Lyrics of Ibig Kong Magtapat - Victor Wood

Ibig Kong Magtapat (original)

Ibig kong magtapat Sa yo paraluman
Ngunit nangingimi ako sa ‘yong kagandahan
Pag kita’y kaharap aking napapangarap
Na ikaw at ako’y magsasamang tapat magpahanggang wakas
Ano kaya ngayon ang aking gagawin
Di ko maihayag ang aking paggiliw
Nangangamba ako baka di mo pansin
Unang pag-ibig ko ay magmamaliw.
Kung maririnig mo ang awit kong ito
Ay parang nagtapat na rin ang puso ko sa ‘yo
Ibig kong malaman kung tinatanggap mo
Ngumiti ka lamang yan na ang tugon mong iniibig ako

(translation)

I want to confess to you
But I'm in awe of your beauty
When I see you in front of me I dream
That you and I will be together faithfully until the end
What can I do now?
I can't express my love
I'm afraid you might not notice
My first love is taking care of myself.
If you hear this song of mine
It's like my heart has confessed to you
I want to know if you accept
Just smile and that's your response that you love me
