As usual, giving in to requests for the lyrics of LAKAS-KAMPI-CMD’s standard bearer, presidentiable Gilbert “Gibo” Teodoro’s latest TV commercial/informercial/jingle/campaign song “Lipad” written and performed by the band Rivermaya.

You know it breaks my heart when you Googlers get to my blog not finding what you’re looking for. So here it is, for your viewing and listening pleasure (or disgust — whichever applies).

**The way I’ve been exerting effort transcribing lyrics for these campaign jingles, looks like I should just resurrect my long time dead lyrics blog. **

Lipad
by: Rivermaya

Harapin ang hamon ng pagasa
Harapin ang hamon ng bagong simula
ohhhhhhhh….

Kay tagal mo nang gustong lumipad
Ngunit pangarap mo’y bihag ng kahirapan
Matagal mo nang gustong umangat
Handa ka na pero napabayaan
Hindi mo kasalanan…

Panahon na, gumising
Hawak mo ang susi sa mundo
Sumama…
Para sa lahat ang byaheng ‘to

Harapin ang hamon ng pagasa
Harapin ang hamon ng bagong simula
Pangarap mo’y kusa na lang matutupad
Ngayong handa ka ng lumipad
Ngayong handa ka ng lumipad

Lumipad…lumipad…lumipad…
Ngayong handa ka ng lumipad

(Ahhhh…Sulong Gibo, sulong Gibo…)

Panahon na,lumaban
Hawak mo ang susi sa mundo
Manalig
Kasama si Gibo
Ligtas tayo…

Harapin ang hamon ng pagasa
Harapin ang hamon ng bagong simula
Pangarap mo’y kusa na lang matutupad
Ngayong handa ka ng lumipad
Ngayong handa ka ng lumipad

Lumipad…lumipad…lumipad…

Sulong Gibo
Lipad tayo!

This song of the same title however, from the movie “Dayo sa Mundo ng Elementalia” — “an all-digital, full-length animated film entry to the 2008 Metro Manila Film Festival” sang by no less than Ms. Lea Salonga would have been a better choice. :) After all it has all the elements of “galing” and “lipad” and it’s  both inspirational and meaningful.. Well, just a thought.
