Avery Eglantine Poems

Sa pagtatagpo ng mga ligaw na landas
Bunga'y pag-ibig na tunay at wagas
bagamat balakid buhat ay panibugho
mangyaring takasan pighati't siphayo
...

There's a time, when I want to write
but I have nothing to write
When I want to speak
and there's nothing to speak
...

Habang palakad sa nagbabagang kalsada
Tila anino ng bata'y naaaninag
Dala'y posporo't patpat, nagsusunog pa
Tanghaling tapat, di ba banaag?
...

Kung mamarapatin
muli'y aking sasambitin
Salitang nais iparating
ang tanging hinaing
...

Sa karimlan ng gabi
Mga bitui'y sa langit nakahabi
Sa katagalan, karimlan ay lubos na
ako'y namulat sa tunay na hiwaga
...

I am afraid of everything.
I am not afraid of friendship, I'm afraid I'd be fooled.
I am not afraid of relationship, I'm afraid I'd get rejected.
I am not afraid of heights, I'm afraid of falling
...

'Hijo de puta ka! '
'Wala kang kwenta! '
Ang bungad pagdating mula sa paaralan
Nag-aral ng mabuti, sinikap umunlad
...

'Twas the birth of enticing light
in this dark garden, so old.
Naught so tricky nor playful life
in this abstract world.
...

This feeling I can't explain
I can't express! This little secret!
aah! I can't sleep at night!
The memory of you flashes back
...

Un sentimiento oculto
No puedo mostrar.
Una emoción irónico
No puedo cantar.
...
