Byahe Tayo PHILIPPINES [18+]

very beautiful music video inviting Filipinos and even everyone around the globe to tour around the Philippines! There is indeed a lot of colorful sights and sounds to experience!

what's really nice about this whole thing is that all the Filipino singers in this video sang for free! and the music is like no other!

TO those working abroad or in the Philippines: "ANG GALING!"

Ikaw ba'y nalulungkot (are you sad?)
Naiinip, nababagot? (Are you restless, irritated?)
Ikaw ba'y napapagod (Are you tired?)
Araw gabi'y puro kayod? (Always working day and night?)

Buhay mo ba'y walang saysay (Your life lost its meaning)
Walang sigla, walang kulay? (Lost its fun, lost its color)
Bawa't araw ba'y pareho (Everyday's just the same)
Parang walang pagbabago? (And nothing seems to change)

Tara na, biyahe tayo (So, let's go, let's travel)
Kasama ang pamilya (Bring your family)
Barkada at buong grupo (Friends and the whole group)
Para mag-enjoy nang todo. (to fully enjoy!)

Halika, biyahe tayo, (So let's go, let's travel)

Tara na, biyahe tayo (So let's go, let's travel)

Seven thousand and a hundred plus islas (7100 plus islands)
Sa mahal kong Pilipinas (in my beloved Philippines)
