Tagalog Christmas Song -Ang Diwa ng Pasko

Ang Diwa Ng Pasko

Composed by:
ADELARDO ARRADAZA

Lyrics by:
ERNIE DELA PEÑA



uploaded by cathcath.com



Sa Pagsilang itong Berbo
Nagdiwang ang mundo
At ang tatlong Haring Mago
Nag-alay sa Niño
Naging diwa nitong Pasko
Ang mag-aginaldo
'Yan ang ugaling kay gandang
Di dapat magbago

May mansanas at peras
Lansones at ubas
Dalanghita at litsiyas
Mayroon ding castanyas
Sari-saring mga prutas
Ating malalasap
Tuwing araw ng Pasko'y
Ganyan sa nayon at bayan

Koro:
Di mabilang ang namamasko
Ninang at Ninong ay nalilito
'Yan ang diwa ng ating Pasko
Magbigayan sana tayo
Kahit hindi Pasko

MARTIN NIEVERA



uploaded by cathcath.com

Mark Bautista and Sarah Geronimo

Intro:

It's the time of year when good friends are near
Tryin' hard to find a quiet moment,
Sharing love and joy, children with their toys
Sadness fills my heart to see you go

Chorus
Christmas won't be the same without you (without you)
Christmas won't be the same if you go
All I need to see standing by my
Christmas tree (is you)
Christmas won't be the same without you

I remember when the times we used to spend
Walking hand in hand until the sun sets,
Then came Christmas eve, the wish you gave to me
How I wish I tried to make you stay
(Repeat Chorus except last 2 words)

....without you

Bridge
It's been a long, long time
I need you by my side
Hold me tight and don't let go
Let go

(Repeat Chorus)
(Repeat Chorus except last 2 words)

Coda
Christmas won't be the same
Christmas won't be the same,
don't go

Ooh.

Lyricist: Unknown

Nuong Araw ng Pasko
Ako ay bata pa
Minsan sa ninang ko ako ay nagpunta
Ang aginaldo niya sa akin ay barya
Upang ihulog ko sa aking alkansya

Koro:
Maligayang Pasko aking ninang
"Pagpalain kayo ng Maykapal"
Ibig ko sana ay araw-araw
Mamasko sa inyo, ninang

OPM-God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
by: Orange And Lemons


uploaded by cathcath.com

God rest ye merry, gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember, Christ, our Saviour
Was born on Christmas day
To save us all from Satan's power
When we were gone astray
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

In Bethlehem, in Israel,
This blessed Babe was born
And laid within a manger
Upon this blessed morn
The which His Mother Mary
Did nothing take in scorn
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

From God our Heavenly Father
A blessed Angel came;
And unto certain Shepherds
Brought tidings of the same:
How that in Bethlehem was born
The Son of God by Name.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

"Fear not then," said the Angel,
"Let nothing you affright,
This day is born a Saviour
Of a pure Virgin bright,
To free all those who trust in Him
From Satan's power and might."
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

The shepherds at those tidings
Rejoiced much in mind,
And left their flocks a-feeding
In tempest, storm and wind:
And went to Bethlehem straightway
The Son of God to find.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

And when they came to Bethlehem
Where our dear Saviour lay,
They found Him in a manger,
Where oxen feed on hay;
His Mother Mary kneeling down,
Unto the Lord did pray.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

Now to the Lord sing praises,
All you within this place,
And with true love and brotherhood
Each other now embrace;
This holy tide of Christmas
All other doth deface.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

Bati nami'y Merry Christmas

OPM- Simbang Gabi

Simbang Gabi
Parokya ni Edgar

uploaded by cathcath.com

Anong oras na ba? Magfo-four o'clock na yata!
Maguumaga na, bagsak pa ang aking mata
Kahit inaantok pa ko, pipilitin kong maligo,
Matagal maginit ng tubig mamatay na sa lamig!
*Excited na ako Siyempre dahil sa'yo
Kasama na naman kita Hanggang sa mag-umaga
Simbang Gabi! Magsi-simbang Gabi kami!
Masarap, malamig ang hangin Masarap din maglambing
Magkayakap magdamagan Hindi ka bibitawan
Ililibre pa kita ng bagong luto na bibingka
Tapos maglalakad pauwi, bukas nanaman uli!

