At the bus station in Kota Raya

Here at the bus stop going to Kota Raya
the colors of the skin of the people are many
if your diaper is borrowed
others may mistake it as theirs along the way.
================================

D inhi sa Bus Stop padung sa Kota Raya
Ang bulok sa panit sa mga tawo daghan
Kung ang imong sapin hinulaman baya
Basin sa dalan ikaw pagahubuan.
