Poems by Jose Terencio

Kayuyum
by Jose Terencio*

Maeawig nga inadlaw rang handum kimo.

Kayuyum nimo't kabubut-on,
Makabibihag tueukon;
Ring taguipuso-on
Angay kontang eumunat gugmang
May kayuyum.

Eamang kon paghikawan
Ro akong mga pagtuyo,
Kahil-o kahil-o eamang
Rang pag higugmang ga hinyo.

Nga imaw rong guigunatan
Ga sugo kakon manago,
Padueong sa maeamig nga eobnganan.


*Not much is known about Mr. Jose Terencio except that he is from Makato, Aklan.
He is using the old way of writing Aklanon words.
I got this work from a term paper written by Esther Legaspi of Lezo, Aklan while studying in U.P. in the Visayas, Miag-ao, Iloilo.
