Walang Kapalit Lyrics By Rey Valera
Verse 1
‘Wag magtaka kung ako ay ‘di na naghihintay
Sa anumang kapalit ng inalay kong pag-ibig
Kulang man ang ‘yong pagtingin
Ang lahat sa’yo’y ibibigay kahit ‘di mo man pinapansin
Verse 2
‘Wag mangamba, hindi kita paghahanapan pa
Ng anumang kapalit ng inalay kong pag-ibig
Sadyang ganito ang nagmamahal
‘Di ka dapat mabahala, hinanakit sa aki’y walang-wala
Chorus
At kung hindi man dumating sa’kin ang panahon
Na ako ay mahalin mo rin
Asahan mong ‘di ako magdaramdam
Kahit ako ay nasasaktan
‘Wag mo lang ipagkait
Na ikaw ay aking mahalin
Verse 2
‘Wag mangamba, hindi kita paghahanapan pa
Ng anumang kapalit ng inalay kong pag-ibig
Sadyang ganito ang nagmamahal
‘Di ka dapat mabahala, hinanakit sa aki’y walang-wala
Chorus
At kung hindi man dumating sa’kin ang panahon
Na ako ay mahalin mo rin
Asahan mong ‘di ako magdaramdam
Kahit ako ay nasasaktan
‘Wag mo lang ipagkait
Na ikaw ay aking mahalin
At kung hindi man dumating sa’kin ang panahon
Na ako ay mahalin mo rin
Asahan mong ‘di ako magdaramdam
Kahit ako ay nasasaktan
Walang Kapalit Lyrics By Rey Valera (English Translation)
Verse 1
Don’t be surprised if I don’t wait
for anything in return for the love I have offered
Even if you don’t look enough
Everything will be given to you even if you don’t pay attention
Verse 2
Don’t be afraid , I will not look for you
any more in exchange for the love I offered
This is how I love
You shouldn’t be worried, there is nothing wrong with me
Chorus
And if the time doesn’t come for me
To love me You too
Expect that I won’t feel hurt
Even if I’m hurt
Just don’t deny
that you are my love
Verse 2
Don’t be afraid, I won’t look for you in
return for the love I’ve offered
This is the way to love It
‘s not you should be worried, resentful to me is nothing
Chorus
And if the time doesn’t come for me
To love me too
Expect that I won’t feel hurt
Even if I’m hurt
Just don’t deny
that I love you
And if the time doesn’t come for me
To Love me too.
Expect that I won’t hurt
even if I’m hurt
