Day 32: Bitin! (Not Enough!)

Nagsimula ang torneyong pinagkahihintay-hintay,
The most awaited tourney started,
Lahat sami'y dumalo, walang sumablay;
All in our team came, all attended;
Alas tres ang simula, kami'y dumating,
It started at 3pm, not a minute later,
Lahat ay tuwang-tuwa, baguhan man o magaling.
Everyone's excited, hustler or beginner.

Ngunit iisa lamang ang bawat laro,
But there is only one game for each player,
Yan ang problema, magiinit lang ako;
That's where the problem lies, I'll just fire up later;
Pero walang susunod na larong gusto ko,
But no game will ever be set for the same bowlers,
Dahil ang maglalaro ay ang susunod na grupo.
Because the next batch will be next to be strikers.

I'm trying to write the same poem in the vernacular (Tagalog) but which also will rhyme with each other...at the same time translating what the Tagalog lines mean in English.
