Ba't Ganto Ang Pag-ibig
Zack Tabudlo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gusto kang samahan pero laging nagmamadali gusto kang kasama kahit sobrang saglit
Pero ang hirap isipin kasi alam ko may iba okay na sakin basta't makita kang masaya
Ba't ganito ba ang pag-ibig pag iisipin ng marami kahit anong gawin wala lang sa kanya
Tinuturing mong prinsesa kahit alam mong kaibigan ka
Hanggang sa dulo walang-wala pa rin sa kanya siya lang kasi ang nagpapasaya
Di mo ata alam na andito lang ako kung kailangan mo ng tulong ako ang sasagip sayo
Mag mumukha akong tanga para sayo basta't makita ngiti mo wala akong pake sa mundo
Pero ang hirap isipin kasi alam ko may iba okay na sakin basta't makita kang masaya
Ba't ganito ba ang pag-ibig pag iisipin ng marami kahit anong gawin wala lang sa kanya
Tinuturing mong prinsesa kahit alam mong kaibigan ka
Hanggang sa dulo walang-wala pa rin sa kanya
Gabi na naman at nakita kang pauwi nag-iisang naglalakad wala pa ring katabi
Tatabihan ka na ba para makasama ka saglit panahon na nga ba para ako'y umibig muli
The song "Ba't Ganto Ang Pag-ibig" by Zack Tabudlo talks about unrequited love and how difficult it is to see someone you love with someone else. The lyrics describe the singer's feelings towards someone they care about deeply, but who only sees them as a friend. The singer longs to be with this person and is always willing to drop everything just to be with them, even for a short time. Despite knowing that the person they love is in a relationship with someone else, the singer is content with just seeing them happy from afar.
The chorus of the song questions the nature of love and why it seems to be so one-sided. The singer wonders why, no matter what they do, they cannot seem to get the attention and love they deserve from the person they care about. They feel like they are nothing more than a friend to this person, even though they treat them like a princess. The singer remains hopeful until the end of the song, wondering if it is finally time to fall in love once again.
Overall, "Ba't Ganto Ang Pag-ibig" is a heartfelt song that captures the emotions of someone who is desperately in love with someone who does not feel the same way. It speaks to anyone who has ever been in love and felt the pain of rejection.

Gabi na naman at nakita kang muli nag-iisang naglalakad wala man lang katabi
It's nighttime again and I saw you walking alone without anyone beside you
Gusto kang samahan pero laging nagmamadali gusto kang kasama kahit sobrang saglit
I want to be with you but you always seem to be in a hurry, I want to be with you even for just a moment
Pero ang hirap isipin kasi alam ko may iba okay na sakin basta't makita kang masaya
But it's difficult to think about because I know you're with someone else, but it's alright for me as long as you're happy
Ba't ganito ba ang pag-ibig pag iisipin ng marami kahit anong gawin wala lang sa kanya
Why is it like this in love that no matter what you do, it doesn't matter to the other person
Tinuturing mong prinsesa kahit alam mong kaibigan ka
You treat her like a princess even though you know you're just friends
Hanggang sa dulo walang-wala pa rin sa kanya siya lang kasi ang nagpapasaya
Until the end, nothing else matters to her except the one who makes her happy
Di mo ata alam na andito lang ako kung kailangan mo ng tulong ako ang sasagip sayo
You probably don’t know that I'm here to help you whenever you need it, I'll be the one to save you
Mag mumukha akong tanga para sayo basta't makita ngiti mo wala akong pake sa mundo
I'll look stupid for you, as long as I see you smile, I don't care about the world
Gabi na naman at nakita kang pauwi nag-iisang naglalakad wala pa ring katabi
It's nighttime again and I saw you walking home alone without anyone beside you
Tatabihan ka na ba para makasama ka saglit panahon na nga ba para ako'y umibig muli
Will I sit beside you just to be with you for a moment, is it time for me to fall in love again

