Mother Laybay calls and cries,

looking for her son who's gone

to the waterspirit's realm:

My dear son, my dearest boy,

think it over very well,

realize what you're doing now.

Please, do come back home again!

You know why I tell you this:

Mother you will be in despair,

going round in frantic mood!

Says the stubborn son to her:

Mother, oh my Mother dear,

I have thought it over well,

realizing what I do.

No matter how much you cry

and are shredding tears for me,

I will not come home again!

I enjoy it very much

roaming through the river-floods.

My first trip I undertook

to the Buri palm with seeds.

Now my second walk from home

to the steep forbidden rocks.

Better to leave me here behind.

I have died and I am dead!
