The time has come
And every now and then
Let us prepare our selves
For the chapter’s end
...
O aking ina,
Minamahal kita
Sa buhay ko
Ika'y higit pa
...
Ang hirap ng buhay dito
Pero balewala iyun sa akin
Malungkot ang kada araw dito
Kinakaya ko naman
...
How long will I wait for you?
I miss you so much
By this night,
I am here all alone
