Magda - Gloc 9, Gloc-9, Rico Blanco

Magdalena, ano’ng problema

Bakit ‘di ka makawala sa kadena?

At sa gabi gabi ikaw ay nasa selda

Na hanap buhay mo ngayon

Magdalena, ano’ng problema

Alam naman natin na dati kang nena

At sa iyong ama ikaw ay prinsesa

Ano’ng nangyari sa’yo?

Ito’y kwento ng isang babaeng

Tulog sa umaga, gising sa gabi

Ang kanyang mukha’y puno ng kolorete

Sa lugar na ang ilaw ay patay sindi

Simulan na natin ang istorya

Ako’y kanyang matalik na kaibigan, Ernesto ang aking pangalan

Kwentong dapat ‘nyong malaman, ‘wag nang magbulag bulagan

Bakit ang nais natin ay malaman ang baho ng iba?

Pagbibigyan kita, kilala mo ba si Magda?

Na aking kababata mula pa ng pagkabata

Kami lagi magkasama mga bangkang papel sa sapa

Kanyang ngiti lumiliwanag ang paligid

At pag siya’y dumadaan mga leeg ay pumipilipit

Ubod ng ganda noong siya ay nagdalaga

Tuwing kausap ko na malimit akong tulala

Kahit may nararamdaman pinilit kong isara

Ang bibig at pintig ng puso sa kanya

At sa sayawan matapos kaming makapagtapos

Dahil pinawis ang mukha ako’y nagpunas ng pulbos

Kahit parang hindi pantay ay nagmamadaling hinila

Pinakilala niya lalaki na taga Maynila

Magdalena ano’ng problema

Bakit ‘di ka makawala sa kadena?

At sa gabi gabi ikaw ay nasa selda

Na hanap buhay mo ngayon

Magdalena ano’ng problema

Alam naman natin na dati kang nena

At sa iyong ama ikaw ay prinsesa

Ano’ng nangyari sa’yo?

Maraming taon ako’y nalipasan, pinilit ko mang takasan

Bagkus ay aking nalaman ang tunay kong kailangan

‘Di ko maibaling ang pagtingin ko sa iba

Minamahal ko s’ya, hahanapin ko si Magda

Lumuwas habang nagdarasal na maabutan

Sa lugar na ang sabi’y kanyang pinagtatrabahuhan

Nakita ko’ng larawan niya na nakadikit sa pintuan

Iba man ang kulay ng buhok ‘di ko malilimutan

Ang kanyang mata at tamis ng kanyang ngiti

At dahil ubod ng saya hindi na nag atubili

Agad pumasok sa silid pero bakit ang dilim

Madaming lamesa’t mga nag-iinumang lasing

Nang biglang nagpalakpakan may mabagal na kanta

Sa maliit na entablado ay nakita ko na

Ako ay nagtaka, nagtanong, nagkamot:

Bakit s’ya sumasayaw na sapatos lang ang suot?

Ito’y kwento ng isang babaeng

Tulog sa umaga, gising sa gabi

Ang kanyang mukha’y puno ng kolorete

Sa lugar na ang ilaw ay patay sindi

Ituloy natin ang istorya

Agad siyang sumama sa’kin walang kakabakaba

Ang trato niya sa’kin ay nobyo tila katakataka

Bumaba sa taxi-ng pinara sa Sta.

Mesa

Parang ako’y bida sa mga sumunod na eksena

Kung ito ay panaginip ayoko nang magising

Ngunit ako’y nanaginip umaga na nang magising

Ang naabutan ko lamang ay may sobre sa lapag

Liham para sa’kin na isinulat niya magdamag

Kahit gulong gulo ang isip pinilit kong basahin

‘Di malilimutan ang mga sinabi niya sa akin

Mahal kong Ernesto, alam kong tulog mo’y malalim

‘Di na ‘ko nagpaalam ‘di na kita ginising

Salamat nga pala sa pasalubong mong kalamay

At sa pinakamasayang gabi ng aking buhay

Nung iniwan ko ang baryo natin ang akala ko

Isang tunay na pag-ibig ang matatagpuan ko

Hinanap kung saan-saan at kung kani-kanino

‘Di ko inakalang ito ang kahahantungan ko

Imbis na ako’y sagipin itinulak sa bangin

Ito pala’ng ibig sabihin ng kapit sa patalim

Kung mabaho sabunin, kung makati gamutin

Kung hindi na masikmura ay ibaling ang tingin

Kahit ako ay bayaran at kaladkaring babaeng

Alam ang amoy ng laway ng iba’t-ibang lalaki

Isa lang ang kaya kong sayo’y maipagmalaki:

