Lyrics
Nung 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 ay malaki ka na
Nais mo’y maging Malaya
Di man sila payag
Walang magagawa
Ikaw nga ay biglang nagbago
Nagging matigas ang iyong ulo
At ang payo nila’y
Sinuway mo
Di mo man lang inisip na ang kanilang ginagawa’y para sa yo
Pagka’t ang nais mo’y masunod
Ang layaw mo dimo sila pinapansin
Nagdaan pa ang mga araw
At ang landas mo’y maligaw
Ikaw ay nalulong
Sa masama bisyo
At ang una mong nilapitan
Ang iyong inang lumuluha
At ang tanong nila ANAK
Ba’t ka nagkaganyan?
At ang iyong mata’y biglang lumuha
Ng di mo napapasin
Pagsisisi at sa isip mo’t nalaman
Mong ika’y nagkamali
Lyrics translation
When you were born into this world
Your parent's delight
And their hand
Your light
And your mom and dad
Not to know what to do
Watching
Even sleep
And at night thy mother watched
Milk tea
And in the morning also thy son
Happy Father in you
Now that you are big
You want to be free
They're not willing
Nothing to do
You've changed everything
Nagging naughty
And their counsel was
You disobeyed
You don't even think they're doing for you
When you want to follow
You spoiled them being ignored
The days passed
And your path will go astray
You have been addicted
In bad temper
And the first you approached
Your weeping mother
And their child's question
Have you been there?
And your eyes suddenly wept
Of the unknown
Repentance and your mind and knowing
You made a mistake
