"Wake Your Soul" by The Hope Arsenal, translated to Tagalog
Ipagdamot ang banaag sa mga mata
sa muling pagbagsak ng ulan
at hustuhin ang anuman.
Pagtambalin - isipa't paniniwala.
Takot na lumayas;
hindi nga mapakali.
Hahablutin kahit ng sulyap
pag-asa kong nakalaon sa bukas.
Nag-iisa't giniginaw.
Bigla na lang magugunaw;
at tatandang sabay kay Haring Araw
Matikas, sa kabila ng agos;
ka'y madudulas, magbubuntong-hininga.
Magbabagang lubos ang siniga
kaya't gisingin ang kalul'wa
bago tuluyang iwanan ka.

Oublier la belle
No trace of blue in my sockets;
no red paint on either cheek;
none on the forehead as well;
but my words – they slur as I speak.
My feet are in a hurry;
my mind in the comfort of clouds.
The river is calm as today's skies.
I wiped off the mote in my brow.
Desires uncertain, motives unclear—
I cannot distinguish for sure.
Did I mistake for having forgotten
When in truth I had only let go?
The mote to my horror is blue.
