30.5 Pagbabasa - Ang Libing 30.5 Reading - The Funeral

Daan-daang libong tao ang dumalo ng kanilang libing. Hundreds of thousands of people attended their funeral. Hindi mahulugangkarayon ang martsa. The march will not be meaningful. Labindalawang oras silang naglakad para ihatid sa sementeryo ang dalawang lalaking namatay, at makiramay sa kanilang mga pamilya. They walked twelve hours to take the two men who died to the cemetery, and to express their condolences to their families. Malungkot na malungkot ang lahat at may mga umiiyak; mukhang Biyernes Santo ang mga mukha. Everyone is sad and sad and some are crying; faces look like Good Friday. Marami rin ang galit na galit dahil sa nangyari. Many are also very angry because of what happened.