OPM-Christmas Songs-Let It Snow


Let It Snow

Imago
uploaded by cathcath.com
Oh the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I've bought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

When we finally kiss goodnight
How I'll hate going out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm

The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still goodbying
But as long as you love me so
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
Let It Snow Let It Snow Let It Snow
Let It Snow Let It Snow Let It ..... Snow

Dagdagan mo pa ng kendi,

At bohita habang lalong

Regalo mo’y dagdagan

OPM- A Perfect Christmas

A Perfect Christmas
by Jose Mari Chan


I:
My idea of a perfect Christmas
Is to spend it with you
In a party
Or dinner for two
Anywhere would do
Celebrating the yuletide season
Always lights up our lives
Simple pleasures are made special too
When their shared with you

II:
Looking through some old photographs
Faces of friends we'll always remember
Watching busy shoppers rushing about
In the cool breeze of December
Sparkling lights, all over town
Children's carols in the air
By the Christmas tree
A shower of stardust on your hair

chorus:

I cant think of a better Christmas
Than my wish coming true
And my wish is you'd let me spend my whole life with you
repeat II

Tuloy na Tuloy Pa Rin ang Pasko


Composed by:
ITO RAPADAS

Lyrics by:
ITO RAPADAS





uploaded by cathcath.com



O bakit kaya tuwing Pasko ay
dumarating na
ang bawa’t isa’y para bang
namomroblema
hindi mo alam ang regalong ibibigay
ngayong kay hirap na nitong ating buhay

Meron pa kayang caroling at noche buena
kung tayo naman ay kapos at wala nang pera
nakakahiya kung muling pagtaguan mo
ang ‘yong mga inaanak sa araw ng Pasko.

[refrain]
Ngunit kahit na anong mangyari
ang pag-ibig sana’y maghari
sapat nang si Hesus ang kasama mo
tuloy na tuloy parin ang pasko

Mabuti pa nga ang Pasko noong isang taon
sa ating hapag mayroong keso de bola’t hamon
baka sa gipit, Happy New Year mapo-postpone
at ang hamon ay mauuwi sa bagoong

[refrain]
Ngunit kahit na anong mangyari
ang pag-ibig sana’y maghari
sapat nang si Hesus ang kasama mo
tuloy na tuloy parin ang pasko

(Instrumental)

[refrain]
Ngunit kahit na anong mangyari
ang pag-ibig sana’y maghari
sapat nang si Hesus ang kasama mo
tuloy na tuloy parin ang pasko

[coda]
Tuloy na tuloy pa rin (Tuloy na tuloy pa rin)
tuloy na tuloy pa rin (Tuloy na tuloy pa rin)
tuloy na tuloy pa rin ang Pasko
tuloy na tuloy pa rin ang Pasko

Pagkaing Pinoy-Laing


I am from Bicol and this is our "national dish" Laing or Ginataang Dahon ng Gabi.

Gabi or taro is a versatile plant which leaves and stalks are cooked in coconut milk while the tuber (taro root crop) is cooked as sweets or desserts or can be used in vegetable dishes as well.

This is the recipe of the family.

Ginataang Dahon ng Gabi (Gabi Leaves with Coconut Milk)
(Laing)
Lutong Bikolano
Sangkap: (Ingredients)
  • 20 tuyong dahon ng gabi,gayatin o himayin

(US residents can buy from
Filipino store, ready-to-cook-taro leaves packed in a plastic bag.
If you buy the gabi leaves with stems, let the bundle dry first. Fresh
leaves are not ideal for laing. There is a substance in the leaves and stalk
which make the throat itches. The stems may be included as long as they
are thoroughly dry, peeled and cut into half inch-size).

