Yakap (Embrace) By Junior

Ako ay nagbalik
Sa init ng iyong yakap
Parang ibong sabik sa isang pugad

Nadanas kong lungkot
Nang kita'y aking iwan
Na di pa dinanas ng sinuman

Ako ay nagbalik
At muli kang nasilayan
Hindi na 'ko muli pang lilisan
Dahil kung ikaw ang yakap ko
Parang yakap ko ang langit
At yakap ko pati ang iyong ngiti

Init ng 'yong halik
Wala ng kasing init
Yakap pa rin nito yaring isip

Ako ay nagbalik at muli kang nasilayan
Hindi na 'ko muli pang lilisan
Dahil kung ikaw ang yakap ko
Parang yakap ko ang langit
At yakap ko pati
Ang 'yong ngiti...

Ohhhh

At muli kang nasilayan
Hindi na ko muli pang lilisan
Dahil kung ikaw ang yakap ko
Parang yakap ko ang langit
At yakap ko pati ang yong ngiti
Ang yong ngiti



English Translation

I have returned
The warmth of your embrace
Like an eager bird missing its nest

I felt sadness
When I left you
Sadness that haven't suffered by anyone

I have returned
And again saw you
I won't leave anymore
Because if I hug you
It is like hugging heaven
And embracing your smile

Your kiss is the warmest
And it is still etched in my mind
Its sweetness

I have returned
And again saw you
I won't leave anymore
Because if I hug you
It is like hugging heaven
And embracing your smile

Ohhhh

I have returned
And again saw you
I won't leave anymore
Because if I hug you
It is like hugging heaven
And embracing your smile

 

 

How I Wish You Were Mine - By Regine Velasquez & Mark Anthony Fernandez

From the moment I first heard this song, I googled its lyrics, since I thought that this was a remake of an old song. It turned out that it was an original and has not been released in the market yet.

Last January, GMA-7 ran a music writing competition for the telemovie "Diva", and this song, "How I Wish You Were Mine", won first place. I just don't know who its composer was.
