Bugan/Bugan inBulul

The First Woman, She
Her Daughter to the
earth low,
insisting gently
people made must be
to grow.
Daughter and son see,
free divinity
we know.

Because Her son, he
suffered so sadly
such woe,
She heals the body
and makes things, fungi,
rainbow,
birds, shells, worms, many,
much prosperity,
rice flow.
