River
MNL48 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sumulong paharap (got it)
Huwag kang hihinto (got it)
Lugar kung saan sumisikat ang araw
Maglakad sa landas ng pag-asa
Pagharang sa landas, river, river, river
Tadhana ng river, river, river
Mapanubok na river
'Wag ka na mag-alinlangan
Ipakita ang lakas ng loob
'Wag mag-alangan at ngayon na
Halika at sumulong (believe yourself)
Sulong, sulong, diretsong pasulong
Tawirin ang ilog, ho, ho, ho, ho
Ang pangarap kam'kailan, malayo man kung tignan
Tila parang halos din 'di ko maabot
Bato sa iyong paanan, pumili ka ng isa
Itapon gamit ang buong lakas mo
At sa harap ng iyong mga mata
Ilog na umaagos, malawak na ilog
Kahit madilim, malalim, kahit malakas ang agos
'Di kailangang matakot kahit pa mahiwalay
Mayro'ng pampang na nakaabang
Mas pagtiwalaan ang sarili mo
At sa kadiliman, tutukan ang landas
'Wag kang lilingon, ho, ho, ho, ho
Sa 'yong pag-abot ng tulong, nando'n ang ating bukas
'Wag susuko sa bagay na 'di pa kaya
Ang batong iyong itinapon, pangarap ay matutupad
At hindi kailanman na mabibigo
Sa loob ng iyong puso ay may umaagos na ilog
Maraming pagsubok
'Di man umayon sa plano, minsan halos pang malunod
Tatayo at muling susubok, 'wag na 'wag kang susuko
Mayro'ng pampang na nakaabang
Balang araw ay iyong mararating
Get over it, river
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) 'Wag magbigay ng maraming dahilan
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) 'Di malalaman kung 'di susubukan
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) Tanging pagsulong ang tamang landas
Lagi, lagi, lagi, tuloy lang sa paglakad sa piniling landas
At sa harap ng iyong mga mata
Ilog na umaagos, malawak na ilog
Kahit madilim, malalim, kahit malakas ang agos
'Di kailangang matakot kahit pa mahiwalay
Mayro'ng pampang na nakaabang
Mas pagtiwalaan ang sarili mo
At sa loob ng iyong puso (may umaagos na ilog)
Ilog ng pagsisikap at luha
Kahit ikaw ma'y mabigo, matangay man ng agos ng ilog
Mag-uumpisa sa simula, itigil ang pagdaing
Kumapit sa iyong pangarap
Hanggang sa matupad ang iyong hangarin
Tawirin ang ilog, you can do it

Tawirin ang ilog, ho, ho, ho, ho
Cross the river, ho, ho, ho, ho
Ang pangarap kam'kailan, malayo man kung tignan
The dream recently, looks far away
Tila parang halos din 'di ko maabot
Seems almost unreachable
Bato sa iyong paanan, pumili ka ng isa
Stones at your feet, choose one
Itapon gamit ang buong lakas mo
Throw it using all your strength
At sa harap ng iyong mga mata
And in front of your eyes
Ilog na umaagos, malawak na ilog
River flowing, wide river
Kahit madilim, malalim, kahit malakas ang agos
Even if it's dark, deep, even if the current is strong
'Di kailangang matakot kahit pa mahiwalay
No need to be afraid even if separated
Mayro'ng pampang na nakaabang
There's a shore waiting
Mas pagtiwalaan ang sarili mo
Trust yourself more
At sa kadiliman, tutukan ang landas
And in the dark, focus on the path
'Wag kang lilingon, ho, ho, ho, ho
Don't look back, ho, ho, ho, ho
Sa 'yong pag-abot ng tulong, nando'n ang ating bukas
When you reach for help, our future is there
'Wag susuko sa bagay na 'di pa kaya
Don't give up on something you can't do yet
Ang batong iyong itinapon, pangarap ay matutupad
The stone you threw, the dream will come true
At hindi kailanman na mabibigo
And never fail
Sa loob ng iyong puso ay may umaagos na ilog
Inside your heart flows a river
Maraming pagsubok
Many challenges
'Di man umayon sa plano, minsan halos pang malunod
Even if it doesn't go according to plan, sometimes it feels like drowning
Tatayo at muling susubok, 'wag na 'wag kang susuko
Stand up and try again, never give up
Balang araw ay iyong mararating
Someday you'll reach it
Get over it, river
Get over it, river
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) 'Wag magbigay ng maraming dahilan
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) Don't give too many excuses
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) 'Di malalaman kung 'di susubukan
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) You'll never know if you don't try
Tanging pagsulong ang tamang landas
The correct path is just to move forward
Lagi, lagi, lagi, tuloy lang sa paglakad sa piniling landas
Always, always, always, keep walking on the chosen path
Mag-uumpisa sa simula, itigil ang pagdaing
Start from the beginning, stop complaining
Kumapit sa iyong pangarap
Hold on to your dreams
Hanggang sa matupad ang iyong hangarin
Until your aspirations are realized
Tawirin ang ilog, you can do it
Cross the river, you can do it

It's really nice that MNL48 let's everyone have proper screentime compared to other 48G MVs that are heavily center focused. Their vocals has always been amazing and the MV quality is great. Can't wait to hear them sing this live cause they always perform and sound even better live. Way to go MNL48! 🤟
@thepinksfourever9891
Sigurado ako na itong MV na to ang paulit-ulit kong babalikan lalo na’t ito ang huling pagkakataon kung saan nandito si Sela, Belle at Alice. Sobra ko na silang namimiss. Itatago ko sa puso ko itong MV na to.
@beatricemarie826

This song is very empowering. If you're losing hope or confidence on yourself, just listen to this and it will instantly uplift your spirit.
