Freddie Aguilar "Pulubi" lyrics

Pulubi

Ang suot niya ay lumang-lumaAt ang kanyang mga mata’y malamlamBanaag mo sa kanyang mukha ang kahirapan

Maghapon siya sa mga daanNanghihingi ng kaunting tulongAt madalas niyo siyang hamakin at libakin

CHORUSSiya ay pulubi, hinahamak ninyoSiya ay pulubi, tao ring katulad niyo

At pagsapit ng dilimWala man lang siyang matutuluyanSa lamig ng paligid, walang makublihan

Kailan niyo siya kaaawaanKailan niyo siya mauunawaan‘Pag ang lahat ay huli na, siya’y lilimusan

[Repeat CHORUS 2X]

The Beggar

His clothes are worn outAnd his eyes are sullenIn his face alone you perceive poverty

All day long he is at the streetsAsking for little helpAnd oftentimes you despise and insult him

CHORUSHe is a beggar, whom you are despisingHe is a beggar, a person just like you

And when the night comesHe doesn't have any shelterIn the cold of the surroundings, nowhere to escape from

When will you have mercy on him?When will you try to understand him?Only when it is too late, that you give him alms
