Bituing Marikit
Language: Tagalog (Filipino)
Available translation(s): ENG
Bituing marikit sa gabi ng buhay
Ang bawat kislap mo’y ligaya ang taglay
Yaring aking palad iyong patnubayan
At kahit na sinag ako’y bahaginan.
Natanim sa puso ko yaong isang pag-ibig
Na pinakasasamba sa loob ng dibdib
Sa iyong luningning laging nasasabik
Ikaw ang pangarap Bituing marikit.
Lapitan mo ako, halina bituin
Ating pag-isahin ang mga damdamin
Ang sabik kong diwa’y huwag mong uhawin
Sa batis ng iyong wagas na pag-giliw.

Beautiful Star
Language: English  after the Tagalog (Filipino)
Beautiful Star, in the Night of Life
With each glimmer, you herald great joy
Guide my humbly proffered hands
And even the slightest of beams, grant me.
Contained in my heart, is a Love who thrives
In my heart is your shrine, you are worshipped within
I am filled with anticipation for but a gleam from you
You are my hopeful reverie, Beautiful Star
Come to me, please, my Star
Hold close our love, let us become one
Let not my eager heart thirst
By the eternal stream of your love.
