Magkikita-kita pa rin tayong mulî
Magsásalu-salong dî nagmámadalî
Sa pinagdaanan babangon, babawi.

Ang dî nakadalaw at dî nakauwî
Ang maglalakbáy pa sa malayong lahì
Makararatíng din nang maluwalhatì.

Ang dilím ng ulap ngayó’y nahahawì.
Ang luhà sa matá at ngitî sa labì
Hamóg at kulay ng bagong bahagharì.
