Callalily Lyrics

Iilang araw na ang lumipas
Di pa rin sayo magbabago
Nakalimutan mo na bang
Baka naman akoy nan dyan pa
Di na sana madama

[Chorus:]

Bawat panalangin ko sanay di na mag isa
Isipin limutin bakit di magawang ikay lisanin
Pilitin sabihin mong hanggang dito nalang

Ako ay natutunaw
Pangarap ay lumilipad
Sa sikat ng iyong araw
Pag asay untiunting nalulusaw

[Repeat chorus]

At kung hindi ka na babalik
Antayin nalang kta sa langit

Isipin limutin bakit di magawang ikay lisanin
Pilitin sabihin mong hanggang dto nalang
Hanggang dto
Hanggang dto

Hanggang dto
Hanggang dto...

Despite the pain of waiting, the chorus highlights the character's unwavering faith that things will work out. They consistently pray for the return of their lover, even if it means waiting indefinitely. The second verse describes how the character's dreams and aspirations have been affected by their love. They hint that they're slowly fading away, as their lover's absence only makes them feel worse.

Overall, Hintay conveys a message of love, longing, and devotion despite the odds. Callalily's use of simple yet meaningful lyrics paired with the melody makes the song even more impactful.