  • 1/2 lb. pork (My mom used pork with little fat, diced in small pieces. If she used already cooked meat, she shreds them into small pieces).
  • 1/2 lb. shrimp. (shelled) (small shrimps)I substitute hibe(dried naked
shrimps or the precooked shrimps that can be bought from the Oriental stores).
  • 1 medium size ginger root.(before cutting it into strips, I peel and crush it first)
  • siling labuyo (red pepper) (optional)(we usually put the crushed pepper before serving.There may be members of the family who do not want spicy laing).
  • pamintang buo (peppercorns)

  • 2 tbsps. bagoong (2 tbsps of shrimp paste)(optional)(For apartment and
    conduminium dwellers, cooking with bagoong is discouraged. I substitute patis).
  • 3 tasang gata ng niyog (3 cups of coconut milk)(US residents can buy the canned coconut milk or the frozen grated coconut. For the grated coconut, remember to set aside the first from the extraction, kakanggata ).
  • 1 kutsarang cooking oil (1 tbsp. of cooking oil).
  • 1/2 tasang tubig ( 1 cup water)
  • crushed garlic
    Instructions:

    1. Put the diced pork in a deep skillet. Put water, enough to cover the meat.Cover and let boil for a few minutes or until the meat is cooked. Add water if necessary.

    2. When water has dried up,wait until the meat is a little brown. Put the cooking oil and stir on a slow fire. Add the crushed garlic and continue stirring until the garlic turns brown. Add the ginger and the shrimp.

    3. Pour the two cups of coconut milk into the skillet. Do not cover. Stir occassionally so that
    the coconut milk will not coagulate or form bubbles. Add the peppercorn.

    4. Add the gabi leaves when the coconut milk is boiling. Let it cook until the coconut milk is almost dried up. (Dry gabi leaves absorb the coconut milk).

    5. Add the last cup of coconut milk( This is the kakanggata, the first to be extracted from grated coconut) and the shrimp paste or patis to taste.

    Continue cooking until the coconut milk has dried up.

Regine Velasquez-Say that You Love Me

Say that you love me

Regine Velasquez


"Say That You Love Me"
(Louie Ocampo/Allen Ayque)
uploaded by cathcath.com
My morning starts to shine
With teardrops in my eyes
And here I am alone starting to realize
That my days would be brighter
If I could learn to hide
The feeling that I have for you
Keeps haunting me inside

Then my days begin
With simple thoughts of you
Hoping that tomorrow will be me and you
Sharing dreams with each other
And making them come true
Holding one another, saying all I need is you

But will you say that you love me
And show me that you care
Say when I need you
You will always be there
But if you go and leave me
This I swear is true
My love will always be with you

Now my nights would end
With just one wish, that's you
To hold me in the dark
And help me make it through
'Cause the pain that's inside me
Would simply melt away
If I had you here with me
And promise me you'd stay

But will you say that you love me
And show me that you care
Say when I need you
You will always be there
But if you go and leave me
This I swear is true
My love will always be with you

Pagkaing Pinoy-Ginataang Tilapia

picture of tilapia

The genus name Tilapia is a latinisation of the Tswana word for "fish", thiape,coined by Scottish zoologist Andrew Smith in 1840. Some species of tilapia are called St. Peter's fish from the account in the Christian Bible about Peter catching a fish that carried a shekel coin in its mouth. Restaurants and food producers often avoid using tilapia name and instead refer to the fish as whitefish or perch; this is especially common in Europe and the U.S. where consumers are often unfamiliar with tilapia as a food fish.

Ginataang Tilapia -Tilapia Cooked in Coconut Milk
Sangkap:
• 6 pieces small Tilapia (gutted and scaled )
• 3 pcs of crushed garlic
• 1 medium size red onion (cut into 4 pcs)
• 1 green pepper (sliced)
• 1 small ginger (crushed and diced)
• 1 big eggplant (cut into eight pieces)
• 1/2 cup squash (cut in thin slices)
• salt to taste
• 2 cups of coconut milk
. peppercorn
• 1/2 cup of vinegar
. 2 pcs of bayleaf

Cooking instruction:

1. Place the tilapia on top of the eggplant, onion, garlic, bayleaf and squash in a saucepan.
2. Pour the first cup of coconut milk. Cook until the combined ingredients are half-cooked.

3. Add the second cup of coconut milk, cup of vinegar and salt to taste.
Let it simmer until cooked or until only a little coconut milk is left.
