Magtanim ay Di Biro
Magtanim ay di biro
Maghapong nakayuko
Di naman makatayo
Di naman makaupo
Bisig ko'y namamanhid
Baywang ko'y nangangawit.
Binti ko'y namimintig
Sa pagkababad sa tubig.
Kay-pagkasawing-palad
Ng inianak sa hirap,
Ang bisig kung di iunat,
Di kumita ng pilak.

Wangis mo'y bituin sa langit. You’re like a star in the sky

Larawan mo, Neneng, Your picture, Neneng,
Nagbigay pasakit. Ay! Makes one hurt. Oh!
Gising at magbangon Awake and arise
Sa pagkagupiling from slumber
Sa pagkakatulog from your sleep
Na lubhang mahimbing. So deep
Buksan ang bintana Open your window
At ako'y dungawin and look out to me
Nang mapagtanto mo So that you may understand
Ang tunay kong pagdaing. My true lament.

Lesson 1: Recognizing Structure
Riddles let you have a peek at the richness of Philippine culture. They are
witty and puzzling questions in which the answers are mostly objects, animals and
fruits found in the Philippines. They are a form of poetry because they rhyme.
Riddles are used for entertainment, mental exercises and amusement. They
are used by Filipinos to while the time away and to show their talent. Filipino riddles
deal largely with animals, plants and objects of local character. They have been
passed from one generation to another and their origins can never be traced.
Proverbs like riddles were also popular among the Filipinos. They use
proverbs to express lessons in life which they must learn by heart. They are
statements which are loaded with meanings. Just like riddles they are also a form of
poetry.
Filipinos are music lovers by nature. Since ancient times, folksongs have
been also used by Filipinos to express their aspirations, beliefs and ideals. They did
tasks while humming tunes or singing. They sang for any reason. They sang when
they’re happy. They sang when they’re sad. They sang when they’re inspired.
They sang when they faced difficulties. They even sang during battles!
Each riddle, proverb and folksong signifies worthwhile experiences our
forefathers wanted to share with us.

Lesson 2: Language Focus: Single-Word Adjectives
The clothes you wear, the people you know, and the place you live would be
dull topics of conversation if you had no adjectives to describe them. Adjectives
add life, color, and feeling to language. Understanding how adjectives work and how
to use them effectively can make your use of language more precise and interesting.
Adjectives are words that modify or describe nouns and pronouns. They tell
the size, shape, quality/kind and color (descriptive adjectives). They may also limit
the meaning of nouns and pronouns by quantifying and qualifying them (limiting
adjectives). The subject of the sentence as well as the objects of the verb and
prepositions may be expanded by using adjectives/adjective phrases.
Look at the following sentences.
1. Sweet songs lulled the little baby to sleep.
(Sweet modifies songs and little describes baby.)
2. Lovers are timid and mute.
11. 11
(Timid and mute modify/describe lovers.)
3. Then too soon the babies grow big and tall.
(Big and tall modify/describe lovers.)

Opened a kingdom to my eyes,
It was not love, it was not folly,
I have no name to call it by,
I only know one shining instant
You held my earth, you held my sky.

by Jose Rizal
(A Translation from the Spanish by Nick Joaquin)
Sweet hours in the native country,
where friendly shines the sun above!
Life is a breeze that sweeps the meadows;
Tranquil is death; most tender, love.
Warm kisses on the lips are playing
As we awake to mother’s face:
The arms are seeking to embrace her,
The eyes are smiling as they gaze.
How sweet to die for the native country,
where friendly shines the sun above!
Death is the breeze for him who has
No country, no mother, and no love!
