So, how are you?
Hopefully, you don’t have that cough anymore,
Because that would be tough for me for sure.
So, how was your day?
You might be up again till the morning,
Because you have been thinking, writing.
So, how is your heart?
If it is hurting,
Don’t worry, I’m here to listen.
So, will you not ask how I am?
For you, that might not be a big issue,
While I’m here, so much missing you.
--Originally written in Winaray--
Ginmimingaw Ako Ha Imo
*Ano kumusta ka na?
Kunta diri ka na gin-iinubo,
Kun diri, masusubo gud ako.
Ano kumusta an imo adlaw?
Bangin nagpiniraw ka na liwat,
Pagpinanhuna-huna, pagsinurat.
Ano kumusta an imo kasing-kasing?
Kin malain it imo ginbabati,
Ayaw kabaraka, pwede man ako mamati.
Ano diri ka mangungumusta ha akon?
Para ha imo, waray la siguro,
Samtang ako adi, ginmimingaw ha imo hin duro.*
