Wakas Lyrics English Translation by Sb19
John Paulo Nase asks, ‘Can you please not let me go?’ as he reflects on shared promises and fading hope. The lyrics describe a paradise built together, now at risk of falling apart. Every word carries the weight of holding onto what once was.
Di ko na makita paI can’t see it anymore,
ang liwanag na dati’y malayathe light that was once so free.
Patuloy lang saMy feet just keep on
Paglakad ang aking mga paawalking forward.
Panatag na kailan ma’y di ako mag-iisaI was sure that I would never be alone.
NgunitBut,
Unti-unting kumupas lahat ng kulayslowly, all the colors faded.
Naglaho ang sigla ng datingThe energy we used to have disappeared,
Punung-puno ng buhayso full of life.
Kinabukasan man ay walang patunayEven if the future has no guarantees,
Umaasa na hindi ka pa mawawalaI’m hoping you won’t disappear just yet.
Kung lahat may hanggan,If everything has an end,
Pwede ba’ng ‘wag mo na ‘kong bitawanCan you please not let me go?
‘Di ba’t kung mahalaga,Because if something is important,
‘Di mo hahayaang mawala nang bastayou won’t just let it disappear.
Alam kong pagod ka na…I know you’re tired…
At nandito pa rin akoAnd I’m still here,
sa paraisong pinangakoin the paradise we promised,
na sabay nating binuothat we built together.
wag natin hayaang gumuhoLet’s not let it fall apart.
bawat minutoEvery minute,
at segundoand every second,
ibibigay ko ang lahatI’ll give it my all.
Oh!Oh!
hayaan mo na muna ako’ng pumasan ng iyong bigatLet me carry your burden for now.
Ng bigat, Oh!Your burden, Oh!
Unti-unting kumupas lahat ng kulaySlowly, all the colors faded.
Naglaho ang sigla ng datingThe energy we used to have disappeared,
Punung-puno ng buhayso full of life.
Kinabukasan man ay walang patunayEven if the future has no guarantees,
Umaasa pang hindi ka basta mawawalaI’m still hoping you won’t just disappear.
Kung lahat may hanggan,If everything has an end,
Pwede ba’ng ‘wag mo na ‘kong bitawanCan you please not let me go?
‘Di ba’t kung mahalaga,Because if something is important,
‘Di mo hahayaang mawala nang bastayou won’t just let it disappear.
Alam kong pagod ka naI know you’re tired.
Kung lahat may hanggan,If everything has an end,
Pakiusap wag mo kong sukuanI’m begging you, don’t give up on me.
‘Di ba pwedeng balikanCan’t we go back to
Ang mga pangako sa’ting nakaraanthe promises in our past?
Iyo bang nalimutan? Oh!Have you forgotten? Oh!
Di ko na alam kung anong gagawin,I don’t know what to do anymore,
Kung para sa’n pa ang aking mga hilingwhat my wishes are even for.
Malayo-layo na rin ating naratingWe’ve already come so far.
Ba’t parang mag-isa’t ako na lang?Why does it feel like I’m the only one left?
Wala ba talagang kinabukasan angIs there really no future for
Mga sinimulan, ayoko namangwhat we started? I don’t want
Pagsisihan ang lahatto regret everything.
Ito na ba’ng wakas?Is this the end?
Ang lahat may hanggan, Oh!Everything has a limit, oh!
Walang saysay ang patuloy lumabanThere’s no point in continuing to fight.
‘Di ba, para kang tangaIsn’t it foolish,
kung isasalba mo pa rin ang wala naif you keep trying to save what’s already gone?
Alam kong ubos ka naI know you’re already exhausted.
Kung lahat may hanggan, OohhIf everything has an end, oohh,
Pakiusap wag mo akong sukuanplease don’t give up on me.
‘Di na ba mahalagaDon’t they matter anymore,
Mga binitawan nating salitathe words that we exchanged?
Ako man ay pagod na…Even I’m tired…
Eto nga bang simula at wakas ngIs this really the beginning and the end of
Mga bagay bagay na pinaghirapanall the things we worked so hard for?
Matatapos na lang ba sa paalam?Will it all just end with a goodbye?
Eto nga bang simula at wakas ngIs this really the beginning and the end of
Lahat ng pangarap na ating nilabanall the dreams we fought for?
Wag mong kalimutan ang aking pangalanDon’t forget my name.
