Sabungan                                              Cockfight Sa pula!                                                  For the red! Sa puti!                                                   For the white! Anopaman dumating                          However they come piliin ang magiting                              choose the valiant tumaya sa tindig                                   gamble on their carriage pagpaboran                                           and consider bawat katunggali.                                 each competitor. Sumiping sa dilim                                Make love with the dark at sumigaw                                            and cry Kristo! Kristo!                                        Christ! Christ! Panoorin ang laban                              Watch closely the battle sarsuelang mapanganib                      this dangerous sarsuela kawatang sumasanib                           a thief takes over sa aking piling                                      inside. Sa bawat kong hiyaw,                          Every shriek ang kada tuka, laslas                            each peck, a slash nagmula sa dahas                                of ruthlessness and lumilipana ang daing                           cries all around dumadaginding ang bagsik                echo ferociousness bawat laban pilit.                                  of this stilted struggle Kristo! Kristo!                                       Christ! Christ! sigaw ng sabungero                             screamed the sabungero at ako'y tumigil.                                   I stop. Sa pagpanaw                                        When all is gone manalo                                                   win matalo                                                    lose walang pareho tumingin                    no one sees evenly sa aking balahibong                            my feathers pula at puti                                           of red and white sa alabok                                               on the surface dust kumalat                                                 they lay lumipad                                                 they fly lumahong taimtim.                             and vanish without a thought.
