Nang gatas ay umapawMula dibdib ni Bugan
May tumubong halamanSa lupang dating tigang
Ibinaon ni WiganItong uhay ng buhay
Hanggang kanyang tanimanAy naging isang payaw
Umaning walang hoyangNang Bul-ul (Bulul) dinasalan
Ngunit nakaligtaanItong si Kabunian.
Kaya sila nag-cañaoAt natutong mamigay
Upang mabiyayaanHindi lang ang Ifugao
