Explanation:
The song "Pipit" is a popular Filipino song by Levi Celerio. The songs simply convey the nationalistic sentiments and how life should be cherished. In this song, a bird got its wing injured by a rock thrown by a man. It was so painful that the poor bird was unable to fly and fell from the tree. Before the bird hit the ground, it expressed its sadness that another bird will be pitiful and that the man was too cruel for taking an innocent living being's life. Using the psychological concept of poetry analysis, a situation reflects the life of a person where while he is still alive, his neighbor continues to hurt him, but when it passes away, when it is too late, will only grieve and cry for the fellow who hurt.
