
Lipatan. Kay man
Bisan ano pa ka hugot
Ang pagpanghawid
Sang mga nagaangkas
Nga handurawan
Sang nagligad nga gab-i,
Kinahanglan ini sila
Idul-ong kag bayaan,
Agod magpadayon
Sa pagpanglakaton
Subong nga adlaw.
