Magkaisa - Virna Lisa

At this moment, the former President is being laid to rest, beside the late Senator Ninoy, her husband. It's their reunion, another "oneness"!

You will always be remembered Madam! You have always acknowledged the presence of God in your life. You embody the majority of the Filipino people during our plight against poverty and oppression. As Filipinos, we always seek the Guidance of the Almighty and that's what you taught us. We will never forget how you led this nation towards freedom while you are backed with the hands of God.

Your faithfulness can never be equalled and so we give you thanks.

As you meet with the Lord, remember us, intercede for us. Join us in once again praying for this nation.

Goodbye my lady, goodbye Madam President!

Here is my translation for the song widely associated with EDSA Revolution, the triumphant moment of the Filipinos, headed by the first, the honorable, lady President, Madam Cory!

Ngayon ganap ang hirap sa mundo (Currently, poverty is widespread)
Unawa ang kailangan ng tao (Understanding is what the people needs)
Ang pagmamahal sa kapwa'y ilaan (Reserve your love to your fellows)
Isa lang ang ugat na ating pinagmulan (We came from only one root)
Tayong lahat ay magkakalahi (All of us are related)
Sa unos at agos ay huwag padadala (Don't be lead by storms and flow)

Chorus
Panahon na (may pag-asa kang matatanaw) (It is time...) (hope is in sight)
Ng pagkakaisa (bagong umaga, bagong araw) (...to unite) (new morning, new day)
Kahit ito (sa atin Siya'y nagmamahal) (Even if this...) (He/God loves us)
Ay hirap at dusa (is pain and suffering)
Magkaisa (may pag-asa kang matatanaw) (Let us unite...) (Hope is in sight)
At magsama (bagong umaga, bagong araw) (...and let others join) (new morning, new day)
Kapit-kamay (sa atin Siya'y nagmamahal) (Hold hands...) (He/God loves us)
Sa bagong pag-asa (...in this new hope)

Ngayon may pag-asang natatanaw (Now, hope is in sight)
May bagong araw, bagong umaga (There is a new day, a new morning)
Pagmamahal ng Diyos, isipin mo tuwina (Love of God, Think of it always)

(Repeat Chorus)

Magkaisa (may pag-asa kang matatanaw)
At magsama (bagong umaga, bagong araw)
Kapit-kamay (sa atin Siya'y nagmamahal)
Sa bagong pag-asa
