Winglica-Aerandria would like to bid fond farewell to a woman of great gentleness and leadership, to a woman who became the beacon of hope and mother to a weakening nation.
We salute to her not as the Former Head of State but as the strong individual who led a peaceful revolution and continued to be a loyal guardian who watched over the Filipinos. She IS the mother of democracy.
If you want to know the lyrics (with english translation) please read below.
‘Di na ‘ko papayag mawala ka muli. (I won’t allow losing you again)
‘Di na ‘ko papayag na muli mabawi, (I won’t allow them to take it back)
Ating kalayaan kay tagal natin mithi. (Our freedom which we have been longing)
‘Di na papayagang mabawi muli. (I won’t allow them to take you back)
Magkakapit-bisig libo-libong tao. (connected arms, thousands of people)
Kay sarap palang maging Pilipino. (How sweet it is to be Filipino)
Sama-sama iisa ang adhikain. (All together, one intention)
Kelan man ‘di na paalipin. (Never again will be enslaved)
Ref:
Handog ng Pilipino sa mundo, (Gift of Filipinos to the world)
Mapayapang paraang pagbabago. (Peaceful means of change)
Katotohanan, kalayaan, katarungan (Truth, freedom, justice)
Ay kayang makamit na walang dahas.(Can be achieved without violence)
Basta’t magkaisa tayong lahat. (Let’s just all be united)
Masdan ang nagaganap sa aming bayan. (Observe what’s happening in our country)
Magkasama ang mahirap at mayaman. (The rich and poor are together)
Kapit-bisig madre, pari, at sundalo. (Connected arms nuns, priests and soldiers)
Naging Langit itong bahagi ng mundo. (This part of the earth became heaven)
Huwag muling payagang umiral ang dilim. (Do not permit darkness to reign again)
Tinig ng bawat tao’y bigyan ng pansin. (Pay attention to the voices of the people)
Magkakapatid lahat sa Panginoon. (We are all siblings in God)
Ito’y lagi nating tatandaan. (We should always remember this)
Coda:
Mapayapang paraang pagbabago.
Katotohanan, kalayaan, katarungan.
Ay kayang makamit na walang dahas.
Basta’t magkaisa tayong lahat!