Alam mo ka relate ako dyan. Kahit di naman kami mag best friend pero close kami to the point nga open minded na kami sa isa't isa. Nag confess naman ako pero sya confuse pa kaya hindi nya ako ma straight to the point kasi ayaw din nya ako masaktan.
Pero dumating din ako sa point na confused na din ako sa mga pinapakita nya like everytime pakikiligin ko sya eh sinasakyan nya ako. So nagtanong ako but he left me hanging and he just said nga oks lang and I said to him that it's not okay for me dahil nag ooverthinking na ako at may anxiety ako..
So I asked him nahuhulog naba sya sa akin and he said "Ayaw ko makasakit ng tao, kaya yun na din ang sagot ko". So I get his answer..
Do you know what? Mas napanatag ako sa katotohanan kahit alam kung masakit kaysa sa ginagawa tayong tanga para hindi nila tayo masaktan.
Do I still like him? Yes pero hindi na gaya ng dati kasi alam ko na kung saan na lulugar sa buhay nya and also dahil sa kanya nalaman ko pa ng buo ang worth ko..
Sa ngayon I believe in God's destiny for me. Kaya pinauubaya ko na sa kanya ang love life ko.. ❤️

This song really describes what i'm feeling right now. I have a crush. He said na he likes me too pero he isn't showing me na he likes me. Minsan, ipaparamdam nya na mahalaga ako sakanya, minsan hindi. That's why I'm so confused. Gusto nya ba talaga ako? O ginusto nya lang ako dahil gusto ko sya? Minsan, nawawalan ako ng gana sakanya because of the mixed signals he's showing. I don't know what to believe anymore. He likes to joke around and he likes to prank a lot that's why I don't know what to believe sometimes.
"Siya lang kasi ang nagpapasaya". I really felt that. Even though na ilang beses na akong nasaktan at nagselos, wala akong ginawa kasi I don't have the right naman since wala namang label. Pero still, my feelings for him are true. Kilala siya ni papa and papa knows na sya ang nagpapasaya sakin that's why botong-boto si papa sakanya.
"Pag kailangan mo ng tulong, ako ang sasagip sa'yo". Masipag ako pag dating sa school works and I don't like to have 'missing' works. While my crush, natambakan sya non. Syempre I told him na tapusin nya na kasi mahirap matambakan. I let him copy some of my answers para madalian na sya kasi naawa ako dahil baka mastress sya lalo.
"Mag mumukha akong tanga para sayo. Basta't makita ngiti mo, wala akong pake sa mundo". Gagawin ko lahat para lang mapangiti ka. Kahit mag mukha na akong tanga, gaga, bobo. Gagawin ko yun lahat kasi gusto ko na maramdaman mo na naappreciate kita ng sobra. Na may isang tao na nakakaintindi sayo. Nandito ako na lagi kang sasamahan sa mga kagaguhan mo.
"Ba't ganito ba ang pag-ibig? Pag iisipin ng marami. Kahit anong gawin, wala lang sakanya".
Siguro nga hindi ito yung right time for the both of us pero when time comes, sana pwede pa at sana.. ako na

Be brave. Take risk. Tell her/him how you feel.. It's better to regret trying.
Kung inaantay mo ang "Someday.. mapapansin din niya lahat ng effort and love ko para sa kanya.. at okay lang sa ngayon na sa "iba" umiikot ang mundo niya.. na Side Character lang ako sa story nila.."
"Kasi alam ko darating ang time na yun, na magiging Ako din ang main character sa puso niya.. nandito lang ako sa tabi niya..hindi ako susuko!"
What if hindi?
Hope can be a poison for those who waits..

Ako nasabi kona sa kanya na mahal ko siya pero may minamahal kasi siyang iba pero okay lang naman kuntento naman ako sa kung anong meron kami ngayon kahit na kaibigan lamang ang importante masaya siya kahit hindi ako ang nilalaman ng puso niya . Every pain is learnings and it takes time.

@uza ki okay lang yan..take time to heal..mag focus ka iimprove ulit sarili mo..self love..hanapin mo mga nawala..mga di mo nagagawa noong nandiyan siya or napupuntahan.. masakit at hahanap hanapin mo presence niya..pero wala na eh..walang masamang sumuko..
galing din ako sa ganyan..crush ko siya..nilakasan ko loob ko .naging kami for 8 years..she became my fiancé..pero ito 2 years na akong self love.. i did my best..pero kapag hindi sa tamang tao..laging kulang...kaya ayun..sa iba na niya tinutuloy mga pangarap namin..
Kapag hindi talaga para sa iyo..kahit anung gawin mo..mawawala.. at least bago mawala ginawa mo lahat..walang regrets..be grateful nalang sa magagandang ala-ala and life lesson..
