If you want to be of service,
You must be like water
A cup of it sustains life
While a torrent destroys another
Like water, service must be free
Without hope for reward or any fancy
Service, like a river, always flowing
Always majestic, and never resting
Service is like water in abundance
Should be used as a gentle …

Ang gusto ko sa babae
Ay yung kayang tanggapin ako
Magmamahal sa’kin kahit wala akong silbe
Yung tipong tutupad sa pangako
Ang babaeng ipinagmamalaki ako
Kahit sa totoo’y walang kwenta ako
Ang babaeng simple, pero naiiba
At hindi ako basta ikahihiya sa iba.
Ang babaeng talagang mailap mahanap sa mundo
Ang babaeng, pag nahanap mo naman, eh di naman …

ahh.. buhay, buhay..
Its quite fast to grow up, considering the fact that I can still remember the times when all I have to do is play and have fun. no problems in the world can shake me then. Except the problems with playing.

Silently she sleeps
still unaware
that her love is nearby
if she could only wake
and if magic of love could partake

Carefully he wonders
if she does really care
and the magic of love decipher
one of its own wares

her face hidden in the pillow
hidden from his stare
even then she wonders
if he does really care
somewhere. someday yonder

“Kaibigan”
Ako’y isang Kaibigan
na iyong maaasahan
sa kalungkutan at ligaya
ako’y iyong kasama

Sa bawat tagumpay
lagi mo akong ka-tagay
wag lang masobrahan
at baka sumakit ang ating tiyan

Kapag ika’y nalulumbay

Magkahiwalay man ng landas
pagkakaibigan natin ay di kukupas
at sa bawat pagkikita natin
ika’y …
