Foreword

Songs play an important part in Scouting. Through songs, the leader can set the mood and the
emotional tone for any gathering, be it for solemn or joyous occasions or any other atmosphere in
between.
As a medium for emotional expression, the leader can use songs to fit the mood of a group or the other
way around – influence the mood of a group through an appropriate song. Both, probably are true. And
singing should be recognized by leaders as a force that can be used in the field of character-influencing,
especially among Scouts.
Scouts sing not only songs for fun, for there are many fun songs to sing songs in Scouting, but songs
that fit and are appropriate for other Scouting occasions.
We sing songs of fellowship because we enjoy each other’s company and friendship; we sing songs to
commemorate events or express religious and patriotic fervor; we sing songs for greetings, farewell and
inspiration, and through the singing, the wise leader can help his Scouts find a world of beauty and
inspiration.

How To Lead A Song


1. Smile at your group. Relax. Radiate a little confidence and enthusiasm, even if you don't feel
particularly confident or enthusiastic. Morale is catching.
2. Tell them the name of the song they're going to sing. Always start with a rousing, well-known
“warm-up” number, so everybody, including you, can sing out with confidence.
3. Be sure to give the pitch. Sing a few bars yourself, or have a couple of bars played if an instrument is
available.
4. Start the singing with slight upward arm motion, then a decisive downward motion (a “downbeat”),
and begin singing yourself. Don't worry if some don't start with the first note - they'll join in quickly.
5. Beat time with a simple up and down motion of the arm - but make it definite, brisk, and in
command. In songs whose time is 2/4, 3/4 and 6/8, make the downbeat on the first beat of each
measure. In songs with 4/4 time, make downbeats on the first and third beats.
6. Control volume by raising your hands for louder, lowering them for softer.
7. Move around a little. Inject a little pep and personality.
8. Spark enthusiasm by dividing the crowd for a song or two. Groups sing on your signal.

Patriotic Songs

Pambansang Awit ng Pilipinas


(The Philippine National Anthem)

Bayang magiliw
Perlas ng silanganan
Alab ng puso
Sa dibdib mo’y buhay

Lupang hinirang
Duyan ka ng magiting
Sa manlulupig
Di ka pasisiil

Sa dagat at bundok
Sa simoy at sa langit mong bughaw
May dilag ang tula at awit
Sa paglayang minamahal

Ang kislap ng watawat mo’y


Tagumpay na nagniningning
Ang bituin at araw niya
Kailan pa ma'y di magdidilim

Lupa ng araw ng luwalhati’t pagsinta


Buhay ay langit sa piling mo
Aming ligaya na pag may mang-aapi
Ang mamatay ng dahil sa iyo.

Pilipinas Kong Mahal


(My Beloved Philippines)

Ang bayan ko’y tanging ikaw


Pilipinas kong mahal
Ang puso ko at buhay man
Sa iyo’y ibibigay

Tungkulin kong gagampanan


Na lagi kang paglingkuran
Ang laya mo’y babantayan
Pilipinas kong hirang
Bayan Ko

Ang bayan kong Pilipinas


Lupain ng ginto’t bulaklak
Pag-ibig ang sa kanyang palad
Nag-alay ng ganda’t dilag
At sa kanyang yumi at ganda
Dayuhan ay nahalina
Bayan ko, binihag ka
Nasadlak sa dusa.

Ibon mang may laying lumipad


Kulungin mo at umiiyak
Bayan pa kayang sakdal dilag
Ang di magnasang makaalpas
Pilipinas kong minumutya
Pugad ng luha ko’t dalita
Aking adhika
Makita kang sakdal laya

Ako ay Pilipino
(I Am A Filipino)

Ako ay Pilipino, ang dugo’y maharlika


Likas sa aking puso, adhikaing kayganda
Sa Pilipinas na aking bayan
Lantay ng Perlas ng Silanganan
Wari’y natipon ng kayamanan ng Maykapal

Bigay sa ‘king talino, sa mabuti lang laan


Sa aki'y katutubo ang maging mapagmahal.
Chorus:
Ako ay Pilipino,
Ako ay Pilipino
Isang bansa isang diwa
Ang minimithi ko
Sa bayan ko’t bandila, laan buhay ko’t diwa
Ako ay Pilipino, Pilipinong totoo
Ako ay Pilipino, Ako ay Pilipino
Taas noo kahit kanino
Ang Pilipino ay Ako!

Halina

Halina sa aming bayan,


Pilipinas ng Silangan.
Lupang kasuyo ng araw,
Ang lahat ay kaibigan.
Dumalaw kayo sa amin
At bukas ang tahanan namin.
Bawa’t aming panauhin
Ay kapatid kung ituring.
Bayan namin ay payapa,
Lahi namin ay dakila,
Halina sa aming bansa
Ng pag-ibig at paglaya!
Sampaguita

Sampaguita ng aming lipi,


Bulaklak sa sakdal ng yumi.
Ikaw ang mutya kong pinili
Na sagisag ng ating lahi.

Ang kulay mong binusilak


Ay diwa ng aming pangarap,
Ang iyong bango't halimuyak
Sa tuwina’y aming nilalanghap.

O bulaklak, na nagbibigay ligaya


O paralumang mutyang Sampaguita
Larawang mistula ng mga dalaga
Ikaw ang tanging butuing hiraman
ng kanilang ganda.

Ang iyong talulot


Ang siyang tunay na sagisag,
Ng sa dalagang pusong wagas,
Kayumian at pagkamatapat.

Pledge of Allegiance

I pledge allegiance to the flag


Of the Philippines
And to the Republic
For which it stands.
One nation under God
Indivisible, with liberty
And justice for all,
And justice for all.

Awit ni Maria Clara


(Song of Maria Clara)

Buhay ay kay-tamis sa sariling bayan,


Magiliw ang lahat ng araw.
Ang hangi’y may samyong
Nagbibigay-buhay,
Kamataya’y langit, pag-ibig ay banal.

Magiliw na halik, sa tuwing umaga,


Sa bunso’y pamupog ng irog na ina.
Ang bisig ng bunsong may ngiti sa mata
Sa liig ng hirang ay ikakawit na.

Tamis ng mamatay ng dahil sa bayan,


Magiliw ang lahat ng araw.
Ang hangi’y may samyo ng kamatayan
Sa walang bayan, ina’t kasintahan.

Philippines, The Beautiful

O beautiful for spacious skies,


For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountains majesties
Above the fruited plain.
My Philippines, my Philippines,
God shed his grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood,
From sea to shining sea!

O beautiful for toiler’s hands,


Whose labor Thou dost bless
Creating fields and fruitlands
From barren wilderness.

My Philippines, dear Philippines,


God mend thine every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self control,
Thy liberty in law.

O beautiful for heroes proved


In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved,
And mercy more than life!

My Philippines, loved Philippines,


My God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness
And every gain divine!

Scouting Spirit

Hail! hail! Scouting Spirit
Loyal we stand.

Onward and upward we’re treading,


Always alert to make Scouting ready,
We are prepared.

Scout-Hearted Men

Give me some men who are Scout-hearted men


Who will fight for the right they adore
Start me with ten who are Scout-hearted men,
And I’ll soon give you ten thousand more.

