Perlas

(A poem)

Kapiranggot na butil,

Walang tumbas na kinang at aliw,

May halaga, kayamanan na tunay,

Pinagmulan, hindi mapapawalay.

Itinago ang kahalimuyakan,

Karagatan ng kayabayanan, pinilitang abutin,

Yaman ng lupa, ipinukaw ng luha,

Kumawala, naglaho, walang bakas ng butil.

Ipinagtanggol, ipinaglaban,

Huwag sa haka-haka mabaling,

Sa estranghero, ibinahagi,

Buong lupa'y kinamkam, perlas na yaman inagos pailalim.