Ikaw lang ang bukod tanging hinalikan ko sa labi

Gusto ko mang manatili sa’yong mga yakap

Ako may natutuwa dahil ako’y iyong nahanap

Wala na yatang walis ang makakalinis ng kalat

At ang katulad ko sa’yo ay ‘di karapat-dapat

Pinangarap kong sa altar ako’y iyong ihatid

Ngunit sa dami ng pait, ang puso ko’y namanhid

‘Di ko makakalimutan ang pabaon mong halik

Pero pakiusap huwag ka na sana pang babalik

Regalo ng Maykapal ang ikaw ay makilala

Salamat sa ala-ala

Nagmamahal, Magda

Magdalena, ano’ng problema

Bakit ‘di ka makawala sa kadena?

At sa gabi gabi ikaw ay nasa selda

Na hanap buhay mo ngayon

Magdalena, ano’ng problema

Alam naman natin na dati kang nena

At sa iyong ama ikaw ay prinsesa

Ano’ng nangyari sa’yo?

Ito’y kwento ng isang babae

Magdalena, what's the matter

Why can’t you get out of the chain?

And at night you are in the cell

That you find life now

Magdalena, what's the matter

We know you used to be a grandmother

And to your father you are a princess

What happened to you?

This is the story of a woman

Sleep in the morning, awake at night

Her face is full of lipstick

In the place where the light is off

Let's start the story

I am his best friend, my name is Ernesto

This is a story you should know, don't go blind

Why do we want to know the stench of others?

I'll give you, do you know Magda?

That has been my childhood since childhood

We always put together paper boats on the creek

His smile shines around

And when he passes by, his necks twist

It was so beautiful when she was a teenager

Every time I talk to him I am often an idiot

Even with a feeling I was forced to close

The mouth and heartbeat in him

And to the dancing after we graduated

Because my face was sweaty, I wiped the powder off

Even seemingly unequal is hurriedly pulled

He introduced a man from Manila

Magdalena what's the matter

Why can’t you get out of the chain?

And at night you are in the cell

That you find life now

Magdalena what's the matter

We know you used to be a grandmother

And to your father you are a princess

What happened to you?

Many years passed, even though I tried to run away

But I knew what I really needed

‘I can’t turn my gaze away from others

I love her, I will look for Magda

Exit while praying to be overtaken

In the place where he is said to work

I saw a picture of him on the door

Even if the hair color is different, I will never forget it

Her eyes and the sweetness of her smile

And because it was so much fun, he didn't hesitate

Immediately enter the room but why is it dark

Lots of tables and drunkards

When suddenly there was applause there was a slow song

On the small stage I saw that

I wondered, asked, scratched:

Why is she dancing in her shoes?

This is the story of a woman

Sleep in the morning, awake at night

Her face is full of lipstick

In the place where the light is off

Let's continue the story

He came with me right away without any worries

Her treatment of me as a boyfriend seems strange

Get off the taxi-ng pinara in Sta.

Mesa

I feel like a star in the following scenes

If it's a dream I don't want to wake up

But I had a dream when I woke up in the morning

All I could reach was an envelope on the floor

A letter to me that he wrote overnight

Even though the mind was a mess I forced myself to read

‘I will never forget what he told me

Dear Ernesto, I know you sleep soundly

‘I didn’t say goodbye’ we didn’t wake up

Thank you for your welcome

And on the worst night of my life

When I left our village I thought

A true love I will find

Searched where and to whom

‘I didn’t think this was my destiny

Instead of rescuing me, I was pushed into the abyss

This is what the knife holder means

If smelly soap, if itchy cure

If you don't feel bad, look away

Even I was paid and dragged

Know the smell of saliva of different men

There is only one thing I can be proud of:

You are the only one I kiss on the lips

I want to stay in your arms

I'm glad you found me

I don't think a broom can clean up the mess

And someone like you is unworthy

I dreamed that you would take me to the altar

But with the amount of bitterness, my heart went numb

‘I will never forget your kiss

But please don't come back

It is God's gift to know you

Thanks for the memory

Loving, Magda

Magdalena, what's the matter

Why can’t you get out of the chain?

And at night you are in the cell

That you find life now

Magdalena, what's the matter

We know you used to be a grandmother

And to your father you are a princess

What happened to you?

This is the story of a woman
