Sa Lilim Mo
Kou Hoa & Renten
A song that started as a joke and somehow turned into something tender. Sa Lilim Mo grew from a playful idea into a warm, romantic song about finding comfort, closeness, and a sense of home in someone’s presence.
Sa Lilim Mo
Kou Hoa & Renten
[Verse 1]
Sa lilim ng iyong mga dahon,
Puso ko’y payapang nananahan.
Sa bawat ihip ng hanging marahan,
Tila ako’y iyong niyayakap.
[Chorus]
O punong saging, aking sinta,
Sa iyo lamang ang aking tuwa.
Sa sikat ng araw, sa patak ng ulan,
Ikaw ang tangi kong minamahal.
At kung mamunga ka nang sagana,
Puso ko’y lalo pang sasaya.
[Outro]
Lumipas man ang panahon,
Sa iyong lilim ako’y mananatili.
English translation
In Your Shade
[Verse 1]
Beneath the shade of your leaves,
My heart rests peacefully.
With every gentle breath of wind,
It feels as though you are embracing me.
[Chorus]
O banana tree, my beloved,
In you alone I find my joy.
In the warmth of the sun, in the falling rain,
You are the one I cherish.
And when you bear fruit abundantly,
My heart will rejoice even more.
[Outro]
Though time may pass,
I will remain beneath your shade.
