Narito
Jed Madela Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Aking pangarap kahit saglit
Ang ikaw at ako'y magkapiling
Minsan pang makita ka
Damdamin ay sumasaya
Lungkot napapawi
Buhay ko'y ngingiti
Sa sandaling pag-ibig mo'y makapiling
Puso ko'y narito
Naghihintay sa pag-ibig mo
Ikaw lamang ang inaasam
Tanggapin mo ang puso kong narito
Hanggang matapos ang kailanman
Bawat kilos mo't galaw
Minamasdan, tinatanaw
Laging nangangarap, kahit saglit
Ang ikaw at ako'y magkapiling
Puso ko'y narito
Naghihintay sa pag-ibig mo
Ikaw lamang ang inaasam
Tanggapin mo ang puso kong narito
Hanggang matapos ang kailanman
Kahit di malaman o maintindihan
Kahit na masugatan ang puso
Naghihintay sayo
Maghihintay ako
Puso ko'y narito
Naghihintay sa pag-ibig mo
Ikaw lamang ang inaasam
Tanggapin mo ang puso kong narito
Hanggang matapos ang kailanman
The song "Narito" by Jed Madela tells the story of a deep and powerful love that persists over time and distance. The song opens with the singer offering up his dreams and longings to the one he loves, even if it is just for a moment. He speaks of how being with her brings him immeasurable joy, banishing all his sadness and making his life worth living. He sings about his heart being with her, waiting for her love and acceptance, and how she is the only one he desires to be with until the end of time.
The second verse speaks of how the singer watches, observes, and dreams about the object of his affection, even if it is just momentarily. He dreams of being with her and cherishing every moment together. The bridge declares that even if he is hurt or does not understand, he will continue to wait for her, to love her, and be with her always.

Ninaalay lamang sa'yo
I offer to you, even just briefly
Aking pangarap kahit saglit
My dream, even for a moment
Ang ikaw at ako'y magkapiling
That you and I may be together
Minsan pang makita ka
To see you once more
Damdamin ay sumasaya
My emotions become joyful
Lungkot napapawi
Sadness dissipates
Buhay ko'y ngingiti
My life will have a smile
Sa sandaling pag-ibig mo'y makapiling
At the moment when I am with your love
Puso ko'y narito
My heart is here
Naghihintay sa pag-ibig mo
Waiting for your love
Ikaw lamang ang inaasam
You are the only one I crave

Even if not understood
Kahit na masugatan ang puso
Even if the heart gets hurt
Naghihintay sayo
I am waiting for you
Maghihintay ako
I will wait
