sa kasalakuyan,
nakatapak tayo sa isang malawak na lupain
at dinig ang mga martsang may ibubulong at aaminin.
sa ilang minutong inilaan,
ipapatunay
na kahit sino ay 'di bawal mahalin.
isa, dalawa, tatlo. ang laban ay pasimula na
'teka, 'wag muna...
balik! balik! tumalikod ka!
ano raw? paulit-ulit na 'to, hindi pa raw handa
balik! balik! tumalikod ka!
utos ni heneral sa unang mga kawal
na sumilip galing sa bagyong mga mata
na minana sa kalaban.
balik! balik! tumalikod na!
- ayon kay heneral luha

a baby born from a mother's womb
is a father's glory & a father's tomb.
they risk it all
they'd risk what's right
for their sunshine to grow
up a life of light-
"papa! papa? look at me
where is mama? i brood! coffee,"
father didn't budge; he sat uptight
couldn't quell her queries
but she slept through the night.
she then woke up, heard a bang! from the door
saw poor father sobbing on the floor.
"help me up child, from now on.
mother will hear us with the warplanes gone."
