Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Apat na oras tayong nagbabad sa telepono
Inabutan na tayo ng umaga no'n
Ngunit bakit ngayon, malamig ka bigla
Magdamag na sa tabi mo, wala man lang "hello"
Hello, hello, hello
Naririnig mo pa ba ako?
'Pag nandito na tayo sa tunay na mundo
Hello, 'di na kita naiintindihan
Malabo na ba ang linya sa ating dalawa
Hello, gising ka pa kaya?
Hello, nahihilo na ako sa 'yo
Tuwing gabi 'pag nagriring ang telepono
Ikaw ang naiisip ko
Tumawag ka, tumawag ka
O, please tumawag ka naman
Dahil kailangan lang marinig ang boses mo
O, ngayong gabi, managinip
Managinip ulit tayo sa sarili nating mundo
Lyric contributed by: Babes Valerie
The song "Telepono" by Sugarfree revolves around a conversation between two people through the telephone. The first stanza reminisces about the time they spent talking on the phone for four hours last night until morning, but now the other person seems cold and distant. The chorus follows, as the singer tries to reconnect with the other person, but there is no response. The lyrics suggest that they are no longer on the phone, but rather in the real world. The singer is trying to reach out, but they cannot understand each other, possibly because their communication is strained.
The second stanza continues the singer's plea for the other person to answer. They mention that they always think of the other person when the phone rings and how they desperately need to hear their voice. The bridge acknowledges that they cannot talk to each other anymore, so they must resort to dreaming about their own world. The song's theme centers around the inability to communicate, possibly after a conflict or misunderstanding.
Overall, "Telepono" is a heart-wrenching ballad that explores the complexities of relationships and miscommunication. It highlights the importance of communication and how the lack of it can lead to a disconnect between two people. The song's simple melody complements the lyric's melancholic tone, making it a true classic in the OPM (Original Pilipino Music) genre.

Natatandaan mo ba kagabi
Do you remember last night?
Apat na oras tayong nagbabad sa telepono
We spent four hours on the phone
Inabutan na tayo ng umaga no'n
Morning came while we were still talking
Ngunit bakit ngayon, malamig ka bigla
But why are you suddenly cold now?
Magdamag na sa tabi mo, wala man lang "hello"
I'm here all night but you didn't even say hello
Hello, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hello
Naririnig mo pa ba ako?
Can you still hear me?
Kung wala na tayo sa telepono
If we're no longer on the phone
'Pag nandito na tayo sa tunay na mundo
When we're in the real world
Hello, 'di na kita naiintindihan
Hello, I don't understand you anymore
Malabo na ba ang linya sa ating dalawa
Is the line between us already blurry?
Hello, gising ka pa kaya?
Hello, are you still awake?
Hello, nahihilo na ako sa 'yo
Hello, I'm getting dizzy with you
Tuwing gabi 'pag nagriring ang telepono
Every night when the phone rings
Ikaw ang naiisip ko
I think of you
Tumawag ka, tumawag ka
Call me, call me
O, please tumawag ka naman
Oh, please call me
Dahil kailangan lang marinig ang boses mo
Because I just need to hear your voice
O, ngayong gabi, managinip
Oh, tonight, let's dream
Managinip ulit tayo sa sarili nating mundo
Let's dream again in our own world
