Paroles et traduction Yeng Constantino - Tahimik

Tahimik

Sabi nila′y duwag daw ang katulad kong
Hindi maamin ang nadarama para sa katulad mo
Pero 'di ba mas matapang ang umibig nang ′di naghihintay
Ng kapalit, at ng sukli, kahit sobra ang ibinigay?

Tatahimik na lang at mamahalin kita
Kahit na masakit, hindi na iimik pa
Mabuti nang hindi mo na lang malaman
Kaysa marinig ko sa'yo
'Di mo kayang mahalin ang katulad ko
Tatahimik na lang ang pag-ibig ko
Para sa′yo, para sa′yo

Kulang ko na lang sabihin, ako na ang martir ng taon
Pero 'di nila maintindihan na okey na ′ko sa gano'n
Ang umibig at lumuha para sa isang tulad mong
Kahanga-hanga, kaibig-ibig, kahit wala namang napapala

Tatahimik na lang at mamahalin kita
Kahit na masakit, hindi na iimik pa
Mabuti nang hindi mo na lang malaman
Kaysa marinig pa sa′yong
'Di mo kayang mahalin ang katulad ko
Tatahimik na lang ang pag-ibig ko
Para sa′yo, para sa'yo

Pero 'di ba mas matapang ang umibig nang ′di naghihintay
Ng kapalit, at ng sukli, kahit sobra ang ibigay?

Tatahimik na lang at mamahalin kita
Kahit na masakit, hindi na iimik pa
Mabuti nang hindi mo na lang malaman
Kaysa marinig pa sa′yong
'Di mo kayang mahalin ang katulad ko
Tatahimik na lang ang pag-ibig ko
Para sa′yo

Tatahimik na lang

Quiet

They say I'm a coward for not
Being able to admit my feelings for you
But isn't it more courageous to love without expecting
Anything in return, even when I've given so much?

I'll just stay quiet and love you
Even if it hurts, I won't say a word
It's better for you not to know
Than to hear you say
'You can't love someone like me
I'll just keep my love a secret
For you, for you

I might as well be the martyr of the year
But they don't understand that I'm okay with that
To love and cry for someone like you
Is amazing, wonderful, even if it doesn't lead to anything

I'll just stay quiet and love you
Even if it hurts, I won't say a word
It's better for you not to know
Than to hear you say
'You can't love someone like me
I'll just keep my love a secret
For you, for you

But isn't it more courageous to love without expecting
Anything in return, even when I've given so much?

I'll just stay quiet and love you
Even if it hurts, I won't say a word
It's better for you not to know
Than to hear you say
'You can't love someone like me
I'll just keep my love a secret
For you

I'll just stay quiet
