What is the meaning of Salamin, Salamin Lyrics from Talaarawan?
BINI questions a mysterious lover whose actions don’t match his words. The lyrics use a magical mirror to ask, ‘Mirror, mirror, when will he finally notice me?’. The writers describe being trapped in a fairytale dream, hoping for a prince to call.
Oh hello there misteryosoOh, hello there, Mr. Mysterious.
‘Di pa rin mabasa ang ‘yong tunay na motibo ooh-woahI still can’t read your true motives, ooh-woah.
Iba’ng pinapakita taliwas sa’yong salitaWhat you show is the opposite of what you say,
Pero ayokong magduda baka lang sa simulabut I don’t want to doubt; maybe it’s just the start.
Maghihintay na lang na ika’y dumaanI’ll just wait for you to pass by,
Sana ay maibsan ang aking pangungulilahoping my longing will be eased.
Trapped in this fairytale but I don’t wanna wake up in this dream babyI’m trapped in this fairytale, but I don’t want to wake up from this dream, baby.
Ayokong umasa sa paniniwalangI don’t want to hope based on the belief,
May pag-asa nga ba na baka ang puso ko’y mapagbigyanthat there’s a chance my heart might finally get its wish.
Mahiwagang salamin kailan ba niya aamininMagical mirror, when will he finally admit,
Kaniyang tunay na pagtinginhis true feelings for me?
Mahiwagang salamin ano ba’ng dapat gawinMagical mirror, what should I do?
Bakit ang puso’y nabibitinWhy is my heart left hanging?
Salamin salamin sa dingding nasa’n na ang pag-ibigMirror, mirror on the wall, where is that love?
Salamin salamin sa dingding pwede mo bang sabihinMirror, mirror on the wall, can you please tell me?
Salamin salamin sa dingding nasa’n na ang pag-ibigMirror, mirror on the wall, where is that love?
Salamin salamin kailan niya ba ‘ko papansininMirror, mirror, when will he finally notice me?
Ayokong maniwalaI don’t want to believe,
Na baka mabalewalathat it might all just be for nothing.
Pero sa’yong sulyap mga mata’y nangungusap ‘di ko kayang magpanggapBut with your gaze, your eyes are speaking, and I can’t keep pretending.
Ano ba talaga itoWhat is this, really?
Maghihintay na lang na ika’y dumaanI’ll just wait for you to pass by,
Sana ay maibsan ang aking pangungulilahoping my longing will be eased.
Trapped in this fairytale but I don’t wanna wake up in this dream babyI’m trapped in this fairytale, but I don’t want to wake up from this dream, baby.
Ayokong umasa sa paniniwalangI don’t want to hope based on the belief,
May pag-asa nga ba na baka ang puso ko’y mapagbigyanthat there’s a chance my heart might finally get its wish.
Mahiwagang salamin kailan ba niya aamininMagical mirror, when will he finally admit,
Kaniyang tunay na pagtinginhis true feelings for me?
Mahiwagang salamin ano ba’ng dapat gawinMagical mirror, what should I do?
Bakit ang puso’y nabibitinWhy is my heart left hanging?

Mirror mirror on the wallMirror, mirror on the wall,
Please tell my prince charming I’m waiting for his callplease tell my prince charming I’m waiting for his call.
Bakit ba pasikot-sikot para bang pinapaikotWhy is it so complicated, as if I’m being led in circles?
‘Di ko talaga ma-gets ano ba talaga ang next move moI really don’t get it; what exactly is your next move?
Gusto ko lang naman malamanI just really want to know,
Ano ba ang katotohananwhat the truth really is.
Better say it now it’s not too lateBetter say it now; it’s not too late.
I’m ready to be called your princess heyI’m ready to be called your princess, hey!
Ayokong umasa sa paniniwalangI don’t want to hope based on the belief,
May pag-asa nga ba na baka ang puso ko’y mapagbigyanthat there’s a chance my heart might finally get its wish.
