[ENG] BATA, DAHAN-DAHAN! lyrics by IV Of Spades

Bata dahan-dahan

Kid, slow down

Sa mundong kinagagalawan

In this world we live in

Pagmasdan ang larawan

Look at the image

Ng hitsurang nagmamalakas

Of the one pretending to be strong

‘Di pwedeng mabulag

Can’t be blinded

Makinig sa tamang tinig

Listen to the right voice

Wala kang mapapala

You won’t get anything from

Sa taong walang kahulugan

A nonsense person

‘Wag hahayaang magaya sa iba

Don’t let yourself be like others

Kawalang-sala

Innocent

Halika na’t tuklasin

Come with me, discover

Ang mundong puno ng isip hangin

The world full of ego

Bata, napa’no ka?

Kid, what happened to you?

Duguan, luhaan, nasaktan,

Bloody, Tearful, Hurt

sugatan ang kamay

Wounded fist

‘Di alam ang gagawin

Don’t know what to do

Pwede bang magpalaya ka ng

Can you please let go

mga takot sa iyong isip

Of all the fears inside your head

na pilit dinidikit ng kamatayan

That is being touched by death

‘Di ka nag-iisa

You’re not alone

Sa munting palaruan

In a small playground

Ang bata ay tumatanda

A kid gets older

Nadadapa, nangangapa

Falls, struggles

Nanatiling mag-isa

Prefers to be alone

Ang iyong tanging panalangin

Your only prayer

 ‘Di mawawala

Will never go away

Bata, Dahan-Dahan!

Kid, slow down!
