MATAG LUBOT
by: Jeff Jassen O. Casinillo
Ako kay dakog lubot
Akong uyab kay dakog mata
Pareha ming duha walay buot
Kaming duha kay gwapo ug gwapa
Masuya jud mo sa among duha,
Kay among gugma ga uros-uros
Kami dakog lubot, dakog mata
Pero wala siyay plano maburos
Kay kami nga studyante pa!
Skwela para sa kaugma-on
Kay naa pamiy pangandoy duha
Siya jud akong higugma-on
Nakita nako niya ang tanan
Wala nay makalabaw kinsa man

MAY FOREVER
by: Jeff Jassen O. Casinillo
Sabi raw nila, merong forever
Paano nila masasabi yun,
Kung hindi kami together?
Hanggang tingin lang ba ako doon?
Hindi nga lang niya kayang tumingin,
Kahit nasa harapan nya ako
Bat di nya kayang tumingin sakin?
Syay Out of my league, yan ay totoo
Ngayon sya ay nakatingin sa akin
Nasa panaginip pa ba ako?
Klarong-klaro aking mga ngipin
Ngiti ko, walang makakatalo
At ngayon, kami na ay together
Aba! Meron talagang forever

WALLS
by: Jeff Jassen O. Casinillo
I remember watching you from afar,
Without the intent of observing you
And though you were not really that bizarre,
You just kept on appearing within my view
I never thought that we would get closer,
We talked, but I still had reservations
I had built walls and felt really bitter
Theres no love, its just made of illusions
Yet you just kept on climbing up my walls
Trying to reach for me and let me out
Saying, Loves not an illusion at all
You kept on showing me what its about
You have managed to tear my walls apart,
Now theres no one else, but you in my heart
