Filipino Version of my Poem : FOR THE LOVE OF NATURE
In lieu of the Bayanihan Project, I´d like to share the Filipino version of the poem I composed " For the love of Nature" some years back. I did my best to translate the poem originally written in english into the Filipino version and hope that some of those poets in the Pinoy Community would comment or suggest to improve this translation.
Para sa Pagmamahal sa Kalikasan
by Mers
sa pagitan ng mga hamog ng umaga
panaginip koy tuluyang pumanaw na
kitay nakikita sa mayuming dampi ng liwanag
sa unang sulyap pag ibig ko sa iyoy di matitinag
nakakabingi man ang daanang mapanglaw
kasunod nito ay kakaibang sayang tanglaw
pagkat sa bawat huni ng mumunting mga ibon
itoy pasimula na magagandang araw ang tugon
iyong kagandahay walang katumbas kahit ano man
akoy natutuwa sa labis at handog mong kasiyahan
aking ginigiliw at minamahal ang mapalapit sa iyo
itoy isang pangako na kailanmay di mapapako
Pinupuri koy mga likha ng Maykapangyarihan
Sa aking isipan handog koy pinapahalagahan
Ang kasabihang mga tula ay gawa ng mangmang na tulad ko
Itoy aking hinayaan pagkat Inang Kalikasan ikay minamahal ko
FOR THE LOVE OF NATURE
by Mers
the midst of the morning dews
my dream vanished in its hues
I see you in the soft touch of light
thought of it as love at first sight
the solitude of a pathway deafening
but what follows later enticing
for when larks start humming
new days enhance a bright beginning
your beauty is a delight beyond compare
it´s nice to know the pleasure you share
I love the thought of being near you dearly
tis a pledge I´d like to go through clearly
I praise the Almighty for his creation
in silence I give him my appreciation
it is said that poems are made by fools like me
this I let be, for mother nature I truly love thee.
