Handog [English translation]

it wasn't long ago

all the dreams i had were difficult to attain

but because of you

i've achieved this moment i had always wished to gain

i want you to have my thanks and gratitude

even though it's only just a ballad

it wasn't long ago

i was living like a beggar - in the streets - so poor

but because of you

both my tummy and my pocket are empty no more

that is why this song that i am singing

is something that i would like to offer you

i'll grow old and i'll pass away someday

but i know that there's a song

i will leave behind for you, as remembrance

just because, at one time, we were all together

it wasn't long ago

no one wished to listen to the ballads that i wrote

but because of you

people heard me and my mind and soon they understood

that is why im happy to consider you

as one of my ever precious friends

i'll grow old and i'll pass away someday

but i know that there's a song

i will leave behind for you, as remembrance

just because, at one time, we were all together
