Biyaya Ng Ulan - Blessing of Rain

Ulang malamig
Tuloy-tuloy ang tagas
Sa yerong butas

Kapeng mainit
May tinapay at pansit
Biyayang sulit

Translation:

The cold rainwater
That just keeps flowing inside
The hole in the roof

Boiling hot coffee
Bread with Chinese rice noodles
Blessing so worth it

It is now raining. The fact that I have a leaking roof does not keep me from enjoying what I have. A good breakfast and a roof over my head. It even enhances my pleasure and gratitude.
