Ode to a Chicken Bouillon (in Tagalog)

Ako ay manok panimpla
Kuwadrado
Di makilos
Pampalasa
Binalot sa palara
Tinakpan sa garapon
Maaring sabaw
Sa iba ay sabaw sa gulay
Sa iba ay sabaw sa lamang dagat
Ako ay para sa sopas
Sa tubig ako ay malaya

Translated from English to Talalog by Joseph Bulos and
Tres Agdinaoay


I am a chicken bouillon
Square
Unmoving
A flavored crouton
Wrapped in tin foil
Sealed in a jar
Soup potential
Some people are minestrone
Some people are chowder
I am broth to be
Give me water and set me free
