A MIRROR TO FILIPINO CULTURE

by: NORDITO S. QUIMBO

· Volume V Issue I

The Filipino language of humanity,

The amazing culture it mirrors with integrity.

The key that unlocks the treasure,

Portraying the rich heritage of limitless measure.

 

Every word is a reflection,

Of a Filipino belief and tradition.

With a glare passing to generation,

Conveying the soul of each creation.

 

The different dialects across the archipelago,

Telling stories is a struggle, and victories do.

Across challenges that language expresses,

The spirit of people in different ways and places.

 

The Filipino language we speak,

We bridge the gaps of time we make.

For each indication, a rich culture seed,

To preserve, overcome, and succeed.
