i first heard of this song while i was watching eat bulaga last week. the singer, ms manilyn reynes, had to cut it short as she only sung it as a sample of her talent for a particular segment of the show. but boy... i was already moved! i promised myself to check the net if i have time for the lyrics and if possible, any video in you tube. i guess i'm lucky as there is a video.
here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QM__4V0F3hA
the song is dedicated for the working moms particularly those working overseas. i am not a fan of manilyn reynes but i swear, there's something in her voice that made the song more sentimental, more heartfelt, and more tear-jerking.

it's a nice song and it's a good thing it's one that i can't really relate to. :)
ReplyDeleteme too, i felt like crying when I watched it though :)
ReplyDeleteditto sis... but we can't help but feel sorry for those who can relate, those who have to leave their kids behind to earn money abroad. =(
ReplyDeleteako din, naiiyak everytime i listen to that song. motherhood made me more emotional... =)
ReplyDeletei just finished listening/watching the video...sad for those families who have to endure this...am thinking most OFW families can relate =(
ReplyDeletei pray that we need not be away from our kids to be able to provide them well like the moms in Manilyn's song.
