Samtang diri pa kita,
Pag aadman ko la anay ada,
Pag higugma hit ak' kalugaringon
Pag hulat hit imo pag baton.
An pag higugma, ibubutang la anay ha ref
Puputson hin makaruruyag nga surudlan,
Hihipuson hin maupay,
Ngan isasalin para kinabuwasan.
Babantayan ka tikang ha hirayo,
Iihapon an kada segundo
Itatago la anay an bukad ha kamot
Ngan an mga pulong nga karuyag ipaabot.
Ipapaagi ko la ada ine anay
Ha mga sininsilyo nga piyesa ngan pahaliday
Ngan tungod nga waray pa umabot an panahon,
Susundon la anay an balud, ngan ha baras iglulubong.
Kumusta ka daw la?
Hin-o taada hit im' huna-huna?
Ambot. Diri ak maaram hit imo ibabaton.
Sanglit hihigugmaon ko la anay ikaw hin hilom.
(sugad hin bring home, inen gugma, ha ref la anay hihipuson)

English Translation:
Because "we" are not yet, you see,
I'll learn, instead, to simply be.
To love this self, my own true core,
And wait for your heart to open the door.
This love, I'll place within the cool,
A lovely vessel, a gentle rule.
I'll keep it safe, with tender care,
A future's gift, beyond compare.
From distant shores, I'll watch you gleam,
And count the seconds, like a dream.
The flowers held, I'll keep concealed,
The words unsaid, yet deeply revealed.
I'll send my feelings, soft and low,
In coins and whispers, to and fro.
And since the time is not yet nigh,
I'll follow waves, where secrets lie.
How do you fare? What thoughts reside?
Who lingers deep, within your tide?
I know not what your answer brings,
So silently, my heart still sings.
