Daisy
Bert Dominic Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Kumpare ko ay mahilig manligaw ng bata
Ayaw niya raw sa matanda lalo na kung amo'y lupa
Nariyan si Tessie si Betty si Dolly at Rosy
Lahat sila ay mga bagets at si kumpare naman'y forgets

Sa dami ng chicks niya
Lahat sila ay puro sexy at magaganda
Walang itulak kabigin

Lahat ay tipong beauty queen

Ngunit wala sila kay kumpare
Maging si Lorna Aida at si Fe
Nawawala siya sa sarili
Kapag kausap si daisy

Daisy-sais daisy-siete
Daisy-otso daisy nuebe
Kahit na sino pang daisy
Basta't daisy ang gusto ni kumpare

Kumpare ko'y talagang na-inlove na kay daisy
Lahat daw ay ibibigay ibigin lang siya ni daisy
Kaya siya ay nagregalo ng lupa at bahay
Appliances na hulugan kasama pa ang brand new car

Ngunit anong saklap ang nangyari
Si kumpare ay biglang na onse
Pagkat ito palang si daisy
Sumama sa ibang lalaki

Kaya hayan ngayon si kumpare
Laging naghahanap gabi-gabi
Baka muli siyang makakita
Ng bago na naming daisy

Daisy-sais daisy-siete
Daisy-otso daisy nuebe

Kahit na sino pang daisy
Basta't daisy ang gusto ni kumpare

Overall Meaning

The song Daisy by Bert Dominic tells the story of a man, referred to as kumpare, who is known for being fond of younger women and avoiding older women, especially if they come from humble backgrounds. He has a long list of young and beautiful women, such as Tessie, Betty, Dolly, and Rosy, all of whom are like beauty queens, but none of them can compare to Daisy, whom he seems to have fallen in love with. Daisy is the woman kumpare wants, and nothing else matters. Kumpare goes to great lengths to impress Daisy, even showering her with gifts like land, a house, appliances, and a brand new car, hoping to win her affection. Sadly, Daisy eventually leaves him for another man, breaking his heart and leaving him to search endlessly for another daisy.

On the one hand, the lyrics reveal a man's obsession with beauty and youth, as he seems to be driven by these qualities alone when searching for a partner. He is superficial and may only be interested in a woman's appearance. On the other hand, the song portrays the painful consequences of putting your whole heart into someone who may not be deserving of it. Kumpare's love for Daisy was so strong that he was willing to give up everything just to win her over, but this turned out to be for nothing.

Overall, the song Daisy shows how love can make a person lose their sense of reason and judgment, and how it is vital to choose someone who will reciprocate our feelings and treat us with the love and respect we deserve.

Kumpare ko ay mahilig manligaw ng bata
My friend loves to court younger women

Ayaw niya raw sa matanda lalo na kung amo'y lupa
He dislikes older women, especially those who are landowners

Nariyan si Tessie si Betty si Dolly at Rosy
There's Tessie, Betty, Dolly, and Rosy

Lahat sila ay mga bagets at si kumpare naman'y forgets
They're all young ladies and my friend easily forgets them

Sa dami ng chicks niya
With the number of girls he courts

Lahat sila ay puro sexy at magaganda
They're all very attractive and sexy

Walang itulak kabigin
None to push away

Lahat ay tipong beauty queen
All look like beauty queens

Ngunit wala sila kay kumpare
But none of them compares to my friend's favorite

Maging si Lorna Aida at si Fe
Even Lorna, Aida, and Fe

Nawawala siya sa sarili
He loses himself

Kapag kausap si daisy
Whenever he talks to Daisy

Daisy-sais daisy-siete
Daisy six, Daisy seven

Daisy-otso daisy nuebe
Daisy eight, Daisy nine

Kahit na sino pang daisy
No matter who the other Daisy is

Basta't daisy ang gusto ni kumpare
As long as it's Daisy, my friend wants her

Kumpare ko'y talagang na-inlove na kay daisy
My friend is really in love with Daisy

Lahat daw ay ibibigay ibigin lang siya ni daisy
He said he'll give her everything, as long as she loves him

Kaya siya ay nagregalo ng lupa at bahay
That's why he gave her land and a house

Appliances na hulugan kasama pa ang brand new car
Appliances on installment, even a brand new car

Ngunit anong saklap ang nangyari
But what a tragic thing happened

Si kumpare ay biglang na onse
My friend suddenly became unlucky

Pagkat ito palang si daisy
Because Daisy was already with someone else

Sumama sa ibang lalaki
She went with another man

Kaya hayan ngayon si kumpare
That's why my friend is always looking, night after night

Laging naghahanap gabi-gabi
Always searching every night

Baka muli siyang makakita
Maybe he'll find another

Ng bago na naming daisy
Another Daisy for him

Daisy-sais daisy-siete
Daisy six, Daisy seven

Daisy-otso daisy nuebe
Daisy eight, Daisy nine

Kahit na sino pang daisy
No matter who the other Daisy is

Basta't daisy ang gusto ni kumpare
As long as it's Daisy, my friend wants her

Bigla ko tong hinanap kasi mga ganitong klase lagi yung pinapatugtog ng nanay ko dati nung 2005-2010s sa VCD player. I really missed those times lalo na wala na siya ngayon.