Shoulder to shoulder and bolder and bolder


They grow as they go on the fore!
Then – there’s nothing in the world
Can halt or march a plan
When Scout-hearted men
Can stick together man to man!

On My Honor

On my honor, I’ll do my best


To do my duty to God.
On my honor, I’ll do my best
To serve my country as I may,
On my honor, I'll do my best
To do my Good Turn each day
To keep my body strengthened
And keep my mind awakened
To follow paths of righteousness.
On my honor, I’ll do my best.

BSP Anniversary Song

[Lyrics by RR de la Cruz]

They’re the hopes of Filipinas


They’re the future of the land
Watch them marching
Hear them cheering
Theirs is a mighty band!

They’re the younger generation


They’re the youngsters of today
Yet tomorrow, men will follow
Whatever they might say!

Hail! Boy Scouts of Filipinas


Here’s a lusty cheer for thee
Hear the nation on this occasion
Your happy anniversary.

Makiling, You’re For Me

(Tune: A Place)

I know a place
Where Scouters always go
Where there is fun
And hearts are all aglow
It overlooks the bay as it rises to the sky
Where the moonbeams flirt with dewdrops
As the breezes sigh
God fills the soul, the body and the mind
Scouting ideals are never hard to find
Now I know, Makiling is the place for me

Makiling, you’re for me!


Makiling, you’re for me!
Makiling, you’re for me!

Scouting Spirit

I don't care if it rains or freezes


As long as I have the Scouting spirit
Right here deep in my heart
Thru all kinds of stormy weather
Me and my BP will stick together
Right here deep in my heart
Scouting spirit (2x)
Right here deep in my heart
O my Lord full of grace
Help me find a peaceful place
Right here deep in my heart.

I’ve Got A Home In Makiling

I’ve got a home in Makiling


the outshines the sun
I’ve got a home in Makiling
the outshines the sun
I’ve got a home in Makiling
the outshines the sun
Way beyond the blue.

Do! Lord, O do Lord


Oh do remember me
Do! Lord, oh do Lord
Oh do remember me
Do! Lord, oh do Lord
Oh do remember me
Way beyond the blue.

Scouting We Go
Scouting we go,
Scouting we go.
Sunlit trails
And lands where waters flow,
By the campfire’s friendly flaming glow.
Scouting we go.
Scouting we go.

When Scouters Eyes Are Smiling


When Scouters eyes are smiling,
Sure it's like a morn in spring.
In the lilt of Scouter’s laughter
You can hear the angels sing.
When Scouters hearts are happy
All the world see bright and gay
And when Scouters eyes are smiling,
Sure they steal your heart away.

Shout A Cheer For Scouting


(Tune: Don’t Give Up the Ship)

Never mind the weather

Let us shout a cheer for Scouting
Keep it as a jolly outing,
Scouting marches on!

Hail to All Scouts


Hail to all Scouts

Let’s all hail the Scouting way!
Commitment Song
I’ll give my hand
To those who cannot see,
The sunrise or the falling rain.

For I may never pass this way again.

With every troubled heart,
For I shall not have lived in vain.

That the time has come


To fulfill each vow
For I may never pass this way again.

Up in my head, up in my head to stay.

In the heart of every Scout
There is honor for the flag,
And a thought of all its glories of the past.
And each Scout has made a vow
That his faith will never lag
To the Glory of the country that he loves….

Under the smiling skies above.

We will hold forever true.
To the glory of the country that we love…

There‘s Something About a Boy Scout


(Tune: There’s Something About a Soldier)

There’s something about a Boy Scout,


There’s something about a Boy Scout,
There’s something about a Boy Scout
That is fine, fine, fine;

He’ll work for a badge of merit,


He’s proud of the chance to wear it,
He’s learned to be prepared
All the time, time, time.

He’ll never be an outlaw


If he’ll obey the Scout Law,
He’s ever up and about,
He toes the line, line, line.
On his oath to do his best,
That’s enough, you know the rest,
There’s something about the Boy Scout
That is fine, fine, fine.

On The Trail

We’re on the Upward Trail


We’re on the upward trail,
We’re in the upward trail,
Singing as we go ,
Scouting bound.

We’re on the upward trail,


We’re on the upward trail,
Singing, singing, everyday singing,
Scouting bound.

The Happy Wanderer


I love to go a –wandering,
Along the mountain track,
And as I go I love to sing,
My knapsack on my back.

Chorus:
Valderi, valdera, valderi, valdera
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
Vaderi, valdera
My knapsack on my back.

I love to wander by the stream


That dances in the sun,
So joyously it calls to me
Come! Join my happy song!

I wave my hat to all I meet,


And they wave back to me,
And bluebirds call so loud and sweet
From every greenwood tree.

High overhead, the skylarks wing


They never rest at home,
But just like me, they love to sing
As o’er the world we roam.

Oh may I go a-wandering
Until the day I die,
Oh, may I always laugh and sing
Beneath God’s clear blue sky!

Over There
Over there, over there,
Send the word, send the word,
Over there.
That the boys are coming,
The boys are coming
The drums run tumming ev’rywhere;
So prepare, say a pray’r
Send the word, send the word to beware,
We’ll be over, we’re coming over
And we won’t come back till it’s over,
Over there.

When Johnny Comes Marching Home


When Johnny comes marching home again
Hurrah, hurrah!
We’ll give him a hearty welcome then,
Hurrah, hurrah!
The men will cheer, the boys will shout,
The ladies they will all turn out.
And we’ll all feel gay,
When Johnny comes marching home!

The old church-bell will peal with joy,


Hurrah, hurrah!
The village lads and lassies say
Hurrah, hurrah!
With roses they will strew the way,
And we’ll all feel gay
When Johnny comes marching home!

The Rover Song


Bold Rovers are we and happy to be together,
A shake of the hand, a pledge that we stand together
Wand’ring out in God’s good air,
Finding sunshine everywhere
We’re hitting the trail through mountain and dale together
Happy healthy pals are we.
Chorus:
Though winds may blow across the sea,
Whate’er may be our destiny,
Comrades we’ll always be
Until our life is done.
We’ll share our laughter and our tears
We’ll share each other’s hopes and fears
And like three famous Musketeers
One for all and all for one.

We steer to the right with hearts that are light together,


At night by the fire a song we inspire together,
Shouting greetings round and round,
Through the world our camping ground,
Our life we shall spend wisely to the end together,
Singing out our Rover song.

I’m Happy When I’m Hiking


Tramp, Tramp, tramp, tramp,
Tramp, tramp, tramp, tramp,
I’m happy when I’m hiking, pack upon my back,
I’m happy when I’m hiking, off the beaten track.
Out in the open country, that’s the place for me,
With a good scout friend, to the journey's end.
Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty miles away
Tramp, tramp, tramp, tramp,
Tramp………………… Tramp
Trek Cart Song

Over hill, over dale


As we hit the river trail, and the trek cart goes rolling along.
In and out, hear them shout
Gee! I'm glad that I'm a Scout
And the trek cart goes rolling along.

Then it’s hi-hi-hee!


It is the life for me,
Start the day and end it with a song
Wherever you go, you will always know that the trek cart goes rolling along.

Keep it rolling (shout)


That our trek cart goes rolling along .
Troop halt! (shout)
And Scouts answer
One, two.

