Balik la anay pag katurog,
Samtang na hangkop an bulan ha mga bituon.
Waray pa man tumugaok an mga manok,
Waray pa gihap ka papas adton kahagkot.
Ipiyong la anay an imo mata,
Hirayuay pa ma aga,
Ma-iiha ka pa hit hulat.
Higda la anay, niyan na buhรกt.
English Translation:

Lie Down For Now

Lie down again, return to sleep,
While the moon embraces the stars.
The roosters have not yet crowed,
Nor has the cold yet faded.
Close your eyes for a while,
Dawn is still far away,
It will be a long wait.
Lie down for now, the time to rise will come.
