PIBBA Feature*: Tåsi, Tåsi


Tåsi, Tåsi
Håfa na campus geftao hao?
Tåsi, Tåsi
Kao ma’guf, osino tristi hao på’gu?

English translation:

Ocean, Ocean
Why are you so giving?
Ocean, Ocean
Are you happy or sad today?


*Note:  Sablan attended the PIBBA workshop titled, "A Pacific Spoonful of Thoughts on the Ocean" presented by Dr. Matilda Naputi Rivera.  Additional poems from the workshop will be featured here and may also be featured on the online Pacific anthologies, Guam Poets Club and Micronesian Poets Club.
