Albay Green Christmas (lyrics)

Madya sa samuya probinsiyang Albay

Karangahan mamamateang tunay

Makisumaro, maki-ogma sa pasko na kakaiba

Dolot kan samuyang....Banwaan

Sa pagkamundag kan kagurangnan

An berdeng kapalibutan, sa to gabos na kamawotan

Refrain:

Albay green christmas

(pagpadangat kan satong kapalibutan)

Albay green christmas

(respeto sa mundong ini erokan)

Albay green christmas

(kita gabos magtarabangan)

Albay green christmas

(pangataman satong kinaban)

Adlib

Sa ngonian na panahon

Logod satuyang maromdoman

An berdeng kapalibutan, satuya na kapangganahan

Iyo ini an barometro siring man an sukulan

Nin sarong communidad

Nagmamangno ki inang kalikasan

Repeat refrain 2x
