"panalangin"

i've always, always loved this song..its a perfect way for serenade. Its simple, and honest way of saying things.

orginal version by "apo hiking society"
new version by Moonstar88

Panalangin ko sa habang buhay
Makapiling ka Makasama ka
Yan ang panalangin ko

At hindi papayag ang pusong ito
Mawala ka sa 'king piling
Mahal ko iyong dinggin

Wala nang iba pang mas mahalaga
Sa tamis na dulot ng pag-ibig natin dal'wa
At sana nama'y makikinig ka
Kapag aking sabihing minamahal kita

Panalangin ko sa habang buhay
Makapiling ka Makasama ka
Yan ang panalangin ko

At hindi papayag ang pusong ito
Mawala ka sa 'king piling
Mahal ko iyong dinggin

Wala nang iba pang mas mahalaga
Sa tamis na dulot ng pag-ibig natin dal'wa
At sana nama'y makikinig ka
Kapag aking sabihing minamahal kita

Panalangin ko sa habang buhay
Makapiling ka Makasama ka
Yan ang panalangin ko

At hindi papayag ang pusong ito
Mawala ka sa 'king piling
Mahal ko iyong dinggin

Panalangin ko sa habang buhay
Makapiling ka Makasama ka
Yan ang panalangin ko

At hindi papayag ang pusong ito
Mawala ka sa 'king piling
Mahal ko iyong dinggin

Panalangin ko sa habang buhay
Makapiling ka Makasama ka
Yan ang panalangin ko

I grew up with this orginal filipino old pop seventies era three man band, Apo Hiking society. My parents used to play their original hits around the house and as a young curious girl, it got into me as i grew older. Their songs are the perfect serenade music in tagalog words..and if u translate them in english, it makes lovers swoon. I mean if there are simply love songs i would sing to a guy i love most, i mean its their songs. The lyrics in tagalog are so honest and are so simple, like if u like someone, then just say it directly. i think lovesongs should be like that, no more BS or stupid things, but just honest stuff. Now this year, most of my fave local bands got together to sing all their songs in their own versions, its such nice stuff. my fave bands like orange and lemons, sang "yakap sa dilim" (means "hugging in the dark")..moonstar88's "panalangin", barbie almabis' "when i met u", shamrock's "paano"..and other cool bands. I bought the album, and its so sweet. its nice to feel "inlove" once in a while.
