In two weeks time, a friend of mine is getting married. We’ve been counting down the days and I’m getting into the mood by having in my playlist the songs she chose for the ceremony. This one’s not on her list but besides Ikaw (words by George Canseco and music by Louie Ocampo), this song, I believe, is one that fits the event to a T. Albeit it’s a bit gasgas na to the married folks of old. It’s a true classic -- one of the best written (by George Canseco) in the vernacular as far as romaticism is concerned.

Dahil kaya sa ‘yo ng maitadhanang

Ako’y isilang sa mundo

Upang sa araw-araw ay siyang makapiling mo

Upang ngayon at kailanman

Ikaw ay mapalingkuran hirang

Bakit labis kitang mahal

Pangalawa sa Maykapal

Higit sa ‘king buhay

Malilimot ka lang

Kapag ang araw at bituin ay di na matanaw

Kapag tumigil ang daigdig at di ‘na gumalaw

Subalit isang araw pa matapos ang mundo’y nagunaw na

Hanggang doon magwawakas pag-ibig kong sadyang wagas

Ngayon at kailanman

Ay, corny ko! . More Canseco after the cut…
