Ginku-kugos ko an ulunan nga imo gin gamit.
Samtang an mahagkot nga hangin naharumhom ha akon panit.
Nag-hihinulat ha imo pag-balik, bisan san-o, bisan diin.
Gin-gapos ha tuna han mga hinumduman nga nagpa-bilin.
Gin-tuman ko an aton saad ha ilarom han kahoy
Nga mag-huhulat ako bisan an kalibutan magubot ngan magmasamok.
Iilubon an kamingaw nga ha dughan nag-aawit
Aantuson an duro nga kasubo ngan kapait.
Ngan umabot gihap an takna nga ak' ginpamulat
An im' pag-balik ha akon kasingkasing nag-aghat
Napuno'n kalipay, pag-laum sugad hin balagun nga kumanap.
Saksi an langit, unta dire la patahap.
Ngan yana kay aanhi ka na man
Pipiriton ko pag-huring an imo ngaran
Pamad-a na an luha ha im' mata, sipat la ha ak' bayhon.
Samtang hangkop mo an ladawan ha bawbaw han akon lungon.

English Translation:
I held the pillow you once knew,
As the cold wind whispered, piercing through.
Awaiting your return, come when, come where,
Bound to this earth by memories we share.
Beneath the tree, our promise I kept true,
To wait though chaos brewed, and worlds turned new.
To bear the longing, singing in my breast,
Endure the sorrow, bitter and unblessed.
And then the moment, long yearned for, came to be,
Your presence stirring hope within my heart, you see.
Joy overflowed, like vines that gently creep,
Heaven as witness, may this promise deeply keep.
And now that you are finally here,
Your name, I'll try to whisper near.
Dry now the tears that dim your sight, and gaze upon my face,
While you embrace the image on my coffin's final resting place.
