Tagalog Song OPM -BE MY LADY

BE MY LADY

Martin Nievera

Be my lady
Come to me and take my hand and be my lady
Truly I must let you know that I'm in love with you
All I want is you, how I need you, so please...

Be my lady
Maybe you could lose the pain if you just tell me
Say the words you long to whisper that I want to hear
Something's on your mind, is it hidden in your smile

Be my lady
Just forget the past it's time to mend your broken heart
No walls divide us now so dry the tears in your eyes
Nothing can stop us now, I'll give you all I have

Be my lady
You're the one that I adore, so please believe me
I can never find the courage to resist your charm
Nothing's more divine than each moment you are mine

Be my lady
Just forget the past it's time to mend
your broken heart
No walls divide us now so dry the tears in your eyes
Nothing can stop us now, I'll give you all I have

Be my lady
Let the sunshine through your heart
and make a brand new start
Stay with me each night and day
through the rest of my life
Just like a work of art,
my love will last until forever
Just like a work of art,
my love will last forever.

Visayan Folk Song 1

Ay ay Kalisud
(Ilonggo folk song)
Music arranged by
Jovita Fuentes


Ay ay kalisud, kalisud ng binayaan
Adlao gabi firmita itao gui natangisan
Ay ay Inday nga walay sing kapalaran
Walay guid walay guid
Sarang ko kalipayan

Ay cielo azul iabao! diin ka na
Baluiguita bangi ang nabilango sang gugma
Mayad pa ang mamatay kun halus mamatay
Agud di ako maka dumdum
Nga ako walay kalipay.

Ilocano folk song 1

Manang Biday

The song is is addressed to a woman that the man is courting although he calls her manang, it does not necessarily mean she is older than he is. He is asking her to look outside the window to see how he is madly in love with her.

Manang Biday, ilukatmo man
'Ta bintana ikalumbabam
Ta kitaem 'toy kinayawan
Ay, matayakon no dinak kaasian

Siasinnoka nga aglabaslabas
Ditoy hardinko pagay-ayamak
Ammom ngarud a balasangak
Sabong ni lirio, di pay nagukrad

Denggem, ading, ta bilinenka
Ta inkanto 'diay sadi daya
Agalakanto't bunga't mangga
Ken lansones pay, adu a kita

No nababa, imo gaw-aten
No nangato, dika sukdalen
No naregreg, dika piduten
Ngem labaslabasamto met laeng

Daytoy paniok no maregregko
Ti makapidut isublinanto
Ta nagmarka iti naganko
Nabordaan pay ti sinanpuso

Alaem dayta kutsilio
Ta abriem 'toy barukongko
Tapno maipapasmo ti guram
Kaniak ken sentimiento.

Leron, Leron Sinta


This is an invitation of a man to a woman to go with her to gather fruits. In the end he asked her to love him because he is a brave man especially if his enemy is a bowl of noodles.

uploaded by cathcath.com

Leron, leron sinta
Buko ng papaya,
Dala-dala’y buslo,
Sisidlan ng sinta,
Pagdating sa dulo’y
Nabali ang sanga
Kapos kapalaran,
Humanap ng iba.

Gumising ka, Neneng,
Tayo’y manampalok,
Dalhin mo ang buslong
Sisidlan ng hinog.
Pagdating sa dulo’y
Lalamba-lambayog,

Kumapit ka, neneng,
Baka ka mahulog.
Ako’y ibigin mo’t
Lalaking matapang,
Ang baril ko’y pito,
Ang sundang ko’y siyam
Ang sundang ko’y siyam
Parte ng dinulang
Isang pinggang pansit
Ang aking kalaban.
