the two meters are combined
or there is constant change
from one meter to the other
back and both

Ako kini si Angi,
Ang opisyo ko'y panahi;
Adlaw ug gabii
Kanunay ako nagtahi.

Wala'y kuwartang

Kayang akong pagpanahi
Igora's panginabuhi.
Angi is my name
Dressmaking is my trade
All day long till evening
My poor hands are always

Not a penny can I save
Alas, I can earn only
Just enough for food and
rent
