Kitchie Nadal - Huwag Na Huwag Mong Sasabihin... (English translation)

English

Translation

Never Ever Tell...

Do you want to say something

Why are you restless

Why cannot you look at me

I hope you will not just let this pass

And try to fix

What you have said, that I deserve someone else

That I will truly love

Ohhh, never ever tell me

That you never felt this love of mine, for which I am willing to sacrifice even your freedom

Whatever people may think

That I am a star

That will worship nothing1

I may not show this

But I ask the skies2

What you have said, that I deserve someone else

That I will truly love

Ohhh, never ever tell me

That you never felt this love of mine, for which I am willing to sacrifice even your freedom

And in the night

Who will lull you to sleep3

And in the morning

The wind that will caress you?

Ohhh, never ever tell me

That you never felt this love of mine, for which I am willing to sacrifice even your freedom

Ohhh

Ohhh, never ever tell me

That you never felt this love of mine, for which I am willing to sacrifice even your freedom

1. The world "wala" could mean "nothing" or "no one"
2. Literally "my cries reach the skies"
3. The word "duyan" literally means "hammock," where someone would to go sleep. "Duduyan" means "will sway a hammock" but because that is a nuanced and wordy translation the translator has instead decided to use "lull" because it serves the same purpose i.e. to put one to sleep.
