| Hintay (original) | Hintay (translation) |
|---|---|
| Mabilis ang ikot ng mundo | The world is spinning fast |
| Sa kakasabay nahihilo ako | At the same time I was dizzy |
| Isang hakbang sa limang patlang | One step in five fields |
| May panahon, pagkakataong | There is time, opportunity |
| Nawawala kapag di hinawakan | Disappears when not touched |
| Dudulas kapag di iningatan | Slips when not kept |
| Hoy, hoy, hoy, hoy | Hey, hey, hey, hey |
| Hintay, hintayin mo ako | Wait, wait for me |
| Mahirap nang maiwan dito | It's hard to stay here |
| Hintay, hintayin ako | Wait, wait for me |
| Dahan dahan lang hoy | Take it easy |
| Mabilis ang galaw ng oras | Time moves fast |
| Sa kakasabay nauubos ang lakas | At the same time the energy is depleted |
| Bilis na mahirap sabayan | Speed that is difficult to keep up |
| Kung may panahon, pagkakataong | If there is time, opportunity |
| Nawawala kapag di hinawakan | Disappears when not touched |
| Dudulas kapag di iningatan | Slips when not kept |
| Hoy, hoy, hoy, hoy | Hey, hey, hey, hey |
| Hintay, hintayin mo ako | Wait, wait for me |
| Mahirap nang maiwan dito | It's hard to stay here |
| Hintay, hintayin ako | Wait, wait for me |
| Dahan dahan lang hoy | Take it easy |
| Hintay | Wait |
