In a far mountain area of Leyte
Located in the Pearl of Orient Sea
A South East Asian country
Lies a mysterious tale of Damdam
A wine bottled-size creature
Enormous critter, surpassing all others
This minuscule noshes greedily
It embezzles the mortals' ranch produce
Tote such back to his family
Unexpectedly was seized up by human
Captured and imprisoned in a corral
hopeless of escaping from their hands
To escape, might and power were used
But to the mortals pity and kindness
Released Damdam from captivity
From then on Damdam's mysterious story
Repeatedly however secretly narrated
Hoping that it's contour one day will be peeked
