Текст песни: Motherless Ili-Ili + перевод

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

A long way from home

Ili-ili tulog anay

Wala diri imo nanay

Kadto tienda

Bakal papay

Ili-ili tulog anay

(Hush, sleep for a while.

Your mother is not here.

Went to the market to buy bread.

(Hush, Sleep for a while.

Ili-ili tulog anay

Wala diri imo nanay

Kadto tienda

Bakal papay

Ili-ili tulog anay

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

A long way from home

Chant

Nawawala na ang mga tubig

(Water is disappearing)

Natutuyo na ang mga dagat

(The river is running dry)

Wala ng mainom ang mga bata

(The children have nothing to drink)

Nasaan ka inay

(Where are you mother?)

Natutuyo na an mga dagat

(The river is running dry)

Namamatay na ang mga puno

(The trees are dying)

ang mga hayop

(and the animals)

Ili ili tulog anay

(hush.sleep for a while)
