Pamulinawen, pusok indengam man
Toy umas-asug agrayod'ta sadiam.
Panunotem man inka pagintutulngan
Toy agayat, agukkoy dita sadiam.

Essem nga diak malipatan ta nasudi unay a nagan,
Uray sadin ti ayan, lugar sadino man,
Aw-awagan di agsarday, ta naganmo kasam-itan.
No malagipka, pusok ti mabang-aran.

Adu a sabsabong, narway a rosrosas
Ti adda't ditoy a di nga mabuybuya,
Ngem awan man laeng ti pakaliwliwaan
No di dayta sudim ken kapintas.

Aywen, biagko, indengam man.
Iyasasokko nga inaldaw
Ta diak to a kayat ti sabali nga imnas
Sika laeng, o, biagko, ita ken uray tanemman
No malagipka, pusok ti mabang-aran.

Dakay nga ububbing, didakam' tultuladen
Ta dakkel kamin nga agiinnarem
Ta ituloyyo ta panagadalyo
Tapno inkay magun-od kakaligumanyo

Essem nga diak malipatan, ta nasudi unay a nagan,
Uray sadin ti ayan, lugar sadino man,
Aw-awagan di agsarday ta naganmo kasam-itan.
No malagipka, pusok ti mabang-aran.

Pamulinawen, please do not be upset,
That was just a joke
It won't happen again,
Have faith, my Darling.

If you are still angry,
Punish me completely
And you will expect
That I won't feel bad.

My love is real
And not merely a joke
My heart's with you
Have no doubt.

And if that is still not enough
I offer you my life
That is proof
Of my utter love.

If you are still angry,
Punish me completely
And you will expect
That I won't feel bad.
