The answer is that the author used the word willow to portray two different meanings by using the techniques of metaphor and personification.
- ''An old <u>willow</u> with hollow branches slowly swayed his few high tendrils and sang(...) >> Here the author used the technique of personification in order to explain that the branches performed the human action of dancing.
- ''Love is a young green <u>willow</u> (...)'' >> Here the author used the technique of metaphor to compare love to a green willow (Willows are associated with spirituality and the ability to bend without snapping, a methaphor that is commonly used in Celtic culture to teach that we must adjust to the situation/feeling instead of fighting against it)
Hope this helps!

If you are referring to the two names that Philiphines already had, these names were Las islas Filipinas and Pearl of the Orient Seas.
