Pila ka kagabhi-on ang mga nilabay,
Dughang natagak na gibalik ug tapok
sama sa mga sanina sa ukay-ukay;
gilibutan sa kahibulongan ug katingalaan,
nangitag bubong na akong masandigan;
nangitag mga pulong na arun akong madula-dulaan.
Utok na sige'g kahinuktok,
aduna ba'y buwak na wala'y tunok na makatusok?
Puno sa mga pangutana,
apan kini wala nimo tubaga.

Maaghop na pagduyan sa hangin,
Mangatik diay ang mga buwak?
sama sa usa ka tunokon na buwak;
mga tam-is na labtik sa ilang mga dila,
nagpagawas ug hapsay na mga sturya,
sama sa mga linya sa usa ka salida.

Clothes of all kinds
on the sidewalks
sold for crazy cheap prices.

Kids and old people alike
scramble fast towards through mountains
of bargains, this once inaccessible
and highly prized scene of Fashion sense,
separating the haves and the have-nots.

I was born with skin color, names, and belongings
that no longer made sense when the time came
to decide and become.  I ran to meet a friend at a corner
a long time ago when the Ukay surplus clothing stores
were just starting out.

He carried a plastic of hiking boots
and a pair of stylish jeans. Laughing and smiling
at the exchanges. A pair of running shoes
and a jacket that was already too big for a woman.
