Текст и перевод песни Noel Cabangon - Batang-Bata Ka Pa

Batang-Bata Ka Pa

Batang-bata ka pa at marami ka pang
Kailangang malaman at intindihin sa mundo
Yan ang totoo
Nagkakamali ka kung akala mo na ang buhay
Ay isang mumunting paraiso lamang

Batang-bata ka lang at akala mo na na alam
Mo na ang lahat na kailangan mong malaman
Buhay ay di ganyan
Tanggapin mo na lang ang katotohanan na ikaw
Ay isang musmos lang na wala pang alam
Makinig ka na lang makinig ka na lang

Ganyan talaga ang buhay lagi kang nasasabihan
Pagkat ikaw ay bata at wala pang nalalaman
Makinig ka sa 'king payo pagkat musmos ka lamang
At malaman ng maaga ang wasto sa kamalian

Batang-bata ako nalalaman ko 'to
Inamin ko rin na kulang ang aking nalalaman at nauunawaan
Ngunit kahit ganyan ang kinalalagyan alam
Ko na may karapatan ang bawat nilalang
Kahit bata pa man kahit bata pa man

Nais ko sanang malaman ang mali sa katotohanan
Sariling pagraranas ang aking pamamagitan
Imulat ang isipan sa mga kulay ng buhay
Maging tunay na malaya sa katangi-tanging bata

Batang-bata ka pa at marami ka pang
Kailangang malaman at intindihin sa mundo
Nais ko sanang malaman ang mali sa katotohanan
Batang-bata ka lang at akala mo na na alam mo
Na ang lahat na kailangan mong malaman
Sariling pagraranas ang aking pamamagitan
Nagkakamali ka kung akala mo na ang buhay
Ay isang mumunting paraiso lamang

You're Still a Child

You're still a child and you have many things
You need to learn and understand in the world
That's the truth
You're wrong if you think that life
Is only a small paradise

You're just a child and you think you know
That you know everything you need to know
Life is not like that
Just accept the fact that you
Are just a child who still doesn't know anything
Just listen, just listen

That's how life is, you're always being told
Because you're a child and you don't know anything
Listen to my advice because you're just a child
And learn early on what's right and wrong

I'm still a child, but I know this
I admit that my knowledge and understanding are lacking
But even though that's where I am, I know
That every creature has rights
Even if it's just a child, even if it's just a child

I want to know what's wrong with the truth
My own experience is my means
Opening my mind to the colors of life
To be truly free as a special child

You're still a child and you have many things
You need to learn and understand in the world
I want to know what's wrong with the truth
You're just a child and you think you know
That you know everything you need to know
My own experience is my means
You're wrong if you think that life
Is only a small paradise
La la la oh
La la la oh (fade)
