Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Bakit puso ko'y biglang kumaba
Noong una pang nakita siya
Hindi mapakali hindi makahinga
Siya na ba siya na nga kaya

Malayo man siya sa 'kin ngayon
Darating din ang tamang panahon
Mundo para sa aming dalawa
Siya na nga sana siya na nga

Bakit ba ganito ang lukso ng puso
Ano na nga kaya ito
Kabang nakakalito

Puso ay pakinggan
Siya ang nilalaman
Siya na nga kaya
Sana siya na nga

Saang dagat man ako mapunta
Kung bakit ikaw ang nakikita
Kapit sa damdamin gustong isigaw
Na ang hanap ng puso ko'y ikaw

Bakit ba ganito ang lukso ng puso
Ano na nga kaya ito
Kabang nakakalito

Puso ay pakinggan
Siya ang nilalaman




Siya na nga kaya
Sana siya na nga

Overall Meaning

The Tagalog lyrics of this song express the feeling of falling in love at first sight, the inner turmoil of not being able to understand this powerful emotion, and the hope that the person one has fallen in love with might be the one they have been looking for all their life. The singer's heartbeat quickens as she sees the person for the first time, and she can't catch her breath, wondering if this is "the one." Even though they are physically apart now, she believes that the right time will come for them to be together. The chorus speaks to the confusion and mixed emotions that come with falling in love: "Why does my heart beat so fast? What is happening? It's so confusing. Listen to my heart. Is it really him? Is he the one I've been waiting for?"


The second verse talks about the longing for this person, how they seem to appear everywhere the singer goes, and how she wants to shout to the world that he is what her heart desires. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the strong emotions that come with love.


John Williams's musical arrangement of this song features a sweeping orchestral score that evokes the grandeur and passion of the lyrics. The Recording Arts Orchestra of Los Angeles provides a lush accompaniment that amplifies the emotional intensity of the vocals. The song's melody is simple yet memorable, with a soaring chorus that is easy to sing along to.

“Without John Williams, bikes don’t really fly, nor do brooms in Quidditch matches; nor do men in red capes. There is no Force. Dinosaurs don’t walk the Earth … You take our movies, many of them about our most impossible dreams, and through your musical genius, you make them real and everlasting for billions and billions of people.”
Steven Spielberg
