Nandito Ako
I. Mayroon akong nais malaman,
Ma-aari bang magtanong?
Alam mo bang
Matagal na kitang ini-ibig,
Matagal na'kong naghihintay.
Ref: Ngunit mayroon ka nang minamahal,
Kung kaya't ako'y 'di mo pinapansin.
Ngunit ganoon pa man, nais kong malaman mo,
Ang puso kong ito'y para lang sa'yo.
Chorus: Nandito ako
Umi-ibig sa'yo, kahit na nag-durugo ang puso.
At kung sakaling iwanan ka niya,
Huwag kang mag-alala, may nag-mamahal sa'yo.
Nandito ako.
II. Kung ako ay iyong iibigin
'Di kailangan nang mangamba.
'Pagkat ako ay para mong alipin.
Sa'yo lang wala nang iba.
Repeat refrain.
Repeat chorus twice.
Nandito ako... (fade)
English Translation of "Nandito Ako"
I don't like translating things, this song especially. Way too many things get lost in the translation. This song has such a sweet, sad
melody with a heartbreakingly selfless message. But I guess those who can't understand Tagalog will not be able to know the
message now, will they? This is for them...
I Am Here
I. There's something I wanted to know,
Is it okay to ask?
Do you know
I've been loving you for so long.
I've been waiting for so long.
Ref: But you already have someone to love.
That is why you never notice me.
But even so, I want you to know
That this heart of mine is only for you.
Chorus: I am here
Loving you, even if my heart bleeds.
Just in case s/he leaves you,
Don't be bothered, someone's loving you,
I am here.
II. If you were to love me,
You'd never need to worry.
Because I will be like your [love] slave.
Only yours and noone else.
Repeat refrain.
Repeat chorus twice.
I am here... (fade)
