Lando
Gloc-9 Lyrics

Wag kang mabahala may nagbabantay sa dilim
Don't worry, someone is watching over you in the dark

Nakaabang sa sulok at may hawak na patalim
Lurking in the corner, armed with a knife

Di ka hahayaan na muli pang masaktan
You won't be allowed to get hurt again

Wag ka nang matakot sa dilim
Don't be afraid of the dark

Ito ay kwentong hango na galing sa dalawang taong
This is a story inspired by two people

Nagmamahalan ng tunay ang ngala'y Elsa at Lando
Elsa and Lando truly love each other

At kahit parang pagkakataon ay nakakandado
Even though it seems like they're trapped

Dahil magkalayo ang uri ng buhay ang estado
Because they come from different walks of life

Ng buhay ni Lando ay di nalalayo sa marami
Lando's life is not far from many others

Sinunog ng araw ang kulay ng balat at marami
The sun has burnt the skin of many

Ng galon ng pawis ang kanyang naidilig sa lupa
He sweats gallons working on the ground

Upang ang gutom ay di na masuklian pa ng luha
So that his hunger can't be quenched by tears

Habang ang babaeng kanyang minamahal ay sagana
While the woman he loves is abundant

Ngunit kabilang sa pamilya na di alintanang
But also part of a family that doesn't care

Makipagkapwa-tao sa mga tulad niyang dukha
To relate to people like him who are poor

Gayon pa ma'y patuloy ang pagmamahal na pinula ng pagibig
Even so, love continues to blossom

Kahit na ano pang bagay ang pilit na ihadlang
No matter what obstacles try to block their way

Sino man ay walang makakapigil sa paghakbang
No one can stop them from moving forward

Ng mga paa na ang nais ay marating ang ligaya
Of feet that only seek happiness

Niyayang magtanan di nag-atubili na sumama
Invited to elope, they didn't hesitate to join

Hawak ang pangarap at pangako sa isa't isa
Holding onto their dreams and promises to each other

Nagpakalayo-layo di namuhay na may kaba
They lived far apart without fear

Dahil alam nila na sa bawa't isa'y nakalaan
Because they know that they are meant for each other

At ang pagmamahalan tangi nilang sinasandalan
And their love is the only thing they rely on

Wala ng ibang bagay pa silang mahihiling
They don't wish for anything else

Kundi isang pamilya sa loob ng apat na dingding
But a family within four walls

At isang bubong na maaaring tawaging tahanan
And a roof that can be called home

Bakit may pangit na kabanatang kailangang daanan pa
But why is there an ugly chapter they need to go through

Isang gabi na Huwebes lumubog na ang araw
One Thursday evening, the sun went down

Doon tayo magkita pasalubong ko'y siopao
We will meet there, I brought some siopao as a gift

Upang ating paghatian pagdating ng hapunan
So that we can share it when dinner comes

Meron palang nakaabang sa amin na kamalasan
Little did we know that misfortune was waiting for us

Eskinita sa Ermita may sumaksak kay Elsa
In the alley of Ermita, someone stabbed Elsa

Sa tagiliran isang makalawang na lanseta
On the side, a rusty lance was found

Ang gamit upang makuha lang ang kanyang pitaka
Used just to get her wallet

Kami'y mahirap lamang bakit di na siya naawa
We are only poor, why didn't he have mercy

Hindi ko naabutang buhay ang aking mahal
I did not catch my beloved alive

At hanggang sa huling hantungan ay nagdarasal
And until her last resting place, I prayed

Bakit po bakit po ang laging lumalabas
Why, oh why, does it always come out

Sa 'king bibig palaboy-laboy ni walang landas
From my lips, aimlessly floating with no direction

Akong sinusunod baliw sa mata ng marami
I am being followed, considered crazy by many

Siguro nga di ko na kilala aking sarili
Maybe I don't even know myself anymore

Pangala'y taong grasa may patalim na gamit
They call me a beggar with a knife

At ang tanging alam ay isang malungkot na awit
And all I know is a sad song

At ang sabi…
And it goes...

Wag ka nang matakot sa dilim
Don't be afraid of the dark
