Akala Mo - Aiza Seguerra || Lyrics & Translation

Hi. Sorry it's taking me such an awful long time to post stuff. I've just been busy with academic stuff (I still am, to tell the truth.. And I always will be) and I've been sick the past few days so...

Anyway, Mavel from Agusan del Sur (thank you dear~) suggested that I translate this song to English. It's my first time to watch the music video, though I've heard the song countless times. Aiza is so cute, right? (To hell with everyone who says "what a waste she turned out to be a lesbian" because you know what, it's her life and she aint supposed to put herself in fire just for y'all, and nothing bad with acting how you want to, thanks) I really adore her songs and her as an artist (she also acts and she's really good at it!)


Akala Mo - can be translated as "You thought... (insert presumptions here)" something like that, yep. (You assumed/presumed, you imagined that---) Also, it can be used in the past tense or present tense (informal use, somewhat street language-ish) depending on the context

Akala mo, hindi ko nakita
Maligaya ka 'pag ako ay masaya
Akala mo, hindi ko naisip
Na kasama ako sa iyong panaginip

You thought I didn't see it
You're glad when I'm happy
You thought I never thought of it
That I'm a part of your dreams at night

Bawat sabihin ko, alam ko nakinig ka
Akala mo siguro, hindi ko nakita

Each and and every thing I say, I know you listened to them
Maybe you thought that I never saw it

Akala mo hindi ko pansin
Akala mo hindi ko alam
Mahal mo nga ako kahit hindi mo man sabihin
Akala mo hindi ko napansin

You thought I don't recognize
You thought I don't know
You do love me even if you don't speak of it
You thought I never noticed

Akala mo, hindi ko narinig
Tibok ng puso mo't kaba ng dibdib
Akala mo, hindi ko nadama
Na may kasama ako sa lungkot at saya

You thought I didn't hear it
The beating of your heart and the nervous throb of your chest
You thought I didn't feel
That I have a companion in loneliness and in happiness

Kapag kailangan kita, dumarating ka
Akala mo siguro hindi ko nakita

When I need you, you come
Maybe you thought I didn't see that

Akala mo hindi ko pansin
Akala mo hindi ko alam
Mahal mo nga ako kahit hindi mo man sabihin
Akala mo hindi ko napansin

You thought I don't recognize
You thought I don't know
You do love me even if you don't speak of it
You thought I never noticed

Akala mo hindi ko pansin
Akala mo hindi ko alam
Mahal mo nga ako kahit hindi mo man sabihin
Akala mo hindi ko napansin

You thought I don't recognize
You thought I don't know
You do love me even if you don't speak of it
You thought I never noticed

Akala mo gano'n lang yon
Alam ko 'yon kahit noon
Akala mo hindi ko napansin...

You thought it's just that
I've always known even before
You thought I never noticed...
