Nang Umibig Si Boy Lapot


Nagkataon lang siguro na Buwan ng mga Puso kaya inspired sumulat si Boy Lapot. Dinalubhasa niya ang panitikang Pilipino pero sa hindi maipaliwanag na kadahilanan, ang kanyang komposisyon ay tinitik niya pa sa English. Maiba lang daw. In fact, tinuring niya itong oda na orihinal at bukal sa puso taliwas sa bintang ng iba na baduy at kinopya. Basahin nga natin kung baduy nga.

Ode to the Other Half of My Life.

The moment I stare in your eyes, I knew I was looking at the future.
 Probably, the next lines were written somewhere in books but I would call it original.
Strange, but you are so powerful that can make my heart beat faster and slower at the same time.
 I thank God that you were here.
 I thank God that I haven't look down to tie my shoes when you cross my way.
They say that people get tired of doing the same thing every day.
 But I will be the exemption.
 I will not get tired.
 Of telling how beautiful you are.
 Of how your smile makes my day.
 Of how delicious your dishes are.
 I will never get tired of saying "I Love You".

-Boy Lapot-

Pinaniwalaan na ang odang ito ay sinulat sa kaarawan na kanyang sinisinta. Sinasabi nila na ang babaeng ito ang naging sanhi ng pagkaromantiko ni Boy Lapot na sa kalaonan ay naging kabiyak niya.
Matapos basahin ang oda, napagdesisyonan nang general assembly sa barangay na hindi naman pala masyadong baduy. Slight lang daw.
