IF YOU CAN AFFORD (KUNG KAYA MO NA)

[cloudspyder]

IF YOU CAN AFFORD
If you can afford to taste your own sweat
If you can afford to feel the heat under the sun
If you can afford bathe in dark mud
If you can eat bananas bark
If you can afford the magreverse meal
If you can afford to cry silently
If you can then shout without a voice
If you can then follow without asking
If you can even smile even sadly
If you can wake up while everyone is asleep
If you can come as they go home
If you can afford to celebrate Christmas with yourself
If you can afford to celebrate new year alone
If you are afford to celebrate your birthday in the absence of your family
You can afford to become a soldier

KUNG KAYA MO NA
Kung kaya mo na ang lasa ng sarili mong pawis
Kung kaya mo na ang pakiramdam ng mabilad sa init
Kung kaya mo na ang maligo sa maitim na putik
Kung kaya mo na ang kumain sa balat ng saging
Kung kaya mo na ang magreverse meal
Kung kaya mo na ang umiyak ng walang halinghing
Kung kaya mo na ang sumigaw ng walang boses
Kung kaya mo na ang sumunod ng hindi nagtatanong
Kung kaya mo na ang ngumiti kahit malungkot
Kung kaya mo na ang gumising habang lahat ay tulog
Kung kaya mo na ang dumating habang sila ay pauwi
Kung kaya mo na ang magpasko kasama ang sarili mo
Kung kaya mo na ang magbagong taon mag-isa
Kung kaya mo na ang magbirthday ng wala ang pamilya
Kaya mo ng maging isang sundalo.
