Hive PH Contest: We Want To Hear Your Songs About Independence

Blessed weekend everyone it's been a while since the last time I wrote in this wonderful community. This the last day of hive contest singing contest theme: Our Song for Independence And my chosen song for tonight is Bayan Ko or My Country sung by: Sir Ferdie Aguilar

And my interpretation for this song choice is; my beloved country is beautiful. But it's beauty was also the reason for its agony and pain. And now we are asking for freedom not only for our country but also for the others. Thinking about others situation is only proof of concern and love to others. Like in chorus part Even bird that fly freely Will cry once caged My land so fair Yearns to break free Philippines that I so adore Nest of tears and poverty All that I desire To see you rise and free It wanted us to know how cruel is to be tied up and locked. Everybody sure wants to be free.

The courage to help during crisis is unity towards freedom. The gift giving or distributing relief is a symbol of care and love to our fellow men. We can't stop the situation from getting worst like wars, calamaty but we can help others to lessen their burdens.

All of us hope for a better future and country for our kids and family. May the next generation have the freedom that all of us wanted.

Ang bayan kong Pilipinas
Lupain ng ginto't bulaklak
Pag-ibig na sa kanyang palad
Nag-alay ng ganda't dilag

At sa kanyang yumi at ganda
Dayuhan ay nahalina
Bayan ko, binihag ka
Nasadlak sa dusa

Ibon mang may layang lumipad
Kulungin mo at umiiyak
Bayan pa kayang sakdal-dilag
Ang 'di magnasang makaalpas

Pilipinas kong minumutya
Pugad ng luha at dalita
Aking adhika
Makita kang sakdal laya

[Chorus]
Ibon mang may layang lumipad
Kulungin mo at umiiyak
Bayan pa kayang sakdal-dilag
Ang 'di magnasang makaalpas

Pilipinas kong minumutya
Pugad ng luha at dalita
Aking adhika
Makita kang sakdal laya

English
My Country
My country The Philippines
Land of gold and flowers
Love bestowed to her
Offered beauty and glow

Due to her beauty and grace
Foriegners are tempted
My country, they enslaved you
Gave you endless suffering

KORO
Even bird that fly freely
Will cry once caged
My land so fair
Yearns to break free

Philippines that I so adore
Nest of tears and poverty
All that I desire
To see you rise and free