Sing Your Way Home


Sing your way home, at the close of the day,
Sing your way home, drive the shadows away,
Smile every mile for wherever you roam,
It will brighten your road, it will lighten your load,
If you sing your way home.

To the boys Scout Jamboree.
Join the throng and swing along,
As we sing our song.

Underneath the stars at night
In the camp fire’s light.

We’re the boys of the left-hand shake,

Singing on the trail.

And smile, smile, smile.

Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag and
Smile, smile, smile.

Roll Me Over The Ocean


Roll me over the ocean,
Roll me over the sea,
Roll me over the ocean
And the deep blue sea. (repeat stanza)

It’s love, it’s love, it’s love that makes the world go round. (3x)
It’s love that makes the world go round.

It’s wine - that makes the head go round


It’s girls - that make the heart go round
It’s skirts - that make the shorts go round
Smiles

There are smiles that make us happy


There are smiles that make us blue
There are smiles that steal away the teardrops
As the sunbeams steal away the dew.

There are smiles that have a tender meaning


That the eyes of love alone may see,
But the smiles that fill my life with sunshine
Are the smiles that you give to me.

If There’s Any trouble Just You Smile


If there’s any trouble just you smile,
If there’s any trouble just you smile,
And if there’s any trouble
It will vanish like a bubble
If you only take the trouble just you smile.
Laugh
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

Joy, joy, my heart is full of joy
For Scouters and friends are here today
That’s the reason why my heart is full of joy.

Old Banjo
I used to have an old banjo
And played it on my knee.
But now the strings are broken down
And it’s no good to me.

I took it to a mender’s shop


To see what he could do,
But still the strings are broken down
And it’s no good to me.

I took it to another shop,


To see what they could do.
And now the strings are fixed up
And it’s as good as new.

Edelweis
Edelweis, edelweis,
Every morning you greet me.
Small and white, clean and bright;
You look happy to meet me.

Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow,


Bloom and grow forever;

Bless my homeland forever.

I’m Going Back Home


I’m going back home, to mount Makiling,
Where the sunshine never fades.

I miss the moonlight on Scouter’s lane.
I’m going back home to mount Makiling
Where the sunshine never fades.

Hail, hail, to you! (Hail to you)


Hail, hail, to you! (Hail to you)
When I look at, look at you
And you look at, look at me
Keep your smile and hail to you.

I’m going back home to Mount Makiling


Where the sunshine never fades.

Campfire’s Burning
Campfire’s burning, campfire’s burning,
Draw nearer, draw nearer,
In the gloaming, in the gloaming,
Come sing and be merry.
(Repeat as desired)

Good night
Good night my someone, good night my love,
Sweetheart my someone, be mine my love.
The star is shining, it’s bright at night;

Sweet dreams that carry you close to me.
I wish I may and I wish that I,
So good night my someone good night.

Concert in the Park

And that, was that a concert in the Park


Where they met in the dark
The music was so nice, they played it over twice
And the band was playing...

(the group pointed to sing their song)

Each Campfire Lights Anew


Each campfire lights a-new
The flame of friendship true
The joy we've had in knowing you
Will last the whole year through.

Taps
Day is done, gone the sun
From the lake, from the hills,
From the sky.
All is well,
Safely rest,
God is nigh.
Are you Sleeping

Are you sleeping? Are you sleeping?

Morning bells are ringing, morning bells are ringing,
Ding ding dong, ding ding dong.

Kung ang Ulan


(Tune: If all of the Raindrops)

Kung ang ulan ay malapot na sorbetes -


O kay sarap ng ulan;
Kung ang ulan ay malapot na sorbetes -
O kay sarap ng ulan.
Ako’y lalabas na bukas ang bibi-ig
Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!
O, kay sarap ng ulan.

And smile, smile, smile.

Wonderful world
Refrain:
Wonderful, wonderful
Wonderful, wonderful world.

Wonderful, wonderful
Wonderful, wonderful world.

I
If we could consider each other,
A neighbor, a friend or a brother
This could be a wonderful, wonderful world,
This could be a wonderful world.

II
If each little boy could have Scouting each day,
If each working man had enough time to play;
If each homeless soul had a nice place to stay,
This could be a wonderful world.

III
If there were no poor and the rich were content,
If strangers were welcome wherever they went;
If each of us knew what true brotherhood meant;
This could be a wonderful world

*** repeat refrain after each stanza ***


It’s A Small World
It’s a world of laughter, a world of tears;
It’s a world of hopes and a world of fears.
There’s so much that we share and it’s time we’re aware
It’s a small world after all.

It’s a small world after all.


It’s a small world after all.
It’s a small world after all.
It’s a small, small world.

There’s just but one moon and a golden sun


And a smile means friendship to everyone.
Though the mountains divide and the oceans are wide
It’s a small world after all.

One Little candle


It is better to light just one little candle
Than to stumble in the dark.
Better far that you light just one little candle
All you need is a tiny spark.
If we’ll all say a pray’r that the world would be free;
The wonderful dawn of a new day we’ll see;
And if everyone lit just one little candle;
What a bright world this would be.

We Shall Overcome
We shall overcome,
We shall overcome,
We shall overcome, someday.
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe
We shall overcome someday.

2. We shall overcome today


3. We’ll walk hand in hand.

A Little Love
(A boy’s plea)

A little love that slowly grows and grows,


Not one that comes and goes
That’s all I ask of you.

A sunny day to look up to the sky


A hand to help me by
That’s all I ask of you.

Don’t let me down


Oh, show me that you care.
Remember when you give
You also get a share.

Don’t let me down


I have no time to wait,
Tomorrow may not come
By then will be too late.

(Repeat from Don’t let me down…)


O Pag-ibig
(A Little Love)

O pag-ibig at pagsintang tunay


Na tangi kong taglay,
Sa iyo’y iaalay.

Lingapin mo at pag-asa’y bigyan


Ang abang puso ko
Sa iyo’y nagmamahal.

Huwag mo sanang hayaang magdusa


Pag-ibig sa akin iyong ipapadama
Tandaan mo na ang pag-ibig ko
Tanging iaalay
Sa iyo aking mahal.

Trees
I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed,
Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast.
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray.

A tree that may, in summer wear


A nest of robins in her hair.
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain,
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
Everything Together
We can do everything together,
Everything together for the boy.
There’s nothing we can never do,
Never can do anything at all.
We can solve, many different problems
If we work together for the boy,
All our troubles will vanish away
And we’ll have a brand new day. (2x)

Special Day
Fill the air with song of cheer
With voices loud and clear,
For people around you
Are Scouts who love you
Love you in a special way
And so before say goodbye
Give us your great, big smile
Brighten up, let’s all be gay
(It’s a very special day) 2x

Roll, Roll, Your Burden’s Away


Roll, roll your burdens away,
Roll, roll your burdens away,
For Scouting has promised to take them all;
Roll, roll your burdens away.
Today
Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine,
I’ll taste your strawberries,
I’ll drink your sweet wine.
A million tomorrows shall all pass away,
Ere I’ll forget all the joy that are mine today.

I’ll be a dandy and I’ll be a rover,


You’ll know who I am by the songs that I sing.
I’ll sleep in your clover, I’ll feast at your table,
Who cares what the morrow may bring.

I can’t be contented with yesterday’s glory


I can’t live on promises winter to spring.
Today is my moment and now is my story
I’ll laugh and I’ll cry and I’ll sing.

