(para ed si rosa Maria Magno)



bulag ak ed amin ya aoaran

nisulat onong ed si Urduja

ta ag ko amta ni ya ikbanan

ira'y masnag ya uliran tonia



say simbolon tekep na angaran to

kabiangan la'y dala ed olat ko

linmamut tan inmotel la'd puso

tan kinmetket met la'd inkatoo



say maaoaran ya pakanengnengan

sarag ko ya ilikdem no bilang

nagimperan tonia'y pananisian

kinmeta la'd belas na liknaan



pulyan yonompaspas so kolor to

ed ontumbuk ya kailalakan




Crediting Poetry —Seamus Heaney

When the poet W.B. Yeats stood on this platform more than seventy years ago, Ireland was emerging from the throes of a traumatic civil war that had followed fast on the heels of a war of independence fought against the British. The struggle that ensued had been brief enough; it was over by May, 1923, some seven months before Yeats sailed to Stockholm, but it was bloody, savage and intimate, and for generations to come it would dictate the terms of politics within the twenty-six independent counties of Ireland, that part of the island known first of all as the Irish Free State and then subsequently as the Republic of Ireland.
