would be “Harry,” changed
from hairy...

Sa isang malamig na sulok ng lilim,
girian ay lumalalim,
liwanag laban sa dilim,
araw ay palubog ng palubog,
dahan-dahan,
mahinahon,
ngunit ang iniwa'y dumudugong kalawakan,
pulang-pula,
ito ay rebolusyon ng pag-ibig,
himagsikan sa araw ni santo valentino,
tulad ng spaghetii al' amatriciana,
sa ating harapan...

Buhangin sa iyong balikat, 
mula sa pagkakadapa,
Maiitim na markang iyong nakikita,

Invited them for lunch
Looking at...

Jacob loved Rachel
Laban connived
Jacob wed Leah
Leah, weak eyed
Jacob wed Rachel
Seven long years!

Rachel was loved

See, a son!
Leah bore Simeon
God has heard!
Leah bore Levi
I am attached!
Leah bore Judah
Now, I...

Head in the Heavens
  Feet planted on Earth
Jacob, renamed Israel
  Mocked for his birth

Mislabeled 'The Supplanter'
  Though Esau tricked him
Pushed his twin brother aside
  Emerging first-born with a grin

Then the imposter...

Sa kanilang mga anino,
Kami’y kanilang itinago
Lagi kami ang sinusuyo
Na manatili lang sarado

Na dating walang pumapanig
Noong kami ay nalulupig
Ngunit ngayon, kami’y titindig

At bakit naman kami matitinag?
Dahil ba kami ay babae lamang?
At bakit...