Oh Freedom
Oh freedom, oh freedom
Oh freedom over me
And before I’d be slave
I’ll be buried in my grave
And go home to my Lord and be free
No more mourning, no more mourning
No more mourning over me

Repeat refrain:

2. Crying
3. There’ll be: Singing, Clapping, Dancing, Scouting
It” s A Long Road to freedom
It’s a long road to freedom
A-winding steep and high,
But when you walk in love
With the wind on your wings,
And cover the earth
With songs you sing
The miles fly by.

Guide a boy
Never walk through the world all alone,
Never leave all the paths you have trodden.
Every day is a bright new tomorrow,
Yesterday must not be all forgotten.

The boys are all hoping and wishing that you


Will guide them on their way.
So give all you’ve got, never leave anything,
True love is found in Scouting.

So walk with the boy in your hand,


Guiding him through the path full of sunshine,
Never leave any path still untrodden ,
Never leave any stone still unturned.

I Believe
I believe for every drop of rain that falls,
A flower grows.
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night,
A candle glows.
I believe for everyone who goes astray,
Someone will come to show the way.
I believe, I believe.

I believe above the storm


The smallest pray’r will still be heard
I believe that someone in the great somewhere,
Hears every words.
(Every time I hear a new-born baby cry,
Or touch a leaf, or see the sky
Then I know why I believe.) 2x

I’m Gonna Sing


I’m gonna sing when the spirit says sing
I'm gonna sing when the spirit says sing
I’m gonna sing when the spirit says sing
And obey the spirit of the Lord.

2. Laugh

Scout Leader’s Prayer


Our Father in Heaven
Above us we ask Thee
For guidance in our daily task.

May virtue and manhood


Stand strongly among us
To thee we give all of our thanks.

The scout Oath, the Scout Law,


Their lessons unfolding
To our youth in numbers untold.

Our Motto, our Good Turn,


May we live it and teach it,
Great Spirit of Scouting we pray.

Tell Me Why
Tell me why the stars do shine,
Tell me why the ivy twines.
Tell me why the sky’s so blue
Tell me ------- (dear Scouter)
Just why I love you.

Because God made the stars to shine,


Because God made the ivy twines.
Because God made the skies so blue
Dear old (Scouter)
That’s why I love you.

Anak ng Dalita
Ako’y anak ng dalita na tigib ng luha.
Naririto humihibik na bigyan ng awa.
Buksan mo ang langit, at kusa mong pakinggan
Ang abang ligalig sa pagkadaramdam.

At kung hindi ka mahahabag sa hirap kong dinaranas,


Puso’t diwa’y naghihirap, sa dilim masasadlak.
Magtanong ka rin sa ulap ng taglay kong dalita.

Sa dilim ng gabi, aking nilalamay


Tanging larawan mo ang nagiging ilaw.
Kung ako ay mahimbing sa gitna ng dilim
Ay iyong ihulog puso mo sa akin.

He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands


Chorus:
He’s got the whole world in His hands,
He’s got the whole wide world in His hands,
He’s got the whole world in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.

I

You’ll Never walk Alone
When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high,
And don’t be afraid of the dark.
At the end of the storm is a golden sky
And a sweet silver song of the lark.
Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Though your dreams be tossed and blown,
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart,
And you’ll never walk alone,
You’ll never walk alone.

No man is an Island
No man is an island, no man stand alone;
Each man's joy is joy to me,
Each man's grief is my own.
We need one another, so I will defend
Each man as my brother, each man as my friend.

Refrain:
I saw the people gather, I heard the music stand,
The song that they were singing
Is singing in my heart.

God Made Those Beautiful Flowers


Who made the beautiful flowers?
I know , I know,
God made those beautiful flowers,
That’s why we love Him So.

In My Fathers House
O come and go with me (Hallelujah)

There’ll be no parting there (Hallelujah)


In my Father’s house (3x) (Hallelujah)
There’ll be no parting there (Hallelujah)
In my Father house (Hallelujah)
There is Peace, peace, peace.

Let’s The Rest Of The World Go By


With someone like you
A pal good and true
I’d like to leave it all behind
And go and find
Some place that’s known
To God alone
Just a spot to call our own
We’ll find perfect peace
Where joys never cease
But there beneath the kindly sky
We’ll build a sweet little nest
Somewhere in the West
And let the rest of the world go by.

When Somebody Cares For You


No matter how the winds may blow
Good times may come, good times may go
How wonderful it is to know
That somebody cares for you.

Whenever days have cloudy skies


The world may seem too misty-eyed
True lovers know love never dies
When somebody cares for you.

Somebody who will lead the way.


Somebody who will hear you say,
Follow me and take my hand
And you will surely understand.

The world may seem unjust and bad


With all your dreams you never had
But love can take away the time
When somebody cares for you.

A Place
I know a place where no one ever goes
There’s peace and quiet, beauty and repose.
It’s hidden in the valley beside a mountain stream.
And lying there beside the stream
I found that I can dream.
Only of things of beauty to the eyes,
Snow-peaked mountains, climbing to the skies
Now I know that God made this world for me.

Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep


Now I lay me down to sleep,
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
Pray the Lord my soul to keep,
Angels watching over me.

Chorus:
All day, all night,
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
All day, all night.
Angels watching over me.
And if I die before I wake
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
Pray the Lord my soul to keep
Angels watching over me.

Scouts’ Vesper Song


Softly falls the light of day
As sour camp fire fades away;
Silently each Scout should ask
Have I done my daily task?
Have I kept my honor bright?
Can I guiltless sleep tonight?
Have I done and have I dared
Everything to be prepared?

The Morning Prayer


(Tune: Maryland)

Lord, in this morning hour I pray


For strength to live my best today.
Draw near to me, and I shall see
The kind of man Thou’d have me be,
I’m serving others may I see
That I am only serving thee,
Fit me, Oh Lord, in thy great plan,
That I may be a better man.

Music Alone Shall Live


All things shall perish from under the sky.
Music alone shall live,
Music alone shall live,
Music alone shall live,
Never to die.

Old Favorites

Ramona
Ramona, I hear the mission bells above,
Ramona, They’re ringing out our song of love.
I praise you, caress you,
And bless the day you taught me to care
I’ll always remember
The rambling rose you wore in your hair.
Ramona, when day is done you’ll hear my call,
Ramona, we’ll meet beside the waterfall,
I dread the dawn when I awake to find you gone
Ramona, I need you my own.

You Are My Sunshine


You are my sunshine, my only sunshine,
You make me happy when skies are gray.
You’ll never know dear, how much I love you;
Please don’t take my sunshine away.

The other night dear as I lay sleeping;


I dreamt I held you in my arms.
When I awoke dear, I was mistaken,
So I hung my head and cried.

Down In the Valley


Down in the valley, the valley so low,
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow,
Hear the wind blow dear, hear the wind blow;
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow.

Write me a letter, containing three lines,


Answer my question, will you be mine?
Will you be mine dear? Will you be mine?
Answer my question, will you be mine?

Build me a castle forty feet high


So I can see her, as she rides by;
As the rides by dear, as she rides by;
So I can see her as she rides by.

Roses love sunshine, violets love dew


Angels in heaven know I love you;
Know I love you dear, know I love you;
Angel in heaven, know I love you.

