NANDITO AKO

Mayroon akong nais malaman
There's something I want to know

Maaari bang magtanong
May I ask a question?

Alam mo bang matagal na kitang iniibig
Did you know that I've been loving you a long time?

Matagal na 'kong naghihintay
I've been waiting a long time

Ngunit mayroon kang ibang minamahal
But you love someone else

Kung kaya't ako'y di mo pinapansin
Which is why you don't notice

Ngunit ganun pa man nais kong malaman mo
And yet I want you to know

Ang puso kong ito'y para lang sa iyo
This heart of mine is only for you

Refrain:
Nandito ako umiibig sa iyo
I'm here, loving you

Kahit na nagdurugo ang puso
Though my heart is bleeding

Kung sakaling iwanan ka niya
If she should ever leave you

Huwag kang mag-alala
Don't worry

May nagmamahal sa iyo
Someone loves you

Nandito ako
I'm here

Kung ako ay iyong iibigin
If you were to love me

Di kailangan ang mangamba
No need to worry

Pagka't ako ay para mong alipin
Because I'm your slave

Sa iyo lang wala nang iba
Only for you, no one else

Ngunit mayroon kang ibang minamahal
Kung kaya't ako'y di mo pinapansin
Ngunit ganun pa man nais kong malaman mo
Ang puso kong ito'y para lang sa iyo

Nandito ako umiibig sa iyo
Kahit na nagdurugo ang puso
Kung sakaling iwanan ka niya
Huwag kang mag-alala
May nagmamahal sa iyo
Nandito ako

Nandito ako umiibig sa iyo
Kahit na nagdurugo ang puso
Kung sakaling iwanan ka niya
Huwag kang mag-alala
May nagmamahal sa iyo
Nandito ako
