Picked thee on head high
With crowd my side by
From batchmates away
To them again, hey
It’s called here “apoy”

A highschool batchmate
Parish affiliate
Rich and religious
Family Venus
Of the Ilawod

Fourth month and sixth day
It’s a Good Friday
After procession
Night lights were turned on
Before the “duaw”

Where people cluster
On banwa proper
Second last caro
Float San Enchero
A Station of Cross

Again with batchmates
Like the former years
Somehow miracle
Rare get-together
The Lord bonds us here!