Moonlight Bay
We were sailing along, on moonlight bay
We could hear the voices singing,
They seem to say,
You have stolen my heart,
Now don’t go away,
As we sing love’s old sweet song
On moonlight bay.

I Want A Girl
I want a girl, just like the girl
That married dear old Dad.
She was a pearl and the only girl
That Daddy ever had.

A good old-fashioned girl with heart so true.


One who loves nobody else but you.
I want a girl, just like the girl
That married dear old Dad.

When I Grow Too Old To Dream


We had been gay, going our way
Life has been beautiful, we have been young
Yet will find you in my mind
Beckoning over the years.

Chorus:
When I grow too old to dream
I’ll have you to remember
When I grow too old to dream
Your love will live in my heart.

So kiss me, my sweet


And, come, let us part
For when I grow too old to dream
That kiss will live in my heart.
Springtime In The Rockies
When it’s springtime in the Rockies
I’ll be coming back to you.
Little sweetheart of the mountain
With your bonnie eyes of blue.
Once again I’ll say, “I love you”
While the birds sing all the day;
When it’s springtime in the Rockies
In the Rockies far away.

Beautiful Brown Eyes


Beautiful, beautiful brown eyes
Beautiful, beautiful brown eyes
Beautiful, beautiful brown eyes
I’ll never love blue eyes again.

Willie, oh Willie, I love you


I love you with all my heart
I know you and I would have married
But one of us had to depart.

Refrain:
Getting up early each morning
Working and toilin' all day
Supper to fix in the evening
But brown eyes he just will not stay.
(Repeat refrain)
Down By the old Mill Streams

Down by the old (new) mill stream (river)


Where I first (second) met you (them)
With your eyes (nose) so blue (green)
Dressed in gingham (silk) too (one)
It was there (here) I knew (old)
That you love (hate) me true (false)
You were sixteen (fifteen)
A village queen (king)
Down by the old (new) mill stream (river)

Always
I’ll be loving you always
With a love that’s true, always
When the things you’ve planned
Need a helping hand
I will understand, always, always.

By The Light Of The Silvery Moon


By the light of the silver moon,
I want to spoon,
To my honey I’ll croon, love's tune
Honey moon, keep on shining in June
You silvery beams, will love dreams,
We’ll be cuddling up soon,
By the silvery moon.
True Love

Come and sit by my side little darling


I’m living you just for a while
Oh promise me that you will never
Be nobody’s darling but mine.

Even though you’re away little darling


You’ll always be here in my heart
I promise I will never ever
Forget you’re my only true love.

You’re as sweet as a rose in the springtime,


And bright the stars up above.
Oh promise me that you will never
Be nobody’s darling but mine.

Beautiful Dreamer
Beautiful dreamer wake unto me;
Starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee.
Sounds of the rude world heard in the day,
Lulled by the moonlight have all passed away.

Beautiful dreamer, queen of my song;


List while I woo thee, with soft melody.
Gone are the cares of life’s busy throng,
Beautiful dreamer awake unto me,
Beautiful dreamer awake unto me.

Singing in the Rain


I’m singing in the rain,
Just singing in the rain;
What a glorious feeling,
I’m happy again.
I’m laughing at the clouds
So dark up above,
The sun’s in my heart
And I’m ready for love.
Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place;
Come on with the rain,
I’ve a smile on my face.
I’ll walk down the lane
With a happy refrain,
And singing, just singing in the rain.

Can’t Help Falling in Love


Wise men say only fools rush in;
But I can’t help falling in love with you.
Shall I say would it be a sin,
But I can’t help falling in love with you.

Like the river flows surely to the sea;


Darling so it goes
Something are meant to be.
Take my hands, take my whole life through;
But I can’t help falling in love with you.

Silver Thread Among The Gold


Darling, I’m growing old,
Silver threads among the gold.
Shine upon my brow today,
Life is fading, fast away.
But my darling, you will be, will be
Always young and fair to me,
Yes! My darling, you will be,
Always young and fair to me.

Refrain:
Darling, I’m growing old
Silver threads among the gold
Shine upon my brow today
Life is fading fast away.

When your hair is silver white


And your cheeks no longer bright;
With the roses of the May
I will kiss your lips and say;
Oh! My darling, mine alone, alone,
You have never older grown.

Love can never more grow old,


Locks may lose their brown and gold;
Cheeks may fade and hallow grow
But the hearts that love will know.
Never, never winter’s frost and chill;
Summer warmth is in them still.
Never winter’s frost and chill;
Summer warmth is in them still.
Silver Threads
Love is always young and fair,
What to us is silver hair,
Faded cheeks or steps grown slow,
To the heart that beat below?
Since I kiss’d you, mine alone
You have never older grown.

Jaunita
Soft o’er the mountain,
Ling’ring falls the southern moon;
Far o’er the mountain breaks the day too soon!
In the dark eyes’ splendor,
Where the warm light loves to dwell
Weary looks, yet tender speak their fond farewell!

Nita! Juanita! Ask thy soul if we should part!


Nita! Juanita! Lean thou on my heart.

When it thy dreaming,


Moons like these shall shine again,
And daylight beaming prove thy dreams are in vain,
Wilt thou not relenting, for thine absent love’s sigh.
In thy heart consenting
To a prayer gone by?

Nita! Juanita! Let me linger by thy side!


Nita! Juanita! Be my own fair bride!
Winds of The Sea

He sailed away at break of day


As I stood there on the shore
He waved his hands and it made me cry
Till I found my love no more.

Refrain:
Blow, blow winds of the sea
My love is waiting somewhere for me
Blow, blow winds of the sea
Bring back my loved one to me.

The winds blew in from dawn to dawn


I see the ships passing by
But not a word from the one I love
Since the time he said goodbye.
(Repeat refrain)

The years passed by and here am I


Alone with my memories
My love is gone but I’ll carry on
With the winds that blew for me.

Let Me Call You Sweatheart


Boys:
Let me call you sweetheart
I’m in love with you.
Let me hear you whisper,
That you love me, too.
There’s a lovelight burning
In your eyes so blue,
Let me call you sweetheart,
I’m in love with you.

Girls:
Don’t you call me sweetheart
I am through with you.
Give me back my letters
And my pictures, too.
There’s no lovelight gleaming
In your heart untrue;
Don’t you call me sweetheart,
I’m through with you.

(Sing in unison)

Ciribiribee
Ciribiribee, with hearts so free,
We’ll sing and dance this melody.
Ciribiribee, ah what romance,
With hearts in harmony
Ciribiribee, what ecstasy,
To sing through life so merrily
Ciribiribee, ciribiribee,
Ciribiribee means love for thee.

She’ll Be coming Round the Mountain


She’ll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes.
She’ll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes.
She’ll be coming 'round the mountain,
She’ll be coming 'round the mountain,
She’ll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes.

2. She’ll be driving six white horses…


3. And we’ll kill the little red rooster...
4. And we’ll all have chicken and dumplings…

Softly As I leave You


Softly, I will leave you softly,
For my heart would break
If you should wake and see me go.
So I’ll leave you softly,
Long before you miss me,
Long before your arms,
Can beg me stay;
For one more hour,
Or one more day.
After all the years
I can’t bear the tears
To fall so softly;
As I leave you there.
As I leave you there.

