Go placidly amid the noise and haste and remember
To leave a 3 peso coin to a news paper boy
As far as possible without hesitations
Take the road of Santolan,, Ortigas or Shaw
Speak what you want peacefully and clearly
And listen to others
Even the banners and yellow ribbons
They too have their own story.
If you compare yourself with others,
You are a true Filipino;
For always you are much greater than the others.
Enjoy all your choice as well as your plans
Keep focus in your fight, however humble,
it is what you are fighting for
Be the voice of the people,
Especially do not try to let them down.
Neither be selfish about your choice,
For in the face of everybody it is pre-eminent as diamonds.
Take kindly the counsel of years to the nearest priest around the corner.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune
But do not distress yourself with expectation and illusion
Many trials are born with achievement and happiness
Beyond a hard time discipline, be victorious. You are a child of the Philippines, No less than the rich and the poor and whether or not it is clear to you. No doubt democracy is emerging, as it should.
With all the hunger, hardship and pain
“You are worth dying for”
Be glad. Strive to be a good citizen.
