Handog - Sarah Geronimo

Parang kailan lang

Ang mga pangarap ko’y kay hirap abutin

Dahil sa inyo

Narinig ang isip ko at naintindihan

Kaya’t itong awiting aking inaawit

Nais ko’y kayo ang handugan

Parang kailan lang

Halos ako ay magpalimos sa lansangan

Dahil sa inyo

Ang aking tiyan at ang bulsa’y nagkalaman

Nais ko kayong pasalamatan

Kahit man lang isang awitin

Tatanda at lilipas din ako

Nguni’t mayroong awiting

Iiwanan sa inyong ala-ala

Dahil, minsan, tayo’y nagkasama

Parang kailan lang

Ang mga awitin ko ay ayaw pakinggan

Dahil sa inyo

Narinig ang isip ko at naintindihan

Dahil dito’y ibig ko kayong

Ituring na matalik kong kaibigan

It seems like only recently

My dreams are hard to come by

Because of you

My mind heard and understood

That's why I'm singing this song

I want your gift

It seems like only recently

I almost begged on the street

Because of you

My stomach and pockets are full

I want to thank you

At least one song

I will grow old and pass away too

But there is a song

It will be left in your memory

Because, once upon a time, we were together

It seems like only recently

My songs don’t want to be listened to

Because of you

My mind heard and understood

Because of this I love you

Consider him my best friend
