Sa ilalim
Kjwan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Binuksan ang mata
Nakita ang pag-ibig
Nasilaw sa ganda
Handa ka na ba para makita
Ang mundo na iyong kinagisnan
Handa ka na ba para makita
Dumayo ang daluyo
Naubos ang lakas
Sumama sa pag-agos
Nalunod nawala
Handa ka na ba para makita
Ang mundo na iyong kinagisnan
Handa ka na ba para makita
Ang mundo na iyong kinagisnan
Nahigop sa ilalim
Binuksan ang mata
Nakita ang pag-ibig
Nasilaw
Handa ka na ba para makita
Ang mundo na iyong kinagisnan
Handa ka na ba para makita
Ang mundo na iyong kinagisnan
Handa ka na ba
Handa ka na ba
Handa ka na ba
In KjwΓ€n's song "Sa Ilalim," the lyrics describe a transformative experience of going underneath and discovering something new. The first verse poses the idea of going underneath, "Nahigop sa ilalim," or diving into something unseen through the use of metaphor. The second line, "Binuksan ang mata," or "open your eyes," suggests that one can only see and understand something new if they are willing to look. The third and fourth lines, "Nakita ang pag-ibig" and "Nasilaw sa ganda," refer to what the singer has discovered - love and beauty. These two concepts are often interlinked, and the idea of discovering them after going underneath is powerful.
The chorus asks the listener if they are ready to see the world they have known in a new light, "Handa ka na ba para makita/ Ang mundo na iyong kinagisnan." The repetition of this question suggests uncertainty and hesitation. The second verse introduces a more turbulent image with "Dumayo ang daluyo/ Naubos ang lakas/ Sumama sa pag-agos/ Nalunod nawala." Roughly translated, it means that there was a strong current and the singer got swept away, losing their strength and getting lost in it. However, the singer seems to have come out on the other side transformed, like they have finally gained a new perspective.
Overall, "Sa Ilalim" is a song that invites the listener to consider what they might find if they go underneath their normal perspective. Whether it be love and beauty or something else entirely, the song suggests that there is something worth discovering if we have the courage and willingness to look.

Nahigop sa ilalim
Taking a deep breath and diving into the depths
Binuksan ang mata
Opening one's eyes to see
Nakita ang pag-ibig
Seeing love in all its forms
Nasilaw sa ganda
Overwhelmed by beauty
Handa ka na ba para makita
Are you ready to see
Ang mundo na iyong kinagisnan
The world as you've known it
Dumayo ang daluyo
The current flows
Naubos ang lakas
Exhausted strength
Sumama sa pag-agos
Going with the flow
Nalunod nawala
Drowned and disappeared
Handa ka na ba
Are you ready
Handa ka na ba
Are you ready
Handa ka na ba
Are you ready

Panderby talaga ng Kjwan dati, napaka experimental ni J-hoon ganda panoorin. Ito yung mga artist na kahit walang nanood feel na feel sayawan lahat ng nota, yung sinulat yung sariling kanta para may headbangin sila sa bahay. Dami pang lead parts besides ng mabibigat na riffs.
