Sining

A few years from now, you'll be brought into the world by your mother And the first thing that I'll do is to give thanks unto the Father I'll learn every bit of you at first sight by heart On how you were formed and molded

You have a beautiful name, Sining Just by your name, I know you're worth loving If you grow up and ask me why we chose that name I'll always tell you that you are a galaxy

You'll be confused. It's complicated. You won't understand. And this is not about your gender You'll get different opinions in every place that you'll go But you'll not accept it right away You're a human that won't be controlled by the world, Sining. You'll always be the color that won't fade even in the darkest place

And if you won't be good in any field that is anchored in your name Remember that excellence is not all this world needs But a person who knows how to listen and learn when he doesn't know a thing

Sining is a Filipino word for Art.
