Sa Ugoy Ng Duyan Song - Lucio Payapang Daigdig- Felipe de

San Pedro Leon


Sana'y di magmaliw ang dati kong araw
Nang munti pang bata sa piling ni nanay Ang gabiy payapa
Nais kong maulit ang awit ni inang
mahal
Lahat ay tahimik
Awit ng pag-ibig habang ako'y nasa Pati mga tala
duyan
Sa bughaw na langit
Sana'y di magmaliw ang dati kong araw
Nang munti pang bata sa piling ni nanay
Nais kong maulit ang awit ni inang
Kay hinhin ng hangin
mahal Waring umiibig
Awit ng pag-ibig habang ako'y nasa
duyan Sa kapayapaan
Refrain:
Ng buong daigdig
Sa aking pagtulog na labis ang himbing
Ang bantay ko'y tala, ang tanod ko'y Payapang panahon
bituin
Sa piling ni nanay, langit ay buhay Ay diwa ng buhay
Puso kong may dusa sabik sa ugoy ng Biyaya ng Diyos
duyan
Sa sangkatauhan
Sana'y di magmaliw ang dati kong araw
Nang munti pang bata sa piling ni nanay
Nais kong maulit ang awit ni inang
mahal
Awit ng pag-ibig habang ako'y nasa
duyan

Sa aking pagtulog na labis ang himbing


Ang bantay ko'y tala, ang tanod ko'y
bituin
Sa piling ni nanay, langit ay buhay
Puso kong may dusa sabik sa ugoy ng
duyan

Nais kong matulog sa dating duyan ko,
