Rating: 5.0


PAALAM MAHL KUNG KAIBIGAN(MARY WISMER)
FAREWELL DEAR FRIEND (MARY WISMER)
Melvin Banggollay


Sa maikling panahong ika'y nakilala
Sa diwa ng iyong mga tula at panata
Ako'y nabighani sa yong mga akda
pagkat dala nito'y bulong ng pag-asa
Taos na pagmamahal sa yong kapwa.

Just only for a short time I have known thee
through the thoughts of your poems and beliefs
I am truly amazed for all you have made
For it brings to me whisper of hope
and unselfish love to fellow human beings.

Tunay kang dakila sa mata ng madla
pagkat busilak ang puso mo't pananalita
na hatid sa aki'y panibagong pag-asa
na kahit kaano kahirap ang buhay kung dala
pag may pananlig sa Dios ay makakaya.

Truly you are great in the eyes of men
For you have a golden heart and words
that gives me renewed strength and hope
that no matter how hard is my life's fate
I can succeed if I have strong faith in God.

Ang yong buhay ay isang modelong dakila
ng isang buhay na kahit ito'y nagdurusa
dahil sa sakit na walang lunas o medisina,
ito'y puno pa rin ng pananalig at pag-asa
at pagmamahal sa Dios na walang alintana
ialay ang buhay sa pagsisilbi sa Dios Ama.

You're life is one great example or model
of a life even if it full of pains and suffering
with an illness that has no cure or medicine
Still, it is full of undying faith and hope,
and love to the Holy Father without regret
and ever willing to offer own life serving God.

Magpakailanman ay di ka mawawala
Sa mundong ibabaw dahil sa yong mga tula
na magpakailanman hatid ay pag-asa
dahil ang diwa ng iyong mga tula at gawa
ay lalagi sa aming puso't at memorya.
.

Forever, you will never ever fade away
beneath this world for your poems will be
forever brings strength, hope and faith
for the spirit of your works will always be
dwelling deep inside n our hearts and memory.


Paalam, paalam, mahal kung kaibigan
buhay mo may maikli ito'y isang dakilang yaman
ng buhay na pinagpala at may kahalagahan
Pagkat iyong nagampanan misyon mo sa sanlibutan
bilang makatang ilaw at inspirasyon sa karamihan.

Gooby, goodbye, my deat great friend
Your life so short but its a great golden treasure
of a truly blessed life and full of significance
For you have done so well your mission to mankind
as a poet serving as light and inspiration to everyone.

At sa iyong pagpanaw sa iyong lupang katawan
Dalhin mo ang bawat dalangin ng mga kaibigan
at sa busilak mong puso, at anking katauhan
at sa iyong walang kamatayang pananalig sa Kataastaasan
Alam kung sa harden ng Dios ang yong patutunguhan.

And as you go away from your earthly body
Take the prayers and wish of every freind
and with the purity of your heart and personality
and with your undying faith to the Heavens
I know, the garden of God, will be your final destiny.
