The chants of remembrance uttered through your lips outdo the rooster's crow that heralds the dawn.
You cannot be defeated by the sun as you fulfill God's command to illuminate life.
The dark sky, soon to transform into morning, always faithfully witnesses the beginning of your days heading to the blue campus.

Words of praise from lecturers are surely directed at you
when your friends enter class past seven o'clock.
You become a mirror that makes lecturers tell your friends to improve their ways.
I know they envy you because I can hear their conversations.

Though you are not a perfect human, you never envy your perfect friends.
I know this because you once said, “Every human has strengths and weaknesses, so every human must be grateful for what God has given.”
Your imperfect body does not obscure your desire to be a perfect human in God's eyes.

Ah, you are indeed a conqueror of life.
I know everything about you.
You always take me with you in every second of your journey.
I am always faithful in accompanying you.
My two wheels have never once defied your will.
I am grateful to be given the chance to live with you, even though your eardrums have never and will never be able to catch the waves of my voice.
