Ang Kambal
In Tagalog, French and English
ang kambal
mabuti pa ang
tunay na bulag
tunay na bingi
nakakakita
nakakarinig
nguni’t
ang tunay na nakakakita
at ang tunay na nakakarinig
nag bubulag bulagan
nag bibingi bingian
***
les jumeaux
c’est bien que
ceux qui sont vraiment aveugles
ceux qui sont de vrais sourds
voient tous
entendent tous
pourtant
ceux qui voient vraiment
ceux qui peuvent entendre
se conduisent comme des aveugles
prétendent ne pas entendre
***
The Twins
How wonderful it is
That those who are blind
And those who are deaf
See everything clearly
And hear with clarity
Yet it is a wonder
That those with eyes that see
And those who can really hear
Are really the blind ones
And those unable to hear
