-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.

As I heard a sad
story of a woman named
Elysée,
I am standing to tell the entire world about it.
The woman who knows her value.
As some mercenaries called
M23 entered her house around
a day and foced her to lay on the ground
while looking at the sky.
She listened to them and laid easily
on the floor to avoid to be slaughtered
or shot publicly.
As she refused to sleep
with some mercenaries,
She was hit,
raped,
and mutilated ...
her eyes gouged out
in the presence of her children
and husband.
I can say loud, "
Woe to these heartless
Rwandan mercenaries."
As the women celebrate today
March 8, 2025.
My call to you dear mamas and sisters,
" feel the pains of Congolese women
Oh wise women of the World.
Stand with the women of Goma
and Bukavu who are victims of daily atrocities.
So sad as many women of northern, southern
Kivu and ituri continue to be preys of some rebels
and mercenaries.
Promenade on mountain
rwenzori in Goma.
We were in black and white on the snow
looking at the nice view
of the northern KIVU.
She was over the moon
As it was her first time to be
At such wonderful place.
Speaking silently
with her big eyes.
Staring at me fearlessly,
beautiful personality
whom my eyes kept
seeing for some years.
the promenade was fantastic,
As I was surrounded by some good folks
Enjoying the beauty of DRCongo in peace.
beside multiple attacks and rebellions
in some parts of East of DRCongo
which always provoked
by some jealous
neighbours
of DRCongo who are supported
by the international community
and some super powers countries
to divide DRCongo into many countries
for them to continue stealling
Congolese's natural resources.
Majority Congolese remain very kind
people on this planet
As they always fear God.
Wait please!
I was waiting to lose Weight.
Come please!
She was coming from Coma.
Go please!
He was going to Goma.
Do please!
She did well at Donga
Eat please!
He was eating cakes on Easter.