I’ve Been Working on the Railroad


I’ve been working on the railroad
All the live long-day.
I’ve been working on the railroad,
Just to pass the time away.
Can’t you hear the whistle blowing?
Rise up so early in the morn,
Can’t you hear the captain shouting?
Dinah, blow your horn!

(Dinah won’t you blow,


Dinah won’t you blow,
Dinah won’t you blow your horn!) 2x

Someone’s in the kitchen with Dinah.


Someone’s in the kitchen I know, I know.
Someone’s in the kitchen with Dinah,
Strumming on the old banjo and singing;
Fi-fie, fiddle-i-o,
Fi-fie, fiddle-i-o,
Fi-fie, fiddle-i-o,
Strumming in the old banjo.

Clementine
In a cavern, in a canyon,
Excavating for a mine;
Dwelt a miner, forty niner,
And his daughter Clementine.

Oh my darling, oh my darling,
Oh my darling Clementine;
You are lost and gone forever,
Dreadful sorry Clementine.

Light she was and like a fairy


And her shoes were no. 9
Herring boxes, without topses
Sandals were for Clementine.

Drove she ducklings to the water,


Every morning just at nine;
Hit her foot against a splinter,
Fell into the foaming brine.

Saw her lips above the water,


Blowing bubbles, mighty fine;
But alas! I was no swimmer,
So I lost my Clementine.

Oh, Susanna
I came to Alabama with my banjo on my knee,
I’m gwine to Louisiana my true love for to see
It rained all night the day I left,
De weather it was dry
De sun so hot I froze to death;
Sussana, don’t you cry.

Chorus:
Oh, Susanna, oh, don’t cry for me
I’ve come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee.
Oh, Susanna, oh, don’t cry for me
I’ve come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee.

I had a dream last night,


When everything was still;
I thought I saw Susanna a-coming down the hill.
De buck wheat cake was in her mouth,
De tear was in her eyes;
Says I, I’m coming from the south,
Susanna, don’t you cry.

Old Black Joe


Gone are the days,
When my heart was young and gay.
Gone are my friends from the cotton fields away,
Gone from the earth, to a better land I know,
I hear their gentle voice calling “Old Black Joe.”
I’m coming, I’m coming,
For my head is bending low.
I hear the gentle voices calling “Old Black Joe.”

Red River Valley


From this valley they say you are leaving.
We will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile;
For you take with you all of the sunshine,
That has brightened our lives for a while.

Chorus:
Then come and sit by my side if you love me.
Do not hasten to bid me adieu.
But remember the Red River Valley
And the cowboy that loved you so true.

Home on the Range


Oh, give me a home where the buffalo roam,
Where the deer and the antelope play;
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word,
And the skies are not cloudy all day.

Chorus:
Home, home on the range,
Where the deer and antelope play;
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word,
And the skies are not cloudy all day.

How often at night when the heavens are bright,


With the light from the glittering stars,
Have I stood there amazed and asked as I gazed,
If their glory exceeds that of ours.

Carabao Dance
One carabao went out one day

Dreams, Dreams
Love grows under the wilk oak tree,
Sugar flows like candy;
The top of the mountain gleams like gold
When you kiss your little honey sort of handy.

One for you and me.
Dream, dreams, sweet dreams,
One for you and me, oh!

Smile A While
Smile a while and give your face a rest,
Stretch a while and cool your manly chest.
Reach your hands up to the sky,
While you watch them with your eyes.
Jump a while and shake a leg there, sir.
Now step forward, backward, as you were;
Reach your hands to someone near,
Shake his hand and smile.

I’m a little prairie flow'r
A-growing wilder ev’ry hour.
Nobody seems to cultivate me
I’m as wild as wild can be.

I’m a little snowflake white


A falling in a cold night.
There ain’t no one to cuddle me up
'Cause I’m as cold, as cold can be.

I’m a little acorn bright


A lying in the cold cold night.
There ain’t no one to pick me up
'Cause I’m a nut, yes, I’m a nut!

Just the same, (full arm sweep to the left)
And the smoke goes up the chimney just the same.

Our honored guests are here,


Our honored guests are here,
Stand up now and take a bow,
Our honored guests are here.

Now
A time to be happy is now.
A place to be happy is here.
And the way to be happy,
Is to make others happy,
And to build a little heaven down here.

Mabuhay
Deutschland toasts with “Prosit”
Sweden answers “Skoal”
England says “Here’s Cheerio”
And lifts the flowing bowl.

Japan shouts her “Banzai”
But out in the Philippines
You’ll hear this cheery cry:

We say “Mabuhay!”
We say “Mabuhay!”
Under the blue skies
When our friends pass by.
A greeting, a farewell,
A toast that will wear well;
We raise our voice
And say “Mabuhay!”

Farewell Songs

Auld Lang Syne


Should old acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
And days of Auld Lang Syne?

For Auld Lang Syne, my dear


For Auld Lang Syne;
We’ll take a cup of kindness yet
For Auld Lang Syne.

We tea ha’o ran about the braes


And pu’d the gowans fine,
We’re wander’d mony a weary foot
Sin Auld lang Syne.

We twa ha’e sported I the burn


Frae mornin’ sun till dine
But seas between us braid ha’e roared
Sin Auld Lang Syne.

And here’s hand my trusty friend


And gie’s hand o’ thine;
We’ll take a cup of kindness yet,
For Auld lang Syne.

Now We Are Parting


Now we are parting,
Our heart are breaking,
Mem’ries shall bind us
Forever.

May God attend us,


Guide us and bless us,
Where’er fate bring us,
Friends, farewell.

Going Home
Now the long long time of waiting is over,
With a pack on my back today;
And a great big smile knowing life’s worth while,
Just because I’m on my way.

Going home, going home,


To the place were I long to be.
Going home, going home,
To the one’s waiting patiently.

There’s a light that’s burning by the window,


And it’s shining just for me;
Going home, going home,
Safe and sound from the bounding sea.
Good Luck, Good Health, God Bless You
Good luck, good health, God bless you,
That’s all my heart can say;
Good luck, good health, God bless you,
And guide you on your way.
No matter where you wander
As long as we’re apart;
Good luck, good health, God bless you and keep you
And keep me still in your heart.

Thank You
Thank you, thank you,
We have a nice together.
Thank you, thank you,
This day we’ll always remember.

By The Blazing Council Fire’s Light


(Till We Meet Again)

By the blazing council fire’s light,


We have met in fellowship tonight.
Round about the whisp’ring trees
Guard our golden memories.

And so before we close our eyes in sleep,


Let us pledge each other that we’ll keep,
Scouting friendships, strong and deep,
Till we meet again.
Farewell
Fare thee well, luck be with you
When your far, remember us.

Aloha Oe
Proudly sweeps the rain-cloud o’er the cliff,
Borne swiftly by the western gale;
While the song of lover’s parting grief,
Sadly echoes amid the flowering vale.

Farewell to thee, farewell to thee,


The winds will carry back my sad refrain;
One fond embrace before we say goodbye,
Until we meet again.

Hanggang sa Muli
(Aloha)

Sa inyo kami’y paalam na,


Hanggang sa muling pagkikita;
Ang ugali ninyong maganda
Ay taglay sa aming ala-ala.

