THE
RESILIENCY (pause) OF A FILIPINO (pause)
By
WILLIAM G. BACANI (pause)
Stanza
I
[Unison]
Filipino
(pause) is (pause) resilient (pause)
[Charm & Anne]
Since
time immemorial (pause) we are tested (pause) by countless calamities (pause)
Volcanic
eruptions (pause) devastating earthquakes and lahar flows (pause)
Super
typhoons (pause) flash floods (pause) and landslides (pause)
Stanza
II
[Anne T, Andie, Charm & Jamilah]
Victoriously
(pause) we surmounted these ordeals and pains (pause)
Beyond
imagination of the human race (pause)
[Rikki, Martha & Anne M]
Instant
death of our loved ones (pause)
Claimed
by transportation mishaps (pause) and natural disasters (pause)
[Angelica, Myca & Allana]
Thousands
also die in hunger and malnutrition (pause)
Including
ambushes (pause) and endless wars in Mindanao (pause)
Stanza
III
[Unison]
They
trampled (pause) our basic human rights (pause) such as the right to live
(pause)
[Allana]
I
lost my loving husband (pause) who didn't want to join Abu Sayaff (pause)
[Jamilah]
I
lost my only son (pause) who opted to become (pause) a military man (pause)
Stanza
IV
[Unison]
We
lost our innocent children and women (pause)
We
lost our homes and properties (pause)
[Myca & Allana]
Survivors
are Filipinos (pause)
The
wrath of nature (pause) and cruel destiny (pause) may steal everything from us
(pause)
Wealth
(pause) properties (pause) and family (pause)
Stanza
V
[Martha & Andie]
But
the Filipinos (pause) never give up (pause)
For
us (pause) we are continuously scourged (pause) by the test of time (pause)
The
spirit to survive (pause) and to bounce back (pause) remains undefeated (pause)
Stanza
VI
[Anne T]
I’m
as pliant as a bamboo (pause) for I’m a man of Earth (pause)
[Angelica & Anne M]
My
hair (pause) may all be blown away by the winds (pause)
And
my legs (pause) may be crippled (pause) by the smash of waves (pause)
Stanza
VII
[Andie]
But
I will stand (pause) and pick up (pause) the shattered pieces (pause) of myself
(pause)
And
continue (pause) to live (pause)
[Angelica, Martha, Anne M, Charm &
Jamilah]
Resolute
to survive (pause) clothed (pause) with an inspiration to live (pause)
Not
only for my family (pause) but also (pause) for my beloved country (pause)
Filipinos
unite (pause) in the midst of crisis (pause)
Regardless
of socio-economic status (pause) tradition (pause) and creed (pause)
Stanza
VIII
[Unison]
The
world (pause) has seen (pause) the magnanimous spirit (pause)
Of
the Filipinos (pause) in crucial times (pause)
The
gap (pause) between the rich (pause) and the poor (pause) was narrowed (pause)
Envy
(pause) was replaced (pause) by sympathy (pause)
Hatred
(pause) was conquered (pause) by love (pause)
Selfishness
(pause) was set aside (pause)
And
saving one’s live (pause) is the ultimate desire (pause)
Stanza
IX
[Angelica & Charm]
History
tells us (pause) that the Filipinos (pause) have captured (pause) innumerable
foes (pause)
Natural
and not (pause) and shall always strive (pause) to champion (pause) in all odds
(pause)
Because
(pause) innate in the Filipino (pause) is the will to survive (pause)
[Rikki, Myca & Anne M]
We
may be daunted (pause) by the horrible scenes around us (pause)
But
certainly (pause) we will be strengthened (pause)
By
our unwavering faith in God (pause)
Stanza
X
[Angelica, Anne T, Charm, Anne M & Myca]
We
have been looted (pause) by many nations in the world (pause)
For
our resiliency during disasters (pause) others die in saving lives (pause)
[Andie, Rikki, Martha, Allana & Jamilah]
But
only a few realize (pause) that we are able to survive (pause)
Because
our spirit to fight (pause) is deeply anchored from faith (pause)
That
God Almighty (pause) will never forsake us (pause)
Stanza
XI
[Martha]
I
believe (pause) that Filipinos (pause) divided (pause) by varied doctrines and
cultures (pause)
Are
capable (pause) to be on top (pause) of any situation (pause)
[Unison]
If
united (pause) together (pause) we can face (pause) any challenge ahead of us
(pause)
We
may stumble and fall (pause) but we will bounce back (pause)
Arms
stronger (pause) with vision and faith (pause)
That
after darkness (pause) after pains and sufferings (pause)
The
Filipino survives (pause)
The
Filipino (pause) is resilient (stop)
The reason why we can't start our practice on Tuesday is because I have my band practice. I promise to make it up to you guys. I will make sure that we can finish the whole performance by November 29, 2013.
