Charice sings Maghintay Ka Lamang

IN A concert shown on GMA-7 entitled, Charice: Home for Valentines, Charice sang this beautiful song written by Vehnee Saturno and originally performed by Ted Ito. This, for me, is one of Charice's best performances.

Charice - Maghintay Ka Lamang

Maghintay Ka Lamang Lyrics

Vehnee Saturno

Kung hindi ngayon ang panahon, na para sa iyo
Huwag maiinip, dahil ganyan ang buhay sa mundo
Huwag mawawalan ng pag-asa, darating din ang ligaya
Ang isipin mo'y may bukas pa,na may roong saya


II

Kabigua'y hindi hadlang, upang tumakas ka
Huwag kang iiwas, pag-nabibigo
Dapat nga lumaban ka....


( Chorus )

Ang kaylangan mo'y, tibay ng loob
Kung mayrong pag-subok man
Ang liwanag ay di magtatagal,
At muling mamamasdan
Iko't ng mundo, ay hindi laging pighati't kasawian
Ang pangarap mo ay makakamtam,
Basta't maghintay ka lamang

Maghintay Ka Lamang Lyrics - English
