LYRICS:

Ikaw ba'y nalulungkot (Are you sad?)
Naiinip, nababagot? (Are you restless, irritated?)
Ikaw ba'y napapagod (Are you tired)
Araw gabi'y puro kayod? (Working day and night?)

Buhay mo ba'y walang saysay (Your life lost its meaning)
Walang sigla, walang kulay (Lost its fun, lost its color)
Bawa't araw ba'y pareho (Everyday's just the same)
Parang walang pagbabago (And nothing seems to change)

Tara na, biyahe tayo (So, let's go, let's travel)
Kasama ang pamilya (Bring your family)
Barkada at buong grupo (Friends and the whole group)
Para mag-enjoy nang todo. (It'll be totally fun)
