Sana Guro

Balita ko ika'y huwara't marangal. Natutuwid mo raw baluktot na asal? Ngunit ano 'tong aking nabalitaang Guro'y nabuwal. Guro' ka't nalimutan? Balita ko sa iyo'y walang tutulad. Nalilimot mo raw iyong mga hangad? Ngunit ano 'tong aking nabalitaang Ulirang guro, ika'y napagbintangan. Aywan ba, bakit ka nila ginaganyan? Papel mo'y kay laki naman sa lipunan. Sana ang susunod kong mababalitaan Minahal ka na nila't pinarangalan... 05/21/17

My attempt to translate the wonderful verses, you may post again in English, too: Hopefully Teacher I know you are honorable. Do you straighten the crooked behavior? But what I've learned The teacher fell down. Master 'was forgotten? My story to you is nothing like that. Do you forget your desires? But what I've learned Exact teacher, you are accused. Do you know why, why did they do that? Your role is in society. I hope next I will hear it They love you and are honored ...

A profound Tagalog poem filled with deep emotions and remarkably written. I hope you would write an English translation along with it so our foreign writers and readers can understand it. Magaling, kabayan!
