Ako'y Maghihintay
Mark Bautista Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Alam kong ikaw ay bata pa walang malay sa mundo,
ngunit damadamin ko sayo?y tila nahuhulog
Sarah:
Bata mang ituring ako?y mayroong pagtingin,
huwag mo sanang mapansin ako?y naglalambing
Dahil hindi pa tamang panahon
upang magmahalan kahit na puso ay nasasaktan
Chorus
Ako?y maghihintay lamang sa iyo
hanggang umabot tayo sa takdang panahon,
magtitiis, magbibigay kahit umabot pang habang buhay,
ako?y maghihintay
Mark:
Habang ako?y naghihintay huwag sanang magbago,
hindi ko kakayanin na ikaw ay lumayo
Sarah:
Darating din ang araw at sasabihin ko kung ano
ang tunay kong nadarama sa iyo
Duet:
Ngunit hindi pa tamang panahon upang magmahalan
kahit na puso ay nasasaktan
Ay hindi magbabago ang damdamin ko sa ?yo
at balang araw ang magtatagpo ang mga puso
Chorus
Ako?y maghihintay lamang sa iyo
hanggang umabot tayo sa takdang panahon,
magtitiis, magbibigay kahit umabot pang habang buhay,
ako?y maghihintay
Chorus
Ako?y maghihintay lamang sa iyo
hanggang umabot tayo sa takdang panahon,
magtitiis, magbibigay kahit umabot pang habang buhay,
ako?y maghihintay

Alam kong ikaw ay bata pa walang malay sa mundo,
I know you're still young and innocent about the world,
ngunit damadamin ko sayo?y tila nahuhulog
But I feel like I'm falling for you
Bata mang ituring ako?y mayroong pagtingin,
Although people see me as young, I have feelings for you,
huwag mo sanang mapansin ako?y naglalambing
Please don't mind me flirting with you
Dahil hindi pa tamang panahon
Because it's not yet the right time
upang magmahalan kahit na puso ay nasasaktan
To love even though it hurts
Ako?y maghihintay lamang sa iyo
I will wait for you,
hanggang umabot tayo sa takdang panahon,
Until we reach the right time
magtitiis, magbibigay kahit umabot pang habang buhay,
I will endure and give, even if it takes a lifetime
ako?y maghihintay
I will wait
Habang ako?y naghihintay huwag sanang magbago,
While I'm waiting, I hope you won't change
hindi ko kakayanin na ikaw ay lumayo
I can't bear it if you go away
Darating din ang araw at sasabihin ko kung ano
The day will come when I will tell you how I truly feel
ang tunay kong nadarama sa iyo
About my true feelings for you
Ngunit hindi pa tamang panahon upang magmahalan
But it's still not the right time to love each other
Ay hindi magbabago ang damdamin ko sa ?yo
My feelings for you will not change
at balang araw ang magtatagpo ang mga puso
And someday our hearts will meet
Ako?y maghihintay lamang sa iyo
I will wait for you,
hanggang umabot tayo sa takdang panahon,
Until we reach the right time
magtitiis, magbibigay kahit umabot pang habang buhay,
I will endure and give, even if it takes a lifetime
ako?y maghihintay
I will wait
Ako?y maghihintay lamang sa iyo
I will wait for you,
hanggang umabot tayo sa takdang panahon,
Until we reach the right time
magtitiis, magbibigay kahit umabot pang habang buhay,
I will endure and give, even if it takes a lifetime
ako?y maghihintay
I will wait