Paalam na, o paalam,


Mga kamanlalaro’t kaibigan;
Kayo'y di naming malilimutan,
Magpakailan pa man.
May The Good Lord Bless And Keep You

May the good Lord bless and keep you,


Whether near or far away,
May you find that long awaited golden day today.
May your troubles all be small ones,
And your fortune ten times ten,
May the good Lord bless and keep you,
Till we meet again.

May you walk with sunlight shining,


And a bluebird in every tree;
May there be a silver lining,
Back of every cloud you see.

Fill your dreams with sweet tomorrow,


Never mind what might have been;
May the good Lord bless and keep you,
Till we meet again.

Good Night Ladies


Good night ladies,
Good night ladies,
Good night ladies,
We’re going to live you now.
Merrily we roll along,
Roll along, roll along,
Merrily we roll along,
Over the dark blue sea.
Now is the Hour

Now is the hour,


When we must say goodbye;
Soon you’ll be sailing,
Far across the sea.

While you’re away,


Oh, please remember me;
When you return,
You’ll find me waiting here.

Shalom
Shalom chaverim,

Folk Songs

Leron Leron Sinta


Leron, leron sinta, umakyat sa papaya;
Dala-dala’y buslo, sisidlan ng bunga.
Pagdating sa dulo’y, nabali ang sanga;
Kapos kapalaran, humanap ng iba.

Gumising ka neneng, tayo’y manampalok;


Dalhin mo ang buslo’t, sisidlan ng hinog.
Pagdating sa dulo’y, lalamba-lambayog;
Kumapit ka neneng, baka ka mahulog.

Bahay Kubo
Bahay kubo, kahit munti;
Ang halaman doon, ay sari-sari.
Singkamas at talong.
Sigarilyas at mani,
Sitaw, bataw, patani.
Kundol, patola, upo’t kalabasa,
At saka mayroon pang labanos, mustasa.
Sibuyas. kamatis. bawang at luya,
Sa palibot nito ay puno ng linga.

Doon Po Sa Amin
Doon pa sa amin,
Bayan ng San Roque.
May nagkatuwaang
Apat na pulubi.
Nagsayaw ang pilay,
Nanood ang bulag,
Kumanta ang pipi,
Nakinig ang bingi.

Doon po sa amin,
Bayan ng Malabon,
May isang matandang
Nagsaing ng apoy.
Papel ang palayok,
Papel pati tuntong,
Tubig na malamig,
Ang iginagatong.

Aking Bituin
O, ilaw, sa gabing malamig,
Wangis mo’y bituin sa langit.
O tanglaw, sa gabing madilim,
Larawan mo Neneng, nagbigay pasakit -- ay!

Gising at magbangon sa pagkagupiling,


Sa pagkakatulog na lubhang mahimbing.
Buksan ang bintana at ako’y dungawin
Ng mapagtanto mo ang tunay kong pagdaing.

Chichiritchit
Chichiritchit alibangbang,
Salaginto at salagubang,
Ang babae sa lansangan,
Kung gumiri’y parang tandang.

Santo Niño sa Pandacan,


Puto seco sa tindahan,
Kung ayaw kang magpautang,
Uubusin ka ng langgam.

Mama, mama, namamangka,


Pasakayin yaring bata,
Pagdating sa Maynila,
Ipagpalit ng manika.

Ale, ale namamayong,


Pasukubin yaring sanggol,
Pagdating sa Malabon,
Ipagpalit ng bagoong.

Awit Ng Kaldero
Inday, inday sa balitaw,
Kahoy nakapahay,
Sandok nakasuksok,
Palayok nakataob,
Sinyansing nakabaluktot,
Sinigang na matabang,
Kulang sa sampalok.

Sarong Bangui
(The Bicolano’s Popular Love Song)

Sarong Bangui, sa higdaan,


Nakadangog ako hinuni nin sarong gamgam.
Saluba ko, katurogan
Bako kundi simong boses, iyon palan.

Dagos ako bangon si sakayang mata iminuklat


Duman sa kadikloman ako nangalagkalag
Kesu pagheling ko pasiring sa itaas
Simong lanog nahiling ko maliwanag.

Balik a ko sa higdaan
Idtong bision dai ko na nanggad malingawan
Napipinta sa sakong daghan
Anong guibohon ko, sain man paduman.

Baka Maputikan
Bukid ay basa, tag-ulan noon,
May mutyang biglang sa aki’y nagtanong,
Kung nais ko raw siya ay tutulong,
Sa pagtatanim ko ng palay maghapon.

Kahit na ano ang aking sabihin,


Ang pagtulong niya ay di ko mapigil;
Ang sabi ko pa, huwag na Neneng ko,
At mapuputikan lamang ang bakya mo.

Basta’t Mahal Kita


Isipin mong basta’t mahal kita,
Wala namang magagawa sila.
Maging ako’y kausap ng iba,
Walang dapat ipangamba.
Basta’t mahal kita’y sapat na ‘yan,
Ituring mong sumpa kailan pa man.
Basta’t mahal kita’y
Kasiyahan nitong buhay.

Kahit tayo’y di magkita,


Sa puso ko’y kapiling ka;
Basta’t mahal kita sa gabi’t araw,
Basta’t mahal kita’y kasiyahan.

Ang Tangi Kong Pag-ibig


Ang tangi kong pag-ibig
Ay minsan lamang;
Ngunit ang iyong akala, ay hindi tunay.
Hindi ka lilimutin, magpakilan pa man;
Habang ako ay narito, at may buhay.

Malasin mo’t nagtitiis ng kalungkutan,


Ang buhay kong unti-unti nang pumapanaw;
Wari ko ba sinta, ako’y mamamatay,
Kung di ikaw ang kapiling habang buhay.

Dungawin Mo Hirang

(1)
Irog ko’y pakinggan awit na mapanglaw,
Na nagbuhat sa isang pusong nagmamahal;
Huwag mong ipagkait, awa mo’y ilawit,
Sa abang puso kong naghihirap sa pag-ibig.
(2)
Dungawin mo hirang ang nananambitan,
Kahit sulyap mo man lamang iyong idampulay;
Sapagkat ikaw lamang ang tanging dalangin,
Ng puso kong dahil sa iyo’y nabubuhay.

(instrumental) (repeat from2)

Dahil Sa Iyo
Sa buhay ko’y lagi ang hirap at pasakit,
Mandi’y wala ng langit ang pusong umiibig.
At nang lumigaya, hinango mo sa dusa,
Tanging ikaw sinta, ang aking pagasa.

Dahil sa iyo, nais kong mabuhay.


Dahil sa iyo, hangang mamatay;
Dapat mong tantuin, wala nang ibang giliw;
Puso ko’y tanungin, ikaw at ikaw rin.

Dahil sa iyo, ako’y lumigaya;


Pagmamahal ay alayan ka.
Kung tunay man ako ay alipinin mo,
Ang lahat ng ito'y, dahil sa iyo.

Dalagang Pilipina
Ang dalagang Pilipina,
Parang tala sa umaga.
Kung tanawin ay nakaliligaya;
May ningning na tangi’t dakilang ganda.
Maging sa ugali, maging sa kumilos;
Mayumi’t mahinhin lahat ang kanyang anyo.
Malinis ang puso maging sa pag-irog,
May ganda at tibay ng loob.

