Himig at Pag-ibig’s Aya Tagalog Lyrics English Meaning
Earl Agustin mentions falling little by little while trying to suppress feelings. The lyricist asks, “My friend, is it possible for us to become lovers?” This physical image of falling mirrors the emotional descent into love. His words describe a vulnerable moment of confession.
Sandali langJust a moment.
Pahirap nang pahirap ang labanThis struggle’s getting harder and harder,
Nahuhulog dahan dahanI’m falling, little by little,
‘Di na yata kaya pang labananand I don’t think I can fight it anymore.
At kahit na ano mang pilitAnd no matter how much I try,
Pigilan aking damdaminto suppress these feelings of mine.
Nais ko sanang ika’y ayainI’d like to invite you,
Sa pang habang buhay na pagmamahalanto a love that lasts a lifetime.
Sa bawat araw na magdaanWith every single day that passes,
Pipiliin iibigin ka sintaI’ll choose to love you, my dear,
Kung hahayaan mo ‘ko na ayain kaif you’ll just let me invite you.
KaibiganMy friend,
Maaari ba kayang magkaibiganis it possible for us to become lovers?
Sandali sandali langWait, just for a second,
Pwede ba nating mapagusapancan we talk about this?
Sakali lang magkaaminanJust in case we both confess,
Pareho ang nararamdamanthat we feel the same way.
Nais ko sanang ika’y ayainI’d like to invite you,
Sa pang habang buhay na pagmamahalanto a love that lasts a lifetime.
Sa bawat araw na magdaanWith every single day that passes,
Pipiliin iibigin ka sintaI’ll choose to love you, my dear,
Kung hahayaan mo ‘ko na ayain kaif you’ll just let me invite you.
Nais ko sanang ika’y ayainI’d like to invite you,
