Anak (the original)

The classic of all classics.
The song that reminds me of my late Lola Nating, Mama Luz, Papa Titing.

The hard times my parents experienced in their child hood days. I think this song illustrates that generation. And it also ushers truth to the present.

Lyrics

Nang isilang ka sa mundong ito
Laking tuwa ng magulang mo
At ang kamay nila ang iyong ilaw
At ang nanay at tatay mo'y
Di malaman ang gagawin
Minamasdan pati pagtulog mo
At sa gabi'y napupuyat ang iyong nanay
Sa pagtimpla ng gatas mo
At sa umaga nama'y kalong ka
Ng iyong amang tuwang-tuwa sa iyo

Ngayon nga ay malaki ka na
Nais mo'y maging malaya
Di man sila payag
Walang magagawa
Ikaw nga ay biglang nagbago
Naging matigas ang iyong ulo

At ang payo nila'y sinuway mo
Di mo man lang inisip na
Ang kanilang ginagawa'y para sa iyo
Pagkat ang nais mo'y
Masunod ang layaw mo
Di mo sila pinapansin

Nagdaan pa ang mga araw
At ang landas mo'y naligaw
Ikaw ay nalulong sa masamang bisyo
At ang una mong nilapitan
Ang iyong inang lumuluha
At ang tanong,"anak, ba't ka nagkaganyan"
At ang iyong mata'y biglang lumuha ng di mo pinapansin
Nagsisisi at sa isip mo'y
Nalaman mong ika'y nagkamali
Nagsisisi at sa isip mo'y
Nalaman mong ika'y nagkamali
Nagsisisi at sa isip mo'y
Nalaman mong ika'y nagkamali
Nagsisisi at sa isip mo'y
Nalaman mong ika'y nagkamali

Ms. Orchids, powerful kaayo 'ning kantaha, no? The lyrics of this song is so deep; painfully deep.

This song, is the song of Filipino parents.
Mama
Papa
Ina
Ama
Tatay
Nanay
Mommy
Daddy

Whatever we call them, this song is for them. Their yearnings, and their dream in their children.

I cannot help but shed a tear when I hear this song. When I hear this song, I think about the life story of my Papa Titing, Mama Luz--the parents of my father. :'( I can't help but cry, uy, because all that I can see is how poor they were in their childhood. My late Papa Titing was from a very very poor family in Leyte--ning anhi siya sa Bohol througha pumpboat when he was only 8 years old. Can you imagine? At such an age he left his family to survive--to get out of Pintuyan Island.

Na luuy lang pood ang Ginoo niya, naka kuha siya ug job, sa business. Ning work siya intawn sa merkado, selling goods as a boy-boy. Na luuy pood ang Ginoo naka successful pood ahong Papa Titing in what he did. Gi hatagan siya ug grasya sa Ginoo--ning minyoo siya sa ahong Mama Luz. And naka anak sila ug 7 children. My father was their eldest born.

My father would tell me his family story--luuy kaayo sila. This song--is the only emotional way that I can digest everything in. Even though I was never alive to see my Papa Titing (he died in 1979, May the Lord God bless his soul, grant my Papa Titing eternal rest and peace, O Lord), yet I can see him, Ms. Orchids.

This song breaks my heart--it cuts it and allows me to cry--and to visualize my Papa Titing. In my mind, I can see him dancing, laughing, I can see him carrying my Dad, I can see him dancing with my Mama Luz. I can hear his laughter, even though I never met him. :'(
Maka hilak pood ko ani, pero this song is so powerful. Beautiful kaayo ang lyrics.

Ms. Orchids, sorry lang ko kaayo kai wa ka naka meet sa imong papa. :'(
