AKOY POBRENG ALINDAHAW, SA HUYOHOY GIANUD-ANUD
( I am a miserable dragonfly, gliding on a friendly breeze)

NANGITA UG KAPANIBAAN, AHAY!!! SA... TA...NAMAN, SA MGA KABULAKAN
(Searching for nectar to suck ...      sigh (ahay)...       among the plants,     among the flowers.)

ARUY, ARUY, ARUY, ARUY, ARUY... ...ARUY, ARUY, ARUY, ARUY, ARUY.   (a hurting sound)
aruy     aruy   aruy     aruy   aruy                  aruy    aruy      aruy    aruy    aruy

ANIA SI BULAK SA MGA KAHIDLAW.
(Here's the flower of quenching the thirsty cravings)                                                                      

ARUY, ARUY, ARUY, ARUY, ARUY...         ARUY, ARUY, ARUY, ARUY, ARUY...( a hurting sound)
aruy     aruy     aruy     aruy     aruy                    aruy     aruy     aruy     aruy     aruy

DI KA BA MALOOY, NING POBRENG ALINDAHAW.
(Don't you have compassion, on this miserable dragonfly.)
