Malayo Na Tayo
Silent Sanctuary Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nagawa ko na ang lahat
Ngunit hindi mapantayan
Ikaw ang kailangan
Umakyat lumipad
Sinisid na ang dagat
Pagkawala mo'y nilalabanan

Dahil
Malayo na tayo
Kumukupas na ang mundo
Sumpaan pala'y nagbabago
Dahil nga
Malayo na tayo

Akala ko'y madali lang kayanin
Ang lungkot at pag iisa
Mga liham mo't naiwang larawan
Dagdag bigat sa nadarama

Malayo na tayo
Kumukupas na ang mundo
Sumpaan pala'y nagbabago
Dahil nga malayo na

Naranasan ko nang maglakad sa buwan
Nanahimik naghintay sa kalawakan
Susubukan kong pigilin ang oras
At mag isang humaharap sa bukas

Malayo na tayo
Kumukupas na ang mundo
Sumpaan pala'y nagbabago
Kahit na dahil nga
Malayo na tayo
Nandiyan ka't nandito ako
Maalis ka ba sa isip ko




Kahit na malayo na tayo
Malayo na tayo

Overall Meaning

The song "Malayo Na Tayo" by Silent Sanctuary is a poignant ballad about the pain of distance in a relationship. The lyrics describe the singer's struggle to cope with the separation from a loved one, and the feelings of emptiness and loneliness that result from it. The opening lines, "Nagawa ko na ang lahat, ngunit hindi mapantayan, ikaw ang kailangan" (I've done everything, but nothing can compare to you, you're what I need), set the tone for the rest of the song, which is filled with longing and yearning.


As the song progresses, the singer describes his attempts to keep the relationship alive, even as the world fades away and everything changes around him. He talks about the letters and pictures left behind by his lover, which only serve to remind him of what he's lost. Despite his efforts, however, the distance proves too much to overcome, and the singer is left alone to grapple with his emotions.


The final verse of the song is especially poignant, as the singer reflects on the lengths he's gone to in order to bridge the gap between himself and his lover. He's walked on the moon, gazed up at the stars, and tried to hold back time, all in the hope of finding a way back to her. But in the end, he realizes that the distance is too great, and that they may never be together again.


Overall, "Malayo Na Tayo" is a beautiful and moving song that captures the pain of separation and the longing for connection in a way that many listeners will relate to.


Line by Line Meaning

Nagawa ko na ang lahat
I have done everything that I can


Ngunit hindi mapantayan
But it is still not enough to match up to you


Ikaw ang kailangan
You are the one I need


Umakyat lumipad
I climbed and flew


Sinisid na ang dagat
I even dove into the sea


Pagkawala mo'y nilalabanan
But I am still fighting your absence


Dahil
Because


Malayo na tayo
We are now far apart


Kumukupas na ang mundo
The world is fading


Sumpaan pala'y nagbabago
Even promises change


Dahil nga
Because


Akala ko'y madali lang kayanin
I thought it would be easy to handle


Ang lungkot at pag iisa
The sadness and loneliness


Mga liham mo't naiwang larawan
Your letters and left behind pictures


Dagdag bigat sa nadarama
Add weight to my feelings


Naranasan ko nang maglakad sa buwan
I have experienced walking on the moon


Nanahimik naghintay sa kalawakan
I stayed still and waited in space


Susubukan kong pigilin ang oras
I will try to stop time


At mag isang humaharap sa bukas
And face tomorrow alone


Nandiyan ka't nandito ako
You are there and I am here


Maalis ka ba sa isip ko
Will I ever forget you?


Kahit na malayo na tayo
Even though we are far apart


Malayo na tayo
We are now far apart

Still remember the first time na napakinggan ko itong song na 'to. 2017 yun.

At sobrang nakarelate talaga ako, kasi, hindi na kami magkaklase nung taong mahal ko, kasi College na kami. Hindi na kami madalas magkita. Weekly na lang. At nasa process ako ng pag move-on noon

Sa sobrang relate ko sa song na ito at siya yung naaalala ko, I actually stoped listening to this song, kasi nga, gusto kong mag move on.

But now, last months,
this 2023, lagi ko na ulit siya pinapakinggan, na-remind ako nito kung nasaan ako sa buhay niya, even though, weekly naman kami nagkikita (Yun na nga, at di maiiwasan 😅)
At masakit pa rin sa'kin yung malaman mo na wala pala talaga siyang pagtingin sa'yo

But after learning the truth, na-realize ko na I'm being selfish. At mas bagay pa pala sa kaniya itong kanta, dahil talagang 'malayo' na siya sa taong mahal niya, at baka nga or hindi na talaga silang magkita pang muli

Yes, nasaktan ako para sa sarili ko. Knowing na may mahal pala talaga siyang iba, even before pa kami magkakilala

Pero mas nasaktan at nasasaktan ako para sa kaniya
Kasi malayo na ang lalaking mahal niya at hindi na sila magkikita muli

At na-gets ko na ang lahat
Lahat lahat kung bakit

Kasi, malayo na siya sa kaniya
