Tula ni Eufrosina Lerios
Biñan Client, Center 39
Delivered during Anniversary Celebration of Center 14, 200)
(Filipino Version)
I
Ikot dito, ikot don
Lakad dito, lakad don
Nagtatanong sa sarili
Saan pupunta
Sana tutungo
Saan matatagpuan
Ang kapayapaang hanap ng abang
Kaluluwa ko
II
Sa sikat ng araw naglalakad
Init ay di alintana
At sa pagpatak ng ulan
Sumasabay ang luhang sagana
At sa bawat hakbang
Mayroong katanungan
Kasaganaan, saan at kailan makikita
III
Sa aking paglalakad
Akoy mayrong nakita
Gintong butil na ang hatid ay gintong balita
Salamat Panginoon
Ang kapayaan at kasaganaan
Tunay at batid kong nasa mga pintuan na nga
IV
Gintong butil salamat sa iyo
Sa limang haligi na ipinaunawa mo
Sakripisyo, disiplina, sipag, tyaga at pagkakaisa
Ito ang gintong balita
Tunay ngayon ay unawa ko na
V
Isang determinasyon lang pala
Ang kailangan ko
Upang minimithing kasaganaan
Ay makamit ko
Determinisyon at sakripisyo
Ito ang kailangan ko
Upang makaahon
Sa kahirapang kinasasadlakan ko
VI
Gintong butil, maraming salamat sa iyo
Tagos sa sambayanan ang hangarin mo
Hangaring makaahon ng bawat Pilipino
Sa kahirapang walang sini-sino
Sa patnubay ng maykapal
Batid kong di ako mabibigo
VII
Dahil sa limang haligi na inyong nabuo
Limang haligi na siyang magiging tuntungan ko
Tuntungan upang minimithing kasaganaan at kapayaan ay makamit ko
VIII
Gintong butil na matatawag ko
Tulay sa Pag-unlad na kinabibilangan ko
Dahil sa hatid mong moral at economic recovery
Tunay kang hulug ng langit sa katulad ko
IX
Walang maigaganti sa inyong kabutihan
Maliban sa isang pangako
Gintong butil at gintong balita ay paka-iingatan ko
At sa tamang panahon at pagkakataon
Gintong butil at gintong balita ay isasabog ko rin
X
Di sapat ang salapi
Pasasalamat o papuri
Sa ating Branch Manager
At mga staff na mayroong ginintuang puso
Ang tangi naming maiaalay
Ay isang taos pusong panalangin
Na sanay pagpalain kayo
Ng Dyos na lumalang sa atin
A poem by TSPI Client Salicia Rena
(English Version)
I
First of all, please bear with me
For my poem comes as a prompt
In case we forget
The rules and regulations of TSPI
II
On October 9,1981, TSPI was set-up
Registered at SEC on October 20,1981
Mothers, bear in mind
Mr. Ruben de Lara, is its Executive Director
III
TSPI has four characteristics
It is owned by no one, non-stock it is
We are fortunate, it is also not- for- profit
A non-government organization, and thus not involved in politics
IV
This TSPI is admirable indeed
Its vision and mission, what beauty to behold
Great are the benefits it extends
That we borrowers must put value on
V
The member’s vow, we should uphold
Our duties to God, we must first seek
Surrender to Him all problems and trials
For our livelihood to grow and endure
VI
On its program TKP, five elements it has
First and foremost is the value of hard work
Discipline is second, to develop we must
Perseverance, solidarity and sacrifice
VII
I refer you to the nine program principles
Which I expect that you are aware of
And know too well
To keep them in mind is surely a must
VIII
The Center has two kinds of fund
One is the withdrawable Center fund
The other is the non-withdrawable Damayan fund
Providing life insurance benefit for every member
IX
There are other things I want to express
But time is not enough I guess
As your humble servant, I beseech
To always ponder good purpose in life
X
And as I end, it is my prayer
That all our businesses will meet success
Do not falter and be faithful with your duties
For TSPI’s trust to always be with us.
