Ang pag-uugali na taglay ni Cain’

Sa Banal na Aklat binigyan ng diin;

Marami sa ngayon, ang gawi’y gayun din,

Hangarin sa buhay, lahat ay maangkin!

-o0o-

Bukod sa salapi, ibang kayamanan,

at pagka-sugapa sa kapangyarihan;

Asal nang laganap sa maraming bayan,

Hindi lang sa bansa na ating nilisan!

-o0o-

Nagbigay ng diin ay ang Santo Papa,

Ang dulot ng imbot sa Mundo ay dusa;

Kasakimang lungkot ang ipamamana,

Sa buhay ng madlang hangad ay ginhawa!

-o0o-

Karagdagang dasal na lubhang taimtim,

Parusang mabigat ang dapat sa sakim!
