Bahay Kubo
Hale Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Alam, mo ba
Kung saan tayo, tutungo
Ilang, gabi
Na tayong, nawawala
Halika na

Bakas, sa labi mo
Pagod, at uhaw
Hanggang, kailan
Tayo maglalakbay

Halika na doon tayo matulog
Sa gabi hindi kita iiwan
Yakapin mo ako
Sa bahay kubo

Oh.. oh.. oh.. oh..
Oh.. oh.. oh.. oh..

Sa dilim, wag kang matakot
Matulog, nang mahimbing
Malapit na
Bukas mamumula ang langit

Halika na doon tayo matulog
Sa gabi hindi kita iiwan
Yakapin mo ako
Sa bahay kubo

Halika na doon tayo matulog
Sa gabi hindi kita iiwan




Yakapin mo ako
Sa bahay kubo

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song Bahay Kubo by the Filipino band Hale talk about two people who are lost, tired, and thirsty, and who are looking for a place to rest for the night. The lyrics invite the person listening to come with them to a small hut, a traditional Filipino dwelling called a bahay kubo, where they can sleep and find comfort. The chorus repeats the invitation to come and rest at the bahay kubo, which is also seen as a symbol of the warmth and hospitality of Filipino culture.


The song's emotional appeal lies in its simplicity and its evocation of the beauty of the rural landscape and the simple life. The lyrics speak to the idea of finding rest and solace in a place that provides shelter, and to the idea that true hospitality is open-hearted and welcoming. The imagery in the lyrics, such as the reference to the sky turning red at dawn, suggests that the bahay kubo is located in a beautiful rural setting and that its inhabitants are in tune with the natural world around them.


Overall, the song Bahay Kubo reflects the values of Filipino culture, such as respect for family, faith in God, and an appreciation for the beauty of the natural world. It is a song that invites the listener to share in the warmth and generosity of Filipino hospitality and to find rest and peace in a world that can often be overwhelming and chaotic.

We've been lost
