Nagiging posible ang tila imposible sa sama-samang pagkilos ng iba’t ibang sektor para sa kapakanan ng nakararami. Naging posible ang imposible sa EDSA 40 years ago, nang matapos ang 20-year na one-man rule, at naibalik ang mga institusyon ng demokrasya tulad ng Senado at ng malayang pamamahayag. Naging posible rin ang tila imposible noong halalan ng nakaraang taon, nang lumundag ang ating ranking mula 17 hanggang 5 at napasama sa winning circle.
Sa awa ng Diyos at sa kilos ng tao, nangyari ang lahat ng ito at marami pang iba.
Sa awa ng Diyos at sa kilos ng tao, tataas ang kita ng mga magsasaka at mangingisda, at bababa ang presyo ng mga bilihin. Mananagot ang mga smuggler, hoarder, at mga kasabwat sa burukrasya.
Magiging posible rin na mawakasan ang nepotismo sa pulitika, at mapapanagot at makukulong na ang mga kurakot.
Magiging posible ang tila imposible sa sama-samang pagkilos ng iba’t ibang sektor para sa kapakanan ng pinakaaba at pinakamaliliit sa ating lipunan.

What once seemed impossible becomes possible through the collective action of various sectors working for the common good. The impossible became possible in EDSA 40 years ago, when the 20-year one-man rule ended and returned the institutions of democracy like the Senate and free press. The impossible also became possible in last year’s election, when our ranking rose from 17 to 5 and we entered the winning circle..
By the grace of God and the work of man, all these and more happened.
By the grace of God and the work of man, the income of farmers and fishers will rise, and the food prices will fall. Smugglers, hoarders, and their accomplices in the bureaucracy will be accountable.
Ending nepotism in politics will likewise become possible, and the corrupt will be held to account and will be put in jail.
The impossible will once again become possible through the collective action of various sectors, for the sake of the least and the most vulnerable.
