Niyanga Ta Payaba Ko Ika (With English Translation) Poem by Rey Benipayo

Niyanga ta payaba ko ika
Maski idi mo man ako payaba
Ta aram ko may namomotan ka nang iba
Na mas maray pa sa ko
Inda ko sana basta nakamamati lang ako
Na idi ka sa puso ko nabubuway
Siguro ika kan naga tao
Ning inspirasyon sa ko
Para maging maray na tao
Para magpatuloy kan buway ko
Kaya payaba ko ika
Kaya ok na sa ko kadi
Na makitaka lang sa urualdaw
Maski ukay na sigundo lang
Pero idi ko talaga aram
Kung niyanga ta payaba ko ika!

Why do I love you?
Even though you don't love me
That you love somebody
Much better than me
I don't know, all I know
Is I feel you in my heart
Maybe you're the one
Giving me inspiration
To be a better person
To live my life each days
That's why I love you
So it's just ok for me
To see you everyday
Even for a seconds
But I still really don't know
Why do I love you!
