Sa Erokan nin Paglingaw by Luis Cernuda dinakittaramon ni Jan Kevin de Quiroz

Sa erokan nin paglingaw,
sa mga hardin na mayong saldang;
kun sain ako magigi na sanang
sarong agui-agui nin gapo na tinalbong sa may awot
kun sain dinudulagan nin duros an kapirotan.

Kun sain an sakuyang ngaran babayaan
an saiyang hawak sa kalamias nin oras,
kun sain mayong mga kamawotan.

Kun sain an pagkamoot, an mangerhat na anghel,
dae papatadumon an saiyang pakpak
na garo batbat sa sakuyang puso,
nakangirit, magayon, habang mas nagkukulog.

Duman, kun sain mawawara an kahandalan
na naghahagad nin sadiring among,
isusuko an sadiring buhay sa saro pang buhay,
na mayong ibang nahihiling kundi an kaatubang.

Kun sain an kaogmahan asin kamunduan mga ngaran sana,
langit asin daga sa palibot kan memorya;
sain, sa wakas ako mapapalibre, na dae nagmamangno,
napuho sa alupuop, sa kamayoan,
kamayoan na garo kublit nin omboy.

Duman sa harayo,
sa erokan nin paglingaw.

Ika na Dae Nahihiling

Pag nagduros makusog,
siguro Ika sarong dakulang
kamot na nagkakayab
para ako takigan.

Tibaad Ika sarong nilalang
na kadakol talinga
na naghihinanyog
sa samuyang inagrangay.

Magin an buta pareho ko,
na namamaanan kang
dakulang kamot

o nilalang na dakol talinga.
Magin ako o an buta,
dae Ka nahihiling.

The Man Who Can't Be Moved - The Script

Going Back to the corner where I first saw you
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I'm not gonna move
Got some words on cardboard, got your picture in my hand
saying, "if you see this girl can you tell her where I am"

Some try to hand me money, they don't understand
I'm not broke I'm just a broken hearted man
I know it makes no sense but what else can I do
How can I move on when I'm still in love with you

Cause If one day you wake up and find your missing me
and your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet
And you'll see me waiting for you on our corner of the street
So I'm not moving, I'm not moving

Policeman says, "son you can't stay here"
I said, "there's someone I'm waiting for If it's a day, a month, a year"
Gotta stand my ground even if it rains or snows
If she changes her mind this is the first place she will go

Cause If one day you wake up and find your missing me
and your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be
Thinkin maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet
And you'll see me waiting for you on our corner of the street
So I'm not moving, I'm not moving,
I'm not moving, I'm not moving

People talk about the guy that's waiting on a girl
There are no holes in his shoes but a big hole in his world

Maybe i'll get famous as the man who can't be moved
Maybe you wont mean to but you'll see me on the news
And you'll come running to the corner
cause you'll know it's just for you
Im the man who can't be moved

Chorus 2x

Going Back to the corner where I first saw you
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I'm not gonna move

that stupid war: rough study by ~yatoy on deviantART

Nin huli ta an buhay
yaon sa saiyang kamot,
paghona niya kaya niya
na tulos ining ratakon

asin bawion.
Siya na bako man kaglalang,
hinuhugot an hinangos
hale sa daghan

nin mga tawong
mawot sana man magkontra
sa kaputikan.

Sa likod nin lente,
saindang nahiling an balang
may ukit nin saindang ngaran.

Mamundo maging Burak

Mauran makusog,
dangan masaldang nin pwerte.
Mahayop an duros asin
haros mapugto an kugos

na nagtatao sakuya nin buhay.
Aking sadit na sana
an minatino sakuya
kun bako an putakti

na lantad akong hinahabasan;
minadulok sana pag may kaipuhan.

Sa poon, masakit. Ibinubuyangyang mo
an saimong sadiri, maray na sana
ta dae ka mapapasupog
pag dae ka tinitino.

Maray pa an politikong
puro ka-lapaan an imahe,
pinag-uulayan mantang huya ako,
nagpu-porbar na hapihapon

an saimong kipot na daghan
para haleon an kulog boot
asin mga kaanggotan,
pero duros sana an naghahadok.

Doorstep

Love, here I am.
The wounds have healed
and my callused feet
have now grown well.

I have grown tired
of seeking you, Love.
Oh those cold, restless nights
that I've spent in search of you.

Love, here I am.
Deliver yourself to me
for I have prepared
a cozy home for you.

And the sun,
has gone down again.
But I;ve heard not -
not a single knock on my door.

Love, here I am.
In the morning,
I hope, I could find you
waiting at my doorstep.
