"Aking Ina"

Mahal kong Ina
Protektor ng sanlibutan
Ilaw ng aming tahanan
Tagapayo ng isang kaharian
Reyna ng mundo
Ina ng lahat ng tao
Hindi ka napapagod sa amin
Hindi mo kami sinukuan
Ang ngiti mo'y singliwanag ng araw

Ang iyong ganda at ang iyong pananalita
na kahit masungit ka, ay talaga namang
mahal mo kami
Ang kulay mo, maitin man o maputi man,
pantay parin ang tingin mo sa amin
Ang iyong ganda ay parang bulaklak
nag niningning sa ilalim ng araw

Oh! Ina ko at Ina ng lahat,
isa kang regalo na dala ay tuwa
Sa mundo, ikaw ay biyaya
Proud kami sa'yo
sanay proud karin sa sarili mo

Wala kaming magawa kung wala ka
Isang mahalagang bigay ng Diyos
Salita mo'y nakakapag papagaling ng sugat
Ang yakap mo'y nakakapag pakalma ng puso
Ang mga luha mo'y nakakapag palambot ng buto
Isang napakalaking karangalan
ang pagsilang mo sa akin.

What is this about?

"Ina" means mother. This poems tells about how grateful we are that we are born in this world by our mother or with a mother that we can depend on in all things we find very difficult and easy. The first part of the poem decribes our own mother; how we deacribe them or how we tell to them what they really are. The middle part tells us that we have different kinds of mother but still they possess the same kind of affection and care for their own children. It also tells us that there are many ways that a mother can show her love and that in every mother, various and unique skills they showcases. The last part tells more about a mother that is considered to be a gift from God and it's really an honor to be born in a cruel world with a very patient mother.
