Paroles et traduction Joey Ayala - Awit Ng Magdaragat

Awit Ng Magdaragat

Tinawid ng ninuno ko ang karagatan
Dumaong sa aplaya, nagtatag ng tahanan
Umibig at inibig at nabuhay ang angkan
Ng magdaragat

Dumaan ang panahon, at ngayon, heto ako
Tahanan ay aplaya tulad ng aking ninuno
Na-pukot ng pag-ibig, may pamilya't inapo
Ng magdaragat

Nakalulan -- sa paraw ng kasaysayan
Lumalayag -- sa agos ng panahon
Lumulutang -- sa kandungan ng alon
Ito ang buhay magdaragat

Buhay ay nababago ayon sa pangitain
Kay raming mga hamon at kay raming gagawin
Magpayabong ng buhay at siyang aanihin
Ng magdaragat

Magmasid, magbantay
Magpayabong ng buhay
Magmasid, magbantay
Magpayabong ng buhay

Ito ang buhay magdaragat

Song of the Seafarer

My ancestor crossed the ocean
Landed on the beach, made a home
Fell in love and was loved and the family lived
Of seafarers

Time passed, and now, here I am
Home is the beach like my ancestors
Caught by love, family and descendants
Of seafarers

Sitting -- in the boat of history
Sailing -- in the currents of time
Floating -- in the bosom of the waves
This is the life of a seafarer

Life is changing according to the vision
There are many challenges and many things to do
Enrich life and it will be reaped
Of seafarers

Observe, watch
Enrich life
Observe, watch
Enrich life

This is the life of a seafarer
