Waray Poem:

An Iroy nga Tuna 

by Iluminado Lucente


An Iroy nga Tuna matam-is pagpuy-an
Bisan diin siplat puros kasangkayan
Hahani an hingpit nga ak kalipayan
Hahani hira nanay pati kabugtuan.
Lugaring mahiblon, ha dughan mabug-on
Nga an Pilipinas dayuday uripon
Ay Tuna, nga ak natawohan!
Hain daw an hingpit nga at katalwasan?

English Translation:
The Motherland



In the motherland we love to inhabit
Friends is what you see everywhere
Friends that bring laughter and joys
Mother is here with some companions.

Even alone in the dark
The hold is still strong
Philippines, which became a slave
Oh land, I was born
I am looking for the happiness inside.
