Tulala
Sa bintana
Na wari’y
May inaantay
O iniisip
Pero
Ang syang tunay
Wala lang
Magawa
Tulala
Sa bintana
Na wari’y
May inaantay
O iniisip
Pero
Ang syang tunay
Wala lang
Magawa
On top of the mountain
She was amazed
On how she reached
The peak
She realised on
How strong she was
Beyond struggles
In climbing up
Just to see
The beauty of nature
And how far
She is now
For the happiness
She’s looking
So long
Kay gandang pagmasdan
Ang paglubog ng araw
Sa karagatan
Habang apak na naglalakad
Sa buhanginan
Nagbibigay pag-asa
Na may darating na umaga
Upang mangisda
At lumanghap
Nang hanging sariwa
Your smiles then,
only a frown now
When I asked,
but you just nod
And something that pop out
For me to realise it’s all about
A hint that you always give me
Whenever I receive a message
That all lies and stories are true
If only I knew..
The weather in our favorite place
Seems changing with a faster pace
Beauty in nature has gone
Hotpot become cold one
Travel in five hours
Take it longer
Like the love
As gone
Bye
Maligayang Kaarawan
Sa’yo aking kaibigan
Nawa’y maging masaya ka
At magkaron ng maraming biyaya
Ngunit huwag mong kalimutan
Kami ay nandito lamang
Mga tunay mong kaibigan
Na handa kang tulungan
Sa oras ng kagipitan
