Translation of the song lyrics Rest of Your Life - Shakatak

Rest of Your Life (original)

Dahil sa dulo bawal ang kakamot kamot
Sa katanungang harap-harapang iaabot
Sinong pinili?
Pag ang tinta ay humalik sa daliring
Siyang ginamit at nagturo na wala ay maibalik
Dapat tama!
Alam natin ang tama, 'bat di natin ginagawa?
Paulit-ulit nalang na ito ang bagong simula
Simula ng simula bakit walang natatapos?
Atras abante lagi, pudpod na swelas ng sapatos
Ilang beses nangako, ilang beses napako
'Bat di natin subukan at tulungan at umako
Bumahagi sa bigat na matagal na nating pasan
Pag tayo’y nagsama-sama lahat ay malalampasan
May mas maayos na bukas para sating mga anak
Ang unang hakbang ay piliin ang tamang nakatatak
Na pangalan sa balota wag na tayong magpauto
Na satin ang kapangyarihan pag tayo ang kumibo
Nanggigigil mong itigil ang pag pagsisi sa sutil
Na nasa pwestong di kana kilala kapag siningil
Sa lahat ng kanyang pangakong patagal ng patagal
Kung di tayo kumbinsido wag na nating ihalal
Dahil sa dulo bawal ang kakamotkamot
Sa katanungang harap-harapang iaabot
Sinong pinili?
Pag ang tinta ay humalik sa daliring
Siyang ginamit at nagturo na wala ay maibalik
Dapat tama
(Sa isip at sa salita)
Dapat tama
(Lalong lalo na sa gawa)
Dapat tama…
(Sama-sama nating itama ang mali)
Dapat tama
(Nang ang bayan natin makabangon muli)
Dapat tama
(Sa isip at sa salita)
Dapat tama
(Lalong lalo na sa gawa)
Dapat tama…
(Sama-sama nating itama ang mali)
Dapat tama
(Nang ang bayan natin makabangon muli)
DAPAT TAMA!
Itama natin ang gabay, wag na tayong mag reklamo
Itaas ang kamay ng gusto ng pag-asenso
Balikat na magkaakbay hindi tayo susuko
Malakas na boses sabay-sabay mangako
Itama natin ang gabay, wag na tayong mag reklamo
Itaas ang kamay ng gusto ng pag-asenso
Balikat na magkaakbay hindi tayo susuko
Malakas na boses sabay-sabay mangako
Kung walang magpapaloko, wala nang mangloloko
Ang mga bontanteng Pilipino ay di mga bobo
Lumiyab pag madilim, ituwid ang tiwali
Di ganon kasimple 'to, 'di kailangang magmadali
Ang tiwalang inagaw sa tao ng maneng-mane
Kahit saan natin pilitin at tigna’y maling-mali
Umahon sa kahirapan, at lumangoy sa kumunoy
Kahit ano pang iharang at tumuloy ng tumuloy
Pagdating ng eleksyon, ito ang dapat na panata
Isulat ang kung sino ang talagang sa tingin mo’y tama
At sa araw na napakabihira lang dumaan
Dapat sa may katuturan, wag kang mag-aalangan
Na hawakan ang lubid na siyang nagsisilbing tulay
Gisingin natin ang tulog, tuloy tuloy na mag-ingay
Nang malaman ng lahat sumugaw sabay-sabay
Kinabukasan ng bayan ay na sa’ting mga kamay
Dahil sa dulo bawal ang kakamotkamot
Sa katanungang harap-harapang iaabot
Sinong pinili?
Pag ang tinta ay humalik sa daliring
Siyang ginamit at nagturo na wala ay maibalik
Dapat tama
(Sa isip at sa salita)
Dapat tama
(Lalong lalo na sa gawa)
Dapat tama…
(Sama-sama nating itama ang mali)
Dapat tama
(Nang ang bayan natin makabangon muli)
Dapat tama
(Sa isip at sa salita)
Dapat tama
(Lalong lalo na sa gawa)
Dapat tama…
(Sama-sama nating itama ang mali)
Dapat tama
(Nang ang bayan natin makabangon muli)
Dapat tama!

(translation)

Because in the end it is forbidden to touch
In a face-to-face question
Who was chosen?
When the ink kisses the finger
He used and taught that nothing can be restored
Got it right!
We know what's right, don't we?
This is just a new beginning
Beginning of the beginning why does nothing end?
Back and forth always, worn -out shoe sole
How many times promised, how many times nailed
'But let's not try and help and take over
Share in the weight of our long burden
When we come together, we can all survive
There is a better tomorrow for our children
The first step is to choose the right stamp
Let's not put that name on the ballot
That we have the power when we are silent
You are anxious to stop blaming the stubborn
That is in a position that is not known when charged
With all his promises over time
If we are not convinced, we will not vote
Because in the end scratching is forbidden
In a face-to-face question
Who was chosen?
When the ink kisses the finger
He used and taught that nothing can be restored
Got it right
(In mind and word)
Got it right
(Especially in the works)
Dapat tama…
(Let's correct the wrong together)
Got it right
(When our town rises again)
Got it right
(In mind and word)
Got it right
(Especially in the works)
Dapat tama…
(Let's correct the wrong together)
Got it right
(When our town rises again)
DAPAT TAMA!
Let's correct the guide, let's not complain
Raise the hand of the one who wants ascension
Shoulder to shoulder we will not give up
Loud voices simultaneously commit
Let's correct the guide, let's not complain
Raise the hand of the one who wants ascension
Shoulder to shoulder we will not give up
Loud voices simultaneously commit
If there is no deceiver, there is no deceiver
Filipino people are not stupid
Burn in the dark, correct the corrupt
It's not that simple, there's no need to hurry
The trust robbed of man by maneng-mane
Everywhere we go we try and look wrong
Climb the difficulty, and swim in the quicksand
Anything else will block and keep going
When the election comes, this is the vow
Write down who you really think is right
And the day very rarely passed
It should make sense, don't hesitate
To hold the rope that serves as the bridge
Let's wake up from sleep, keep making noise
When everyone found out yelled at once
The future of the town is in our hands
Because in the end scratching is forbidden
In a face-to-face question
Who was chosen?
When the ink kisses the finger
He used and taught that nothing can be restored
Got it right
(In mind and word)
Got it right
(Especially in the works)
Dapat tama…
(Let's correct the wrong together)
Got it right
(When our town rises again)
Got it right
(In mind and word)
Got it right
(Especially in the works)
Dapat tama…
(Let's correct the wrong together)
Got it right
(When our town rises again)
Got it right!
