I
Dilim na tila’y ‘di lilipas
Parang humihinto ang oras
At nariyan na naman
Ang sakit ‘di maiwasan
II
Pilit ko mang kalimutan
Sa anino ay sunod-sunuran
O hanggang kailan
Alipin sa nakaraan
Pre-chorus
Ngunit nang ika’y aking tanggapin
Ako’y tuluyan mong naangkin
Chorus
Panginoon, naririto
Wagas na pag-ibig ang alay ko ‘di magmamaliw hanggang wakas
Ang aking pagsuyo ay (‘di na…) ‘di na lilipas
III
Sa iyo ngayon ay umaasa
Ang lagi kong inaalala
Pangako mong tapat
Sa langit nakasulat
IV
Ang samo at pinapangarap
Manatili sa iyong paglingap
Hanggang walang hanggan At magpakailanman
Pre-chorus II
Ama, kamay ko’y abutin
Nang tahanan mo’y aking marating
Repeat chorus
Bridge
Bulong ng puso’y dinggin
At tibok nito ay iyong damhin
Ang laging sinisigaw
Papuri na umaapaw
Repeat chorus (except last word) ….‘di na lilipas
Coda
Ang aking pagsuyo ay ‘di na… ‘di na lilipas O ama ko, ito ang alay ko
Through a “relative” collaboration, Maddonna Rosas and Pau Ortiz were able to fashion a song that relates to offering and dedicating oneself willingly for a divine purpose. Business-driven “Dhoe”, as what Maddonna is fondly called, wrote the lyrics fluidly one night after she humbly asked God for a song then Pau as the singer-instrumentalist cousin in the family added melodies on 6/8 for their song, “Alay Ko”. As ASOP’s finalists for Year 8, both of them are grateful for the opportunity to showcase their familial musicianship to a larger platform seen worldwide. Award-winning artist Brenan Espartinez interpreted their song “Alay Ko” during the weekly and monthly match and will take on the New Frontier Theater stage on Grand Finals Night.
