BINI “Strings (Dance Version)” Lyrics + English Translation

[Intro: Mikha, Jhoanna, Colet/Maloi/Jhoanna]
So delicate
So delicate
Teka ‘wag muna baka mabasag
Hold on, not yet—this might break
These feelings for you (Hey!)
These feelings for you (Hey!)
‘Wag munang magulo
Don’t stir things up yet
Nag-uumpisa pa lamang
It’s only beginning
Nakikinig ba kayo?
Are you listening?
You know you got to listen
You know you got to listen

[Verse 1: Stacey, Gwen]
Sinabi na dating ginusto ko ‘to
I said before that I wanted this
Pero bakit nangyari lahat ng ito?
But why did all of this happen?
Nagmamadali, nagkakandarapa
Rushing, stumbling all over
Kita mong pabagsak na sa lupa
You can see I’m crashing to the ground
Pwede ba muna tayo pumara?
Can we stop for a moment?
Parang ‘di ko na ito kaya
Feels like I can’t take this anymore

[Pre-Chorus: Maloi, All]
Scared to admit but I’m broken
Scared to admit but I’m broken
In need to fix this fire
In need to fix this fire
Balancing on this tight rope
Balancing on this tight rope
About to fall from the sky
About to fall from the sky
(Yah, yah, yah, yah)
(Yah, yah, yah, yah)

[Chorus: Sheena, Colet, Sheena & Colet, (All)]
I’m on strings, don’t cut me off
I’m on strings, don’t cut me off
No wings, don’t let me fall off this now
No wings, don’t let me fall off this now
I’m on strings, just hanging on
I’m on strings, just hanging on
Gotta, gotta wake up, wake up, get higher
Gotta, gotta wake up, wake up, get higher
(Yah, yah, yah)
(Yah, yah, yah)

[Post-Chorus: Aiah]
I’m really, really trying, but sometimes
I’m really, really trying, but sometimes
I ain’t strong inside, can’t lie
I ain’t strong inside, can’t lie

[Verse 2: Sheena, Mikha, Aiah]
Minsan kailangan ko ring aminin
Sometimes I also need to admit
‘Pag nahihirapan, dapat sabihin
When it gets hard, I should speak up
Kaya tara, tara zoom, binibini, bloom
So come on, let’s zoom, lady, bloom
Pero, pero take a break
But, but take a break
Baby, if you feel doomed
Baby, if you feel doomed
So love yourself first, before this all hurts
So love yourself first, before this all hurts
Untie all the knots, believe and you’ll makе it
Untie all the knots, believe and you’ll makе it

[Pre-Chorus: Jhoanna, All]
Scared to admit but I’m broken
Scared to admit but I’m broken
In need to fix this fire
In need to fix this fire
Balancing on this tight ropе
Balancing on this tight ropе
About to fall from the sky
About to fall from the sky
(Yah, yah, yah, yah)
(Yah, yah, yah, yah)

[Chorus: Gwen, Stacey, Gwen & Stacey, (All)]
I’m on strings, don’t cut me off
I’m on strings, don’t cut me off
No wings, don’t let me fall off this now
No wings, don’t let me fall off this now
I’m on strings, just hanging on
I’m on strings, just hanging on
Gotta, gotta wake up, wake up, get higher
Gotta, gotta wake up, wake up, get higher
(Yah, yah, yah)
(Yah, yah, yah)

[Bridge: Jhoanna, Colet]
Sana naman marinig mo ito
I hope you hear this
Nahihirapan, naghihingalo
I’m struggling, I’m barely breathing
Alam kong kaya pero
I know I can do this, but
Pwede ba munang huminto dito?
Can I pause here for a while?

[Breakdown: Maloi, Mikha, All]
I’m on strings, don’t cut me off
I’m on strings, don’t cut me off
No wings, don’t let me fall off this now
No wings, don’t let me fall off this now
(Yah, yah, yah, yah)
(Yah, yah, yah, yah)

[Chorus: Colet, Maloi & Colet, Colet/Maloi/Jhoanna, (All)]
I’m on strings, don’t cut me off
I’m on strings, don’t cut me off
No wings, don’t let me fall off this now
No wings, don’t let me fall off this now
I’m on strings just hanging on
I’m on strings just hanging on
Gotta, gotta wake up, wake up, get higher
Gotta, gotta wake up, wake up, get higher
(Yah, yah, yah)
(Yah, yah, yah)

[Chorus: All]
I’m on strings, don’t cut me off
I’m on strings, don’t cut me off
No wings, don’t let me fall off this now
No wings, don’t let me fall off this now
I’m on strings just hanging on
I’m on strings just hanging on
Gotta, gotta wake up, wake up, get higher
Gotta, gotta wake up, wake up, get higher
(Yah, yah, yah)
(Yah, yah, yah)

[Refrain: Aiah, Stacey, Maloi, Jhoanna, (Gwen), Colet, Sheena, Mikha]
Aiah, ready, set, position
Aiah, ready, set, position
Stacey, fighting on our own
Stacey, fighting on our own
Maloi, hinding-hindi susuko
Maloi, will never ever give up
Jhoanna, taas noo, titingala
Jhoanna, chin up, will always rise
(Gwen, nobody can’t stop me)
(Gwen, nobody can’t stop me)
Colet, this race I can ace
Colet, this race I can ace
Sheena, no pressure, I’m steady
Sheena, no pressure, I’m steady
Mikha, got nothing against me
Mikha, got nothing against me

[Outro: All]
Tara, tara zoom, binibini, bloom
Come on, come on, zoom, lady, bloom
Pero, pero take a break
But, but take a break
Baby, if you feel doomed
Baby, if you feel doomed
So love yourself first, before this all hurts
So love yourself first, before this all hurts
Untie all the knots, believe and you’ll make it
Untie all the knots, believe and you’ll make it
