Though It Is Stormy And Dark

May Bagyo Ma't May Rilim

An Unknown Tagalog

Though it is stormy and dark,I'll strain my tearfull plaintsand struggle on-I'll set out on a voyageand persist in my searchfor God our Father.

Though it doesn't sleep a wink,This temptation bearing down on me,Still will I dareTo read this book,And from it,drawThe weapon I'll weild.

Having lost my sight in the past,I'm giving thanksFor this lightWhich God let shineUpon the priest who has made knownThis noble book.

Though tossed and dashedBy huge waves,I'll trash my legsAnd renew my strength-In this(book)will I graspFor the buoy that saves.

Though disabled and limping,Nothing can hold back my steps,For this(book)will take me by the handAnd show me the way-The staff was preparedTo give me strength.
