Bisan og makakita lang ko
Sa imohang
Buko-buko hay naku
Please ay na og usab pakita kay
Makita unya nimo
Unsa ko kabogo
No questions asked
Kay abi kog ma ako ka
Apan na man d'ay na siya
But there's no stopping me
Kung mag kilig-kilig
Kog patago diri sa sud sa akong
Utok, utok nga
Gamay na lay kuwang
Hapit na ko mabuang
Kay my head says no
But my heart say o
Lagi, tanga tingali ko
Dali-dali kog angkon sa butang
Kay basin pag mabargo sa uban
Apan wa koy alam
Ako diay ang dapat manghuwam
Hu-wow ka way uwaw sad nako
Gadako lang king
Ego kong di kamao maikog
Kuwang na lang
Siya akong pananghiran
Pwede bang ikaw ako na lang?
Cuz there's no stopping me
Kung mag kilig-kilig
Kog patago diri sa sud sa akong
Utok, utok nga
Gamay na lay kuwang
Hapit na ko mabuang
Kay my head says no
But my heart say o
Unsa ko kabogo
Dritso lag layat
Buko-buko ra nimo akong kamatyan
Og dili man, iyang ka igihan
Still there's no stopping me
Kung mag kilig-kilig
Kog patago diri sa sud sa akong
Utok, utok nga
Gamay na lay kuwang
Hapit na ko mabuang
Pinangutana kung sakto ba gyong
Ikaw akong ilogon
And my head says no
But my heart nga bogo kaayo says o
But my heart nga bogo kaayo says o

I'm so foolish to only have a crush on you without thinking. I thought you were mine but it turns out you weren't.
But there's no stopping me Kung mag kilig-kilig Kog patago diri sa sud sa akong Utok, utok nga Gamay na lay kuwang Hapit na ko mabuang Kay my head says no But my heart say o
But I can't control my emotions, I feel giddy and I try to hide my feelings but my heart is screaming yes despite my thoughts that say no.
Lagi, tanga tingali ko Dali-dali kog angkon sa butang Kay basin pag mabargo sa uban Apan wa koy alam Ako diay ang dapat manghuwam Hu-wow ka way uwaw sad nako Gadako lang king
I feel foolish for easily claiming emotions that I shouldn't have. Maybe others will judge me, but I don't know. I realize that I'm the one who should be responsible for my own emotions.
Ego kong di kamao maikog Kuwang na lang Siya akong pananghiran Pwede bang ikaw ako na lang?
I'm so proud that I can't confess my feelings. If only she could feel the same way as I do, can you be mine instead?
Unsa ko kabogo Dritso lag layat Buko-buko ra nimo akong kamatyan Og dili man, iyang ka igihan
I'm really foolish to just look from a distance. You are just the reason for my death and she doesn't even care.
Still there's no stopping me Kung mag kilig-kilig Kog patago diri sa sud sa akong Utok, utok nga Gamay na lay kuwang Hapit na ko mabuang Pinangutana kung sakto ba gyong Ikaw akong ilogon And my head says no But my heart nga bogo kaayo says o But my heart nga bogo kaayo says o
Still, I can't contain my feelings, even if I try to hide them from myself. I ask myself if you're the right one for me, but my heart, which is too foolish, says yes despite my head trying to say no.
