Bebot – Lyrics

Posted by Jerry on 1:21 - September 9, 2007

Well if u have watched the song Bebot by Black Eyed Peas, that i posted before, you will agree that its a really thumping song. So i ding up the net and get the lyrics and the translation.

The searching did yield a good translation in the first go itself. Milkphish has translated the song. Its available here.

First Bebot, the song, is in Tagalog, a Philippine language. Bebot is the Tagalog slang for “hot chick”.

This is just the lyrics. I recommend reading his article as it as some good info and explanations too

Bebot – bebot – bet (3x)
Ikaw ay aking :You are my:
Bebot – bebot – bet (3x)
Ikaw ay aking :You are my:
Bebot – bebot – bet (3x)
Ikaw ay :You are:

Pilipino! – Pilipino! – Pilipino! – Pilipino!
:Filipino! – Filipino! – Filipino! – Filipino!:

 

Hoy pare, pakinggan n’yo ako
:Hey man, all of you listen to me:
Heto na ang tunay na Pilipino
:Here comes the real Filipino:
Galing sa baryo – Sapang Bato
:Came from the barrio – Sapang Bato:
Pumunta ng L.A. – nagtrabaho
:Went to L.A. and labored:
Para makatulong sa Nanay
:In order to help my mother:
Dahil sa hirap ng buhay
:Because life is so hard:
Pero masaya pa rin ang kulay
:But the disposition’s still bright:
Pag kumain – nagkakamay
:When eating – we use our hands:
‘yung kanin – *chicken adobo
:What we eat – chicken adobo:
‘yung balut – binibenta sa kanto
:The *balut – being sold at the corner:
Tagay mo na nga ang baso
:Share the glass already:
Pare ko, inuman na tayo
:My friend, let’s start drinking:(contd.)
