Translation of the song Napakasakit Kuya Eddie artist Roel Cortez
Napakasakit Kuya Eddie
It Hurts so Much, Eddie
Ako'y naririto, nagbabanat ng buto
Here I am, my bones all hurting
Sa mainit na syudad sa bansa ng Arabyano
In a hot city in Arabia
Anong hirap talaga ang kumita ng pera
It's been hard to make a living
Kakapal ang iyong kamay, masusunog pa ang kulay
The work has hardened and burned my hands
Sa aking pagtulog, ang laging iniisip
When I get to rest, I always find myself thinking
Bumilis na ang araw upang ako'y makabalik
Of the day I can finally come back
Itinigil ang bisyo, alak, sugal, sigarilyo
I've given up my habits, drinking, gambling, and smoking
Upang makaipon, magtitiis na lang ako
Till I save up what I need, I will endure
Napakasakit, Kuya Eddie
It hurts so much, Eddie
Ang sinapit ng aking buhay
To see what fate has brought me
Napakasakit, Kuya Eddie
It hurts so much, Eddie
Sabihin mo kung ano ang gagawin
Please tell me what I should do
At ako ay natuwa, sumulat ang aking anak
I was delighted to see my son wrote to me
Ako ay nabigla, at agad ay lumuha
But that soon turned to shock, and I began to cry
Itay, umuwi ka, dalian mo lang sana
Dad, come home, be quick
Si Inay ay may iba, nagtataksil sa 'yo, Ama
Mom is with someone else, she's been cheating on you
Napakasakit, Kuya Eddie
It hurts so much, Eddie
Ang sinapit ng aking buhay
To see what fate has brought me
Napakasakit, Kuya Eddie
It hurts so much, Eddie
Sabihin mo kung ano ang gagawin
Please tell me what I should do
At ako ay umuwi, gabi na nang dumating
So I went back home, it was already dark out
Ang dalawa kong anak, sa malayo nakatingin
My two children watched me approach from afar
Mata'y namumula, halos nakapikit na
Their eyes were bloodshot and drowsy
Ang kanilang kamay, may hawak na mariwana
In their hands, I spotted marijuana
Ngunit ang masakit, ako'y nagtataka
I could tell they were hurting, I wondered why
Dalawa naming anak, bakit ngayon ay tatlo na?
I know I have two of my own, but why is there a third now?
Mahal kong asawa, may kasama na syang iba
My beloved wife, she'd been with someone else
Ang lupit naman, dala pa ang aking pera
As for what's become of us, I have all the money
Napakasakit, Kuya Eddie
It hurts so much, Eddie
Ang sinapit ng aking buhay
To see what fate has brought me
Napakasakit, Kuya Eddie
It hurts so much, Eddie
Sabihin mo kung ano ang gagawin
Please tell me what I should do
Napakasakit, Kuya Eddie
It hurts so much, Eddie
Ang sinapit ng aking buhay
To see what fate has brought me
Napakasakit, Kuya Eddie
It hurts so much, Eddie
Sabihin mo kung ano ang gagawin
Please tell me what I should do
