English version
by Amor C. de Jesus
Caca made her farewell, they already fetched her,
To that solid new home as her destination,
A house so beautiful, it fits her very well,
As a gift from heaven, for her to stay and pray.
As her life in this world, she has that experience,
Life is full of hardship and also much patience,
But she did not mind it and accepted it all,
And she had no regrets, and nobody to blame.
To father and mother, with so much love and care,
She shows fidelity, true love so pure to her,
And so with her siblings, she is the kind keeper,
To her nephews/nieces, she took good care of them.
And during lenten seasons, I remember so well,
With her beautiful voice, which I really enjoyed,
Reads and chant the Passion, with so much devotions,
And singing the high notes, so much pleasure to all.
And, we her own cousins, she treats us so kindly,
She shows no such envy, hatred, ire or anger,
Every time she sees you, she meets you with a smile,
Even on her last money, she gives it so gladly.
And so Cacang Angging, we will not forget you,
Deep here in our hearts, there is a place for you,
As you go to travel, to that far distant place,
The peace that you deserve, forever be with you.
All of us pass this world, there is no other way,
Like a pearl of teardrop, that flows on your breast,
Similar to a leaf, dries, detaches and falls,
Then it goes to the ground, before making its way...
TO HEAVEN.
