Tu Risa by Pablo Neruda ( Berso sa Metro)

I saw while I was at a LRT train going to Pedro Gil, Manila. Its a compilation of Spanish poetry converted to Tagalog. Its so romantic and beautiful.

Pablo Neruda's TU RISA:

Ríete de la noche,
del día, de la luna,
ríete de las calles
torcidas de la isla,
ríete de este torpe
muchacho que te quiere,
pero cuando yo abro
los ojos y los cierro,
cuando mis pasos van,
cuando vuelven mis pasos,
niégame el pan, el aire,
la luz, la primavera
pero tu risa nunca
porque me moriría.

Tagalog translation:

Pagtawanan mo ang gabi,
ang araw, ang buwan
Pagtawanan mo ang liku-likong
landas sa isla,
Pagtawanan mo ang torpeng
lalaking ito na nagmamahal sa iyo,
Ngunit kapag bubuksan ko
at isasara ang aking mga mata,
Kapag ako ay umalis,
kapag ako ay muling bumalik
Ipagkait mo na sa akin ang tinapay,
ang hangin, ang liwanag at ang tagsibol,
Huwag lamang ang iyong ngiti
Dahil ito’y aking ikasasawi

Its "Saber Marionette J". Its about a planet were all ladies are Marionette(Robot kind of human) due to an intergalactic accident in space that left them with one girl surviving. They got genes from the girl and from there came the Marionette frame work for that planet.Its a great anime with good storyline and also the soundtrack. I like a specific song from it that was sung by Megumi Hayashibara. The title is I'll be there. I don't speak Japanese nor understand the language but hearing this song a hundred times. There is a certain feeling that i felt, an excitement in which Japanese pop(J-Pop) have in its element. I searched for the lyrics online and found out an English Translation for it. This is courtesy of www.Jpopsasia.com . Some how in my life this relates to a special girl in my ...

Never expect that two souls will meet Unexpected it seems but it had been Planned by the God's Heaven is smiling Two young Warriors Heart are battling but feel into Cupid's arrow Singing out whats the best But believing they'll be together again. Run, walk and shout I'll wait for you Crying out my heart It's shouting your name into eternity Your kisses can stop Hades wrath The smile that is more that Mona Lisa can give Dancing with you in my dreams is not enough Babe, Heaven is waiting for us

Hinahanap ng puso by Gloc 9

Gloc 9 is fresh from coming out of the Gangsta Rap scene of the late 90's. He emerges from an aggressive rapper into a ballader rapper that the Filipinos masses accepted his songs with open arms back in the early 2000's. This song " Hinahanap ng Puso " is not a one hit wonder but it paved way for this rapper to have his own commercial break. After that, one song to the other opened the doors for Gloc 9 that until now is a household name.
