-Pana ni Pina-
15 Ang dalagang si Pina
Maliksi't abenturosa
16 Mahilig magtungo
Sa bundok pinakaulo
17 Tanging pana ang tangan
Mga palaso kasamahan
18 Sa ibon iduduro
Makabasag-bungo
19 Dali-daling sasaluhin
Ang ibong kukunin
20 Kaytibay na goma
Nakakapit sa narra
21 Ang pana ni Pina ay iyon
Dala niya saanman pumaroon.

Pag-asa ng Tanga
Inulo ang bato
Nabasag ang bungo
Lumukso sa laot
Pating humablot
Sa bangin tumalon
Kalansay umambon
Naglaro sa apoy
Napaso, tumaghoy
Humawak sa kidlat
Nalitson ang balat
‘Yan ang napapala
Ng tulad kong tanga
Dulot ng tadhana
O tangi mang likha
Maibalik pa kaya
Katawang luray na?
Diyos lang ang pag-asa
Ng tangang buhay pa.
