Nang humangi’y yumuko;
Nguni’t muling tumayo
Nagkabunga ng ginto

Putol-putol na ugat,
Sa dibdib nitong gubat,
Ay nakikipag-usap,
Sa nag-iwi ng tabak.

Mataas sa pag-upo,
Mababa ‘pag tumayo.
Kaibigan kong ginto,
Karamay at kalaro.
EXAMPLE:
Matanda na ang nuno,
Hindi pa naliligo.

Tinik ang sinusuyo.

Ang katoto kapag tunay
hindi ngiti ang pag-alay
kundi isang katapatan
ng mataus na pagdamay.
