Sa ilalim daw ng tulay, may maririnig kang umiiyak na babaeโ€ฆ

Dugong umaagos mula sa kanyang ulo, mga grasang nakadikit sa kanyang mga palad, at ang kanyang mata, tenga, at bibig ay nakatali.

Ngunit kahit sa malayo, dinig mo ang kanyang sigaw.

"Sa ilalim ng tulay, may mga mata,
At alam nila ang iyong ginawa"

Hindi mo ba naririnig?
Kaharap mo na sโ€™ya.

โ€œKasinungalingan!โ€ ani ng isang Pilipino.
โ€œGawa-gawang kwento lang โ€˜yan.โ€
โ€œLilipas din โ€˜yang kwentong โ€˜yan.โ€

Ngunit sa bawat pagpatay-malisya ay dumarami ang pirma, na sโ€™yang paglaki ng perang nagiging bula't binubulsa. At habang humahaba ang pila ng naglalakad sa putik, ang kanyang sigaw ay unti-unting umaalingawngaw sa masa.

Hanggang sa isang gabi, sa gitna ng kulog at baha, bumigay ang tulay.

"Sa ilalim ng tulay, may mga mata.
Sa bawat pagnanakaw, may kapalit na kaluluwa."

Bawat putol na bakal at batong bumagsak, isang buhay ang nalilibing.

At ang babae sa ilalim ng tulay ay mananatiling umiiyak sa dilim.

Ang dugo sa kanyang ulo, alaala ng karumihan. Ang grasa sa kaniyang palad, mula sa mga nabalam na daan. At ang kaniyang mata, tenga, at bibig, nakatali upang siyaโ€™y patahimikin.

Ngunit patuloy pa rin ang pagsigaw.

"Sa ilalim ng tulay, may mga mata.
Oh Pilipino, Nakikita mo na ba?"

Hindi mo pa rin ba naririnig?
kaharap mo na sโ€™ya.
