saan nangagkulang magsasaka nitong inang bayan?
hindi pa ako isinisilang iyan na ang madalas na katanungan
na magpahangga ngayon ay wala pang tamang kasagutan.
lupain ay hindi lumalaki papulasyon ay dumarami kaya kinukulang
gintong butil na ani.
gobyerno'y huwag sisihin dahil ikaw ang pumili nito. kapwa mo ay ikaw rin kaya hindi dapat pagawayan sa kung sino maysala.
hanggang ang kadena sa pagkakaisa ay putol-putol at ang mga punto laman mensahe sa mga tula ay nilumot na, hindi tayo makakaahon.
ang kailangan ngayon ay hindi lupang mabubungkal o dagdag na ektaryang aararuhin ng matanda ng kalabaw at hikain.
ang kailangan natin ay hindi bala o bomba. at hindi rin lupa.
pinagsumikapan mapagtapos mga anak hindi para bumalik sa lupa. Ang kailangan ay trabaho…trabaho at trabaho na may desenteng suweldo.
the farmers was freed from the bondage of tenancy but never from the bondage of the soil he tills. it makes my heart cries, tears flowing from my eyes. what can i do, what can you do to escape from this prison.
no, i will not escape from this prison for it will make me only hide from my sorrows and failures. i will try to earn the gate of freedom by satisfying my needs and setting away my wants.
i will not buy pepsi or coke or whatever drinks. Multi-global companies does not reinvest back enough profits to accelerate the progress of our country. i will drink water to quinch my thirst. Water is better for our health to avoid kidney ailments or urinary tract infection. will not visit jollibee or mcdonald to eat fried chicken or french fries. i will raised my on fried chicken and camote fries. lots of things to be done to earn my freedom. I am a farmer, I will raise my foods for my family.
to earn our freedom from the bondage of the soil, we don't need bullets explosives or another piece of land to till. what we need and what we want is decent job that gives decent salaries.
So then, my beloved son and daughter will not go back to till the land. Let me till the land. I am a farmer
and is always happy to raise the golden grain, but no longer with the carabao.
