Bangon by Rico Blanco:A song Dedicated For The Victims of Typhoon Ondoy and Pepeng
Friday, October 16th, 2009Please check out this song! It’s cool! An original Filipino song dedicated to the heroism and strong faith of all Filipino victims and rescuers. A tribute to the “Filipino Soul” with very inspiring messages in it. I hope this inspirational song would help mend the wounded hearts and sorrows of all the victims of the super twin typhoons that hit our poor country Philippines.
The song was composed by one of the famous Filipino alternative Rock singer Rico Blanco and this is what he said about his masterpiece.
“Countless Filipinos have heroically gone out of their way to help our brothers and sisters in this time of need. This is just my humble contribution as a singer and musician. I hope, in my own little way, I can help raise additional funds for our countrymen affected by the typhoons, and perhaps give a little boost to their morale to help them get back on their feet again.”
I am offering a completely new song, ‘Bangon’ as a free download here-.Please feel free to make your own video using the song.
LYRICS:
pinaluhod tayo,
sa isang hagupit
niragasa, sinalanta,
pinaluha
humupa ang unos, isang bahaghari!
dala ng bukang liwayway-
pag-ibig
pagkakaisa
BANGON
pilipinas kong mahal
akay ang pananampalataya sa may kapal
AHON
buhay sa yong dugo
ang tibay na tatak ng tunay na Pilipino
at nagising ang bayanihan
milyon milyon naging isa
walang kami
walang kayo
walang sila
tanging ligaya
ay pag alay ng sarili sa iba
BANGON
pilipinas kong mahal
akay ng pananampalataya sa may kapal
AHON
taglay ng yong dugo
ang tibay na tatak ng tunay na Pilipino
bridge:
hindi ka namin iiwan
hindi tayo susuko!
lulusong tayo’t magtatagumpay
magtatagumpay!
BANGON
pilipinas kong mahal
akay ang pananampalataya sa may kapal
AHON
buhay sa yong dugo
ang tibay na tatak ng tunay na Pilipino
coda:
lahat nitong mga pagsubok
ay ating kayang lagpasan
lahat nitong mga pagsubok
ay ating kayang lagpasan
