Kampana ng Simbahan

(Bells of the Church)

Arranged by Jose Deanon

Ding, dong, ding, dong, ding, dong, ding

Kampana ng simbahan ay nanggigising na

The church bells are trying to wake us

At waring nagsasabi na tayo'y magsimba

As if telling us to go to mass

Maggising at magbangon, tayo'y magsilakad

Let's wake up, get up, and start walking

At masiglang tunguhin ang ating simbahan

And joyfully go to our church

KORO: (Refrain)

Ang kampana'y tuluyang nanggigising

The church bells are continually waking us

Upang tayong lahat ay manalangin

So that all of us will pray

Ang bendisyon, kapag nakamtan na

When we receive our blessing

Tayo'y magkakaroon ng higit na pag-asa

We will have more hope in our lives

Kinagisnang Simbang Gabi, huwag nating limutin

Let us not forget the Simbang Gabi from our Childhood

'Pagkat tayo'y may tungkulin sa pananalangin

'cause we have a responsibility to pray

Ang kampana ng simbahan ay nanggigising na

The church bells are waking us

Tayong lahat, manalangin habang nagsisimba

Let's all pray while we are at mass

KORO: (Refrain)

Responsorial Psalm

Setting by: Jose Deanon

---

Let the clouds rain down the Just One,

and the earth bring forth a Savior

Verses:

I will hear what God proclaims; the LORD-for He proclaims peace to his people.

Near indeed is his salvation to those who fear him, glory dwelling in our land.

Kindness and truth shall meet; justice and peace shall kiss.

Truth shall spring out of the earth, and justice shall look down from heaven.

The LORD himself will give his benefits; our land shall yield its increase.

Justice shall walk before him, and salvation, along the way of his steps.

Alleluia

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

Verse:

Raise your voice and tell the Good News;

Behold, the Lord GOD comes with power.

My mouth shall be filled with your praise and I will sing your glory!

Verses:

Be my rock of refuge,

a stronghold to give me safety,

for you are my rock and my fortress.

O my God, rescue me from the hand of the wicked.

For you are my hope, O LORD;

my trust, O God, from my youth.

On you I depend from birth;

from my mother’s womb you are my strength.

I will treat of the mighty works of the LORD;

O God, I will tell of your singular justice.

O God, you have taught me from my youth,

and till the present I proclaim your wondrous deeds.

Responsorial Psalm

Setting by: Jose Deanon

---

My heart exults in the Lord, my Savior.

Verses:

“My heart exults in the LORD,

my horn is exalted in my God.

I have swallowed up my enemies;

I rejoice in my victory.”

“The bows of the mighty are broken,

while the tottering gird on strength.

The well-fed hire themselves out for bread,

while the hungry batten on spoil.

The barren wife bears seven sons,

while the mother of many languishes.”

“The LORD puts to death and gives life;

he casts down to the nether world;

he raises up again.

The LORD makes poor and makes rich,

he humbles, he also exalts.”

“He raises the needy from the dust;

from the dung heap he lifts up the poor,

To seat them with nobles

and make a glorious throne their heritage.”

Alleluia

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

Verse:

O King of all nations and keystone of the Church;

come and save man, whom you formed the dust!

Maligayang Pasko sa iyo, Inang Maria

Merry Christmas to you, Mother Mary

Ilang daang taon na ang lumipas

Hundreds of years have passed

Nang ikaw ay magpasyang

When you decided to

Maging ina ang Tagapagpalaya

Become the mother of the Liberator

Sa mundo, Inang Maria

To the world, Mother Mary

Pinagpala ka ng Diyos Ama

God the Father has blessed you

Maging ang bunga mong Anak ng Diyos

May your fruit be a Son of God

At narito ang Paskong nagmula

And here is Christmas that comes

Sa 'ting mapagmahal na Ama

From our loving Father

Sa pamamagitan mo

Through you

Kundi sa 'yo, mayro'n kaya tayong Pasko

But with you, we can have Christmas

Maligayang Pasko sa iyo, Inang Maria

Merry Christmas to you, Mother Mary

Isang kahilingan pa sana

One more request

Huwag kaming kalilimutan

Don't forget us

Idalangin kami'y matulad

Pray that we may be like

Sa iyo, Inang Maria

You, Mother Mary

At maging huwaran namin tuwina

And always be our model

Ang halimbawa mong nagsilang sa Kanya

Your example that gave birth to Him

Sa 'king paglalakbay sa bundok ng buhay

Sa ligaya't lumbay, maging talang gabay

On my journey through the mountains of life.

In joy and in sorrow, be my guiding star.

Maging aking tulay sa langit kong pakay

Sa bingit ng hukay, tangnan aking kamay

Be my bridge to my destination in heaven

At the brink of the grave, hold my hand.

Sabihin sa Kanya aking dusa at saya

Ibulong sa Kanya, minamahal ko Siya

Tell Him of my suffering and my joy

Whisper to Him that I love Him.

Lyrics by: An Annonymous Jesuit Father

Simbanggabi'y simula ng Pasko, sa puso ng lahing Pilipino.

Tonight marks the beginning of Christmas, in the hearts of the Filipino people.

Siyam na gabi kaming gumigising, sa tugtog ng kampanang walang tigil.

For nine days we wake up, to the sound of bells unceasingly.

KORO: (Refrain)

Maaga kami kinabukasan, lalakad kaming langkay-langkay.

We will start the day early, walking with our arms linked together.

Babatiin ang ninong at ninang ng "Maligayang Pasko po"

Greeting our Godparents with "Merry Christmas"

at hahalik ng kamay.

and we will kiss their hands.

Lahat kami'y masayang-masaya.

We are all so happy.

Busog ang tiyan at puno ang bulsa,

Our tummies are satisfied and our pockets are full,

Hindi namin malimut-limutan,

We cannot forget

ang masarap na puto't suman,

the delicious rice cakes

Matutulog kami ng mahimbing.

as we go back to sleep soundly.

Iniisip ang Bagong Taon natin

We look forward to the New Year

At ang Tatlong Haring darating

and the coming of the Three Kings

sa Pilipinas ay Pasko pa rin!

in the Philippines, it's still Christmas!

Ding dong, ding dong (4x)
