Naumit man nila ang iyong hininga,/napilas man ng bala ang parte ng laman,/may isang bahagi na hindi namatay,/ang mayamang laman ng dalang sisidlan.
Habang nagbibingi-bingihan ang Maykapal,/habang nagbubulag-bulagan sa karahasan,/habang nakapinid ang puso sa kabulastugan,/masa ang tanging bibigwas sa kabalbalan!
Umasa, na sa yungyong ng dilim ay may hangganan/Magsikhay, subukang pandayin ang kinabukasan/Manguna, sa tuwing may nag-aalinlangan/Tumindig, kung ang marami ay pinanghihinaan.
bibigay ng kapanganakan/sa isang makasaysayang/pagsilang—hihinugin sa sigwa/ng isang kaganapan…/magbabadya sa isang/saglit ng katahimikan…
