My Funny Brown Pinay
Charmaine Clamor

Take a look at my skin

It's brown.

Take a look at my nose.

It's flat.

This is for all my sisters growing up thinking they don't look right, 'cause

they ain't white, scrubbing with papaya soap

to make it light...I think you're out of sight. You are beautiful.

Maganda ka (You are beautiful).

Ikaw ay Indio (You are an Indio)

Ikaw ay Pilipino (You are Pilipino).

You're my funny brown Pinay

Sweet comic brown Pinay

You make me smile

With your heart

Yours looks they say are laughable

Unphotographable

Yet you're my favorite work of art

Is your figure less than greek

Is your mouth a little weak

When you open it to speak

Are you smart

Don't change your hair for me

Not if you care for me

Stay my funny brown Pinay

Stay

Each day we celebrate our way



In 1521 Magellan claimed us for the King of Spain. For 500 years we were conquered. Tayo ay naging kanilang pag-aari ng limang daang taon. (We were conquered for 500 years). Ng limang daang taon (for 500 years).

Dito nagsimula ang ating paniniwala na kinakailangan nating maging tulad

ng mestiza at mestizo. (This started the belief that we needed to look like

mestizas and mestizos). I was once a victim of this illusion.

Naging biktima rin ako nito (I was once a victim of this illusion).

Nung ako ay maliita pa pilit kong binubura ang aking kayumangging balat

ng kung anu-anong krema o sabon. (When I was young I tried every cream

and soap to erase/lighten my brown skin).

Pango kong ilong, pinagtatawanan (They laugh at my flat nose)

Kinamumuhian (hated it).

Ngunit hindi na ngayon (But not anymore).

Ako ay kayumanggi (I am brown),

taas noo (proud)

Pilipino


Don't change your hair for me

Not if you care for me

Stay my funny brown Pinay

Stay

Each day we celebrate our way

Pinay!
