Maligayang kaarawan sa isang taong minsang
nagbigay kahulugan sa aking naghihingalong puso!
Salamat sa tulang ito!

(Happy birthday to a person who once
gave meaning to my dying heart!
Thank you for this poem!)

“When I first met you
You’re just a mere friend to me
…jolly
…lovable
…cute

I found myself so fond of you
I like your ways, your personality
We shared wonderful moments
…joking
…laughing
…teasing

Surprising moments come
You love me
…with sincerity
…in truth
…in endurance

Love came to me beyond expectation
I learned to love and care for you
Now, we’re sharing sweet moments
With mutual love and affection
I was then convinced…

YOUR FRIENDSHIP IS THE GREATEST!”
