Iñigo Pascual and ALAMAT “Tibay ‘Yan” Lyrics + English Translation

[Verse 1: Mo]

Kamusta?
How are you?

Balita may pangamba sa’yong sarili
I heard you’re doubting yourself

Teka lang muna dito’t makinig ka
Hold on for a moment, come here and listen

Kung nagdududa malamang nagkakamali ka ng
If you’re doubting, you’re probably wrong

Paniniwalang hanggang dito na lang
In believing this is as far as

Ang kaya ng abilidad kaya
Your abilities can truly achieve

[Chorus: Iñigo Pascual & ALAMAT]

Taas-noong tibayan
Keep your head high and be strong

Alam kong kayang-kaya mo ‘yan
I know you can definitely do it

‘Wag mong isipin ang iba
Don’t think about other people

Kung may masasabi ba
If they have anything to say

‘Di dapat ikumpara ang sarili
Don’t compare yourself to others

[Post-Chorus: Iñigo Pascual & ALAMAT]

Lagi mong tatandaan
Always remember

Walang sapat na dahilan
There’s no good enough reason

Upang tumigil ka sa’yong mga inaasam
For you to stop chasing your dreams

Negatibo’y ‘wag pamamarisan
Don’t follow negativity

Harapin ang mga hamon nang iyong malampasan
Face challenges so you can overcome them

[Verse 2: Valfer]

Ako subong mabangka, maarangka, prangka nga istorya
Let me steer, I’ll go straight, I’ll speak frankly

Hindi ka magkabalaka sa mga gakatabo nga mga trahedya
Don’t worry about the tragedies that happen

Hindi pagkumpara lawas mo sa iba kay
Don’t compare yourself to others because

[Verse 3: Alas]

Mabulukon ang atung kalibutan
Our world may be rotting

Kung kabalo lang ka unsaon ni kuloran
If you just knew how to color it

Maong kung ako pa nimo
So if I were you

Kada adlaw dili sayangan
I wouldn’t waste a single day

Kabalo kong kaya nimo
I know you can do it

Maong buhata ang tanan
So give it your all

Sagdi nang uban
Ignore the others

[Pre-Chorus: Iñigo Pascual]

Hinding-hindi na papatinag
You won’t be shaken anymore

Puso mo’y iyong tibayan
Strengthen your heart

Ipakita mo ang ‘yong liwanag
Show your light

[Chorus: Iñigo Pascual & ALAMAT]

Taas-noong tibayan
Keep your head high and be strong

Alam kong kayang-kaya mo ‘yan
I know you can definitely do it

Kung may masasabi ba
If they have anything to say

‘Di dapat ikumpara ang sarili
Don’t compare yourself to others

Lagi mong tatandaan
Always remember

Walang sapat na dahilan
There’s no good enough reason

Harapin ang mga hamon nang iyong malampasan
Face challenges so you can overcome them

Nangyare sa saimo dae na maghadit
Whatever happened to you shouldn’t scare you

Pwede mong itaram sako ngane dae ka makidit
You can tell me, so you won’t feel alone

Sa kadiit na tsansang sa imong nakukua
From the smallest chances you get

Dae mo ikasupog kung anong igwa kita
Don’t be ashamed of what we have

[Verse 5: R-Ji]

Buhat ikaw nganhin pamiling hin paagi
Move and look for a way

Hinay-hinay itun mga proseso ngan tagi
Take it slow, respect the process and give it time

Hin oras ipakita ha tanan na iba ka
In time, show everyone that you are different

Kay kadausa haatun kakaiba kun hin o kita
Because each of us is unique in who we are

[Verse 6: Taneo]

San mo nga ma amwan nu adda ti agayat
How would you know if someone loves you

Ijay tao nga pilitem nga ilemmeng
If you push people away and stay silent

Iti amin nga bato sika iti dyamante
Among all the rocks, you are the diamond

Naidumduma, awan kapada na
Unique and unlike any other

[Verse 7: Gami]

Huna-hunaon nimong na’y rason tanang nahitabo
Just think that everything happens for a reason

Mura ra’g magic nga makakurat ‘di masabot
Like magic, surprising and hard to understand

Dipende sa imong na buhat ang resulta
The result depends on what you’ve done

Maong buhata ang tanan hangtud sa imong makaya
So give it your all, do your best

[Verse 8: Jao]

E mu neman kailangan
You don’t really need

Ikumpara ing sarili mu karing aliwang tau
To compare yourself to others

Nan’ pang gagawan mu
Whatever you’re doing

E mu apapansin pero nanu mang pamagkasakit
They may not notice, but why hurt yourself over it

Papunta ya keng tagumpeng pangarapan mu
You’re still headed toward your dream of success

[Bridge: Iñigo Pascual]

‘Di na susuko, ‘di na matatakot
I won’t give up, I won’t be afraid

Ano mang sabihin nila’y ‘di na papatalo
Whatever they say, I won’t back down

Matumba ma’y babangon, maligaw man ay aahon
Even if I fall, I’ll get up, if I get lost, I’ll rise again

Ano mang haharapin, sasabay sa alon
Whatever comes, I’ll go with the flow

[Chorus: Iñigo Pascual & ALAMAT]

Taas-noong tibayan
Keep your head high and be strong

Alam kong kayang-kaya mo ‘yan
I know you can definitely do it

‘Wag mong isipin ang iba
Don’t think about other people

Kung may masasabi ba
If they have anything to say

‘Di dapat ikumpara ang sarili
Don’t compare yourself to others

‘Wag kang masanay sa iyong nakasanayan
Don’t get used to what you’re used to

Kasabay sa paglakbay, sigurado na masaya ‘yan
Together in this journey, happiness is certain

‘Wag kang masanay sa iyong nakasanayan
Don’t get used to what you’re used to

Kasabay sa paglakbay, sigurado na masaya ‘yan
Together in this journey, happiness is certain

[Outro: Iñigo Pascual & ALAMAT]

Hawak-kamay sa paglakbay
Hand in hand in this journey

Sabay-sabay tayo patungong tagumpay
Together we head toward success

Hawak-kamay sa paglakbay
Hand in hand in this journey

Sabay-sabay tayo patungong tagumpay
Together we head toward success

Kaya natin ‘yan
We can do it
