Nong isilang ka sa mundong ito laking tuwa ng magulang mo At ang kamay nila ang iyong ilaw At ang nanay at tatay mo'y di malaman ang gagawin Minamasdan pati pagtulog mo. At sa gabi'y napupuyat ang iyong nanay sa pagtimpla ng gatas mo At sa umaga nama'y kalong ka ng iyong amang tuwang-tuwa sa 'yo. Ngayon nga'y malaki ka na ang nais mo'y maging malaya Di man sila payag walang magagawa Ikaw nga'y biglang nagbago naging matigas ang iyong ulo At ang payo nila'y sinuway mo. Di mo man lang inisip na ang kanilang ginagawa'y para sa 'yo Pagkat ang nais mo'y masunod ang layaw mo, di mo sila pinapansin. Nagdaan pa ang mga araw at ang landas mo'y naligaw Ikaw ay nalulong sa masamang bisyo At ang una mong nilapitan ang 'yong inang lumuluha At ang tanong, 'Anak, ba't ka nagkaganyan?' At ang iyong mga mata'y biglang lumuha ng di mo napapansin Pagsisisi ang sa isip mo't nalaman mong ika'y nagkamali Pagsisisi ang sa isip mo't nalaman mong ika'y nagkamali Pagsisisi ang sa isip mo't nalaman mong | |

When you were born into this world your parents were very happy And their hands were your guide And your mother and father didn't know what else to do They watch you even while you sleep. All night your mother stays awake just to prepare your milk And in the morning your father is happy while he plays with you on his lap Now that you have grown older, what you wanted was to be free Even if they disagree, they can't do anything Soon they began to change, you became stubborn And you failed to heed their advice You did not even think that what they are doing is all for you And because you wanted to follow what you want, you ignored them A few more years have passed and you lost your way You found yourself with many vices And the first person you approached was your crying mother And she asked, 'My child, why did this happen to you?' And your eyes began to form tears without you noticing it Your thoughts were full of regrets, you realized that you were wrong Your thoughts were full of regrets, you made a mistake Your thoughts were full of regrets Credits Song: Pinoy pop Composer: Freddie Aguilar Singer: Cydel Gabutero Animation: Courtesy of Rhadzjan Ruve Ty Tagalog transcription and English translation: genius.com | |
