Manatili Ka
Bukas Palad Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Manatili ka
Kahit sandali
Hihilumin ko
Ang iyong hapdi
Bakit lagi na
Nagmamadali
Di malilisan
Ang 'yong pighati

Isaysay sakin
Lahat mong pait
Yayakapin ko
Lahat mong sakit
Manahimik na't
Mata'y ipikit
Bubulungan ka
Ng 'sang oyayi

Kailan titigilan ang iyong katatakbo
Kailan pipigilan pagpasan mo sa mundo

Manatili ka
Kahit sandali
Buuin muli
Ang iyong sarili
Magtiwala ka't
Tayo'y magwawagi




Ang pulang ulap
Ay mahahawi
