    Poetry == balak

    Old Cebuano balak:

    "Ang panaghigalaay nga nalubong sa tunaan sa kalimot
    Kuykuyon gihapon sa hinagiban sa paghinumdom
    Aron mubidlisiw ang mga nagkayamukat nga pagbati."

    As translated to English:

    "Friendship buried in the mire of forgetfulness
    Reborn in the wellspring of remembrance
    And all confused emotions vanish, like the setting sun."

    Beautiful.

    i'm just hooked that's all.

    the most extensive library for cebuano materials was in Uni, i only visited a few times when we were told to research something for a class.

    most of the times there is no material. I like to read it and wonder what it means... and it's supposed to be my first language!!! :S

    Re: Poetry == balak

    So that out Dutch friends can understand, I have used Altavista to translate Martin's statement into Dutch.

    Aangezien dit een Engelstalig forum is hebben wij besloten dat alle
    posten in deze draad en anderen zouden moeten zijn in het Engels zodat iedereen hen kan lezen.
    Of course according to the rules we must post in English so I have translated the Dutch back to English

    Since this is an anglophone forum let us have we decided that all
    mails in this wire and others be would have in English so that
    everyone can read them.

    Is it OK to post something in non-English and just provide translation?