Bulaklak na tanging marilag


Ang bango ay humahalimuyak.
Sa mundo’y dakilang pang-hiyas,
Pang-aliw sa pusong may hirap.
Batis ng ligaya at galak,
Hantungan ng madlang pangarap,
Iyan ang dalagang Pilipina
Karapat-dapat sa isang tunay na pagsinta.

Katakataka
Katakatakang mahibang ang katulad ko saiyo,
Birubiro ang simula ang wakas pala ay ano;
Aayaw-ayaw pa ako ngunit yan ay hindi totoo,
Dahil sa iyo puso kong ito'y binihag mo.

Alaala ka maging gabit araw,


Alipinin mo’y walang kailangan;
Marinig ko lang sa labi mo hirang,
Na ako’y iibigin lagi habang buhay.

Sampaguita
Mabangong bulaklak ng lahi
Sampaguitang sakdal ng yumi
Kung ikaw ay kuwintas na yari
Nagniningning ka sa uri
Sa leeg ng isang dalaga
Hiyas kang sakdal pinipita
Ganda mo’y may taglay na gayuma
Bango mo'y may dulot na ligaya.

Mapalad ka pagka’t sa hardin ng puso


Ikaw ay bulaklak na pinipintuho
At sa bayan diwa kang pumapatnubay
Ang bayan ay di mamamatay.
O sampaguita
Tanging bulaklak ng puso
Sama tayo hanggang langit.

Lulay
Anong laking hirap
Kung paka-iisipin
Ang gawang umibig
Sa babaing mahinhin.
Lumalakad ka na’y
Di ka pa man din pansin,
Sa hirap ika’y kanyang susubukin.

Koro:
Ligaya ng buhay
Babaing sakdal inam
Ang halaga niya’y
Di-matutumbasan
Kahinhinan niya’y tanging kayamanan.
Maalaala Mo Kaya

Maalaala m kaya
Ang sumpa mo sa akin
Na ang pag-ibig mo ay sadyang di magmamaliw.

Kung nais mong matanto


Buksan ang aking puso
At tanging larawan mo ang doo’y nakatago.

Di ka kaya magbago
Sa iyong pagmamahal?
Hinding hindi giliw ko
Hanggang sa libingin, ay!
O, kay sarap mabuhay, lalo na’t may lambingan
Ligaya sa puso ko ay di na mapaparam.

Lahat ng Araw (Silayan)


(1)
Sa bawat sandali, tayo ay magkapiling,
Ang bawat lunggati pakinggan ang hiling;
Ang puso ko’t budhi ay hindi sinungaling,
Sana ay ulinigin, damdamin ko giliw.

(2)
Asahan pangarap nitong buhay
Lahat ng araw kita’y mamahalin.
Sa labi ng imbing kamatayan
Itangi yaring pagmamahal.
Tulutang magtapat sa iyo hirang
Lahat ng araw kita’y mamahalin

Silayan at bigyan ng pag asa,
Pagmamahal pusong nagdurusa;
Iwasan ang pag-aalinlangan,
Lahat ng araw kita’y mamahalin.

Sa labi ng imbing kamatayan,


Itangi yaring pagmamahal;
Tulutan magtapat sa iyo hirang,
Lahat ng araw kita’y mamahalin.
Lahat ng araw kita’y mamahalin.

Magtanim Ay Di Biro
Magtanim ay ‘di biro, maghapong nakayuko.
‘Di naman makatayo, ‘di naman makaupo.
Braso ko’y namimitig, baywang ko’y nangangawit,
Binti ko’y namamanhid sa pagkababad sa tubig.

Kung umaga’t magising kaagad iisipin,


Kung saan may patanim, masarap ang pagkain.
Magtanim hindi biro maghapong nakayuko,
Di naman makatayo di naman makaupo.

Refrain:
Halina, halina mga kaliyag, tayo’y magsipag-unat-unat.
Magpanibago tayo ng lakas, para sa araw ng bukas.
Enga! Karabaw

Koro:
Enga! Karabaw-baw, Enga! Karabaw –baw
Enga! Karabaw-baw-baw-bi- baw. (repeat)

Diri sa amon barrio may isa ka karabaw


Gatubog sa turogban, ngalan nya’y si tiyo karabaw.

Wala gid siya gakadlaw, kag wala man gakusmud.


Kay man ini nga karabaw, wala onto sa ibabaw.

Ga obra siya sa aga, subong man sa kahaponan;


Kag kon siya na mag luya, aton siya nga i-hawon.

Sinisinta Kita
Kung ang sinta’y ulilahin
Sino pa kayang tatawagin?
Kung hindi si Neneng kong giliw;
Naku, kay layo sa piling.

Malayo man, malapit din,


Pilit ko ring mararating;
Huwag lamang masabi mong
Di kita ginigiliw.

Ginigiliw kitang tunay,


Alaala gabi’t araw;
At di na mapalagay,
Lagi kang hinihintay.

Sinisinta kita, di ka kumikibo,


Akala mo yata ako’y nagbibiro;
Saksi ko ang langit, sampu ng kanduro,
Kundi kita sinta, puputok ang puso.

Itik-Itik
Ang ibig ko sa bawa’t saglit,
Ay itik-itik ang marinig;
Kung ang sayaw mo’y minamasid,
Nagagalak ang aking dibdib.
At sa tugtog na walang patid,
Hindi na lamang nababatid;
Na sa iyo ay nananabik,
Ang aking pusong umiibig.

Katulad mo ay isang itik,


Sa akin ay liligid-ligid;
Kaya ako ay kahit maidlip,
Ngalan mo rin ang nasasambit.
Kung himig ang siyang mababanggit,
At sayaw na kaakit-akit;
Mayroong pa bang unang hihigit,
Sa itik-itik na kay rikit.

Tinikling
Tayo’y magsayaw irog ko ng Tinikling,
Tulad ng sayaw ng lolo’t lola natin;
Ang mga hakbang kung di pagbubutihin,
Dalawang kawayan tayo’y iipitin.
Kung nagsasayaw ka irog ng Tinikling,
Kumpas ng kawayan kahit mapatulin;
Ang mga binti mo’y kay hirap hulihin,
Sing ilap din ng puso mo sa paggiliw.

Koro:
At sa tinikling na tigib ng panganib,
Ang hindi maingat naiipit;
Pusong maharot ganyan din sa pagibig,
Ang nakakamit paghakbang ay ligalig.

Ang nagsasayaw ay napapahalakhak,


Kumpas ng kawayan kay ingay ng lagpak;
Habang nagsasayaw ang tunog ng palakpak,
Ang nanonood man ay napapaindak.

Rosing
Rosing nga gina handum ko
Nga sang gugma, ikaw Rosing ginhalaran.
Nga kasubo ining bu-ot ko,
Kon dili ta ikaw Rosing mankit-an.

Daw malumos sa sentimiento,


Ining pobre kag ka-ilo ko nga dughan;
Baslay ang katulad kag kahapdi
Ang gin bilin mo sa akon Rosing
Isang handumanan.

Koro:
Ay, Rosing nga nag sikway
Sining pobreng walay palad
Balikda man Rosing, balikda
Naga hulat sang pulong mo nga matam-is
Ang gin sa-ad mo sa akon Rosing
Isang hadumanan.

successful conduct of Scouting programs and activities.
