Yayang Ko

(Pakatatayaan Ak’n)

Silence of my aching heart I wish you to hear;
A lost echo that vibrates like the roaring waves of Lanao,
You alone can distinguish and you alone can hear…

Agape was I when a man like you came to ease the pain;
Never will I forget the moment you tried—Giving me the long search that my lonely face believed in…

Knights of all lands will never resound the echo
Of the never-ending affection you will enlighten—forever!

People of our time may not be able to recognize
A love that only comes from a man with courage;Knots of the tied servants of the heart may attest…

Aspiring knights shall never cease the heart I gave To my knight who captured my lonely face
Amazingly without a doubt who can fight…
Trembling heart of mine, you eased with faith;A faith that only God has the power to readYour longing and powerful zeal, to Him, you reveal.

A masterpiece who became you,
An artist who painted the love my face reveal,
Now and forever, I shall treasure…

Artists of all genres may not believe the faith that you have;
Knowledge of all intellectuals may argue but…
Nay, will I regret forever that I have Yayang ko!
