Naiilang by Le John | English Translation

[Verse 1]
Giliw
Love

Ikaw talaga ang nasa puso
You're really the one in my heart

Nabigla ka ba nito?
Did this surprise you?

Wala na siguro ang tiwala mo sa akin
I suppose your trust in me is gone

Pero sandali lang
But just wait a moment

[Pre-Chorus]
Alam ko naman, kaibigan tayo
I know, we're friends

Kasalanan bang mahulog sa 'yo?
Is it a sin to fall for you?

[Chorus]
Tumingin ka sa akin
Look at me

Gusto kong linawin
I want to clarify

Naiilang ka ba 'pag tayo lang dal'wa?
Do you feel awkward when it's just the two of us?

Sinasabi ko nga na atin ang mundo
I'm saying that the world is ours

Walang ibang tulad mo, woah
There's no one else like you, woah

[Verse 2]
Sabihin mo
Tell me

Kung iba ang kuwento natin
If our story is different

Iba rin ba ang nadarama?
Is the feeling different too?

Di ba ako'ng laman sa puso?
Aren't I the one your heart holds?

Handa na 'kong ibigay ang lahat sa 'yo, oh-woah (Oh, woah)
I'm ready to give everything to you, oh-woah (Oh, woah)

Kaya 'wag kang mangamba
So don't worry

[Pre-Chorus]
Alam ko naman, kaibigan tayo
I know, we're friends

Kasalanan bang mahulog sa 'yo?
Is it a sin to fall for you?

[Chorus]
Tumingin ka sa akin
Look at me

Gusto kong linawin
I want to clarify

Naiilang ka ba 'pag tayo lang dal'wa?
Do you feel awkward when it's just the two of us?

Sinasabi ko nga na atin ang mundo
I'm saying the world is ours

Walang ibang tulad mo
There's no one else like you

[Bridge]
Ah, ah, ah (Yeah)
Ah, ah, ah, ah

Pasensya na
I'm sorry

Di ko kayang pigilin ang puso
I can't restrain my heart

Ah, ah, ah (Oh-woah)
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Oh

[Chorus]
Tumingin ka sa akin
Look at me

Gusto kong linawin
I want to clarify

Naiilang ka ba 'pag tayo lang dal'wa? (Ooh)
Do you feel awkward when it's just the two of us?

Sinasabi ko nga na atin ang mundo (Ooh)
I'm saying the world is ours (Ooh)

Walang ibang tulad mo, woah-oh
There's no one else like you, woah-oh

'Di ba't ako'y mag-isa? Why am I worried? Aren't I alone? Kala ko'y payapa, boses mo'y tumatawag pa I thought it was peaceful, but your voice is still calling [Pre-Chorus] Binaon naman na ang lahat I've buried everything Tinakpan naman na 'king sugat I've covered my wounds Ngunit ba't ba andito pa rin?

[Verse 1] Alam kong mayro'ng dinadalang lungkot I know there’s a sadness you’re carrying Di na malaman ang nadarama, nadarama I don't know what I'm feeling anymore, what I'm feeling Sa huli, sana'y makita pang muli In the end, I hope to see once more Ang pungay ng 'yong matang gumaganda The soulfulness of your eyes as they grow more beautiful Nasa'n ka na?
