saan ka man naroroon sinta
pag-ibig kong wagas
ang iyong madarama
kailan pa man sa iyo'y di lilimot
pusong uhaw sa iyong pag-irog
saan ka man naroroon sinta
pangarap ko'y ikaw
pagkat mahal kita
asahan mong sa habang panahon
alaala kita
saan ka man naroroon
asahan mong sa habang panahon
alaala kita
saan ka man naroroon

grandmother, grandfather
building a home
tell me what land haunts your dreams
do you dream of the countryside where you were born
or the land that lies o’er the sea?
grandmother, grandfather
raising your own
with a dozen of kids at your knee
boarded flight for a 12-hour ride
hoping someday they all could be free
grandmother, grandmother
tell us a tale
of the day when our mothers were born
you picked out their names like an alphabet game
seven girls, seven letters a piece
grandmother, grandfather
show me your hands
are they tired from holding the world?
and how could it be
to this day you still seem
to feel close as the day we met
Lolo and Lola
the names that you chose
from the day that your children had kids
isn’t it strange how I changed out your names
cause I thought that the syllables fit?
and isn’t it strange how we all changed our names
cause they told us the syllables fit.

you picked me up
and for a moment
my crying is silenced by your voice
i rest my head
to hear you humming
the melody that echoes in your chest
and i'm not ready, i'm not ready to be let go
when you first held me
said "i'm not ready to let you go"
we played a game
of hide and seek but
the moment i no longer felt you near
my heart would race
i felt the panic
afraid that i might never see your face again
and i'm not ready, i'm not ready to be let go
i'm not ready, no i'm not ready to be alone
and when i'm older
and you are gone
i will rest my head against the soil
to hear you humming softly still
