Bangod sa kadulom kang bulsa ni Lolo
Lansang ang lapis ni tatay
Sim kag kahoy ang ana ginsulatan
Kag sa indi maisip nga pokpok
Ako hay nangin maestro.
-a translation of “Eansang Nga Lapis” originally written in the Aklanon language by a revolutionary poet who is known by the name of George Tumaob Calaor
This poetry in translation is a work in progress as there are words that I find difficult to translate in the regional language of Kinaray-a. Be that as it may, I wish to extend my cordial invitation for you to read my thoughts on poetic verses and check my blog site STROKES OF MY HAND via http://yulespartero.blogspot.com
