Song Lyrics #1: Malinak Lay Labi

1	Malinak     lay     labi,     Oras     lay     mare’en
	silent          det     night    hour    det      still.static
	'The night is calm and quiet, the hour stands still'
2	Mapalpalnay dagem,      Katekep         toy     linaew.
	smooth          wind        accompanied   by    dew drop
	'Slowly flows the breeze, and dewdrops gently fall'
3	Samit     day     kugip         ko,     B<in>angon-an     kon     tampol.
	Sweet     of       dream        my    <perf>woke up-?      I       suddenly
	‘Midst sweetness in my dreams, I awoke in hurried joy'
4	Lapud     say     linggas    mo,         Sikan-sikay     am-amayo-en
	Because    of      beauty     you        only you          redup-cherish-nom
	'And in your loveliness, it’s you alone in my embrace'
5	Lalo             labi        lay        no       sika     lay     na-nengneng
	Especially    night     come    when    you    det     when I see
	'Especially my dear, when you are held in my eyes'
6	Na-punas               lan     amin     so     ermin          kon     ak-bibit-en
	will wipe.away      of       all         the    loneliness   my       carrying
	'All sadness in my heart, they all but disappear'
7	No     na-nonot-an    ko     lay     samit     day     ugali-m
	when    think             I       det      sweet    of        behavior/attitude-you
	'When I think of all your ways, so sweet and gentle'
8	Ag-taka     na-lingwan-an     anggad     ka’oyos     na     bilay
	Neg-I        will forget            until            ends         of      life
	'Never, ever I forget, until the last breath of my life'
