Latinos react to KZ Tandingan《给孩子》To Children "Singer 2018" | REACTION

[@labellavita12]

Anak (English translation) Child The day you were born to this world Your parents were full of joy And their arms are your light And your mother and father Worries and don't know what to do Watches over you even in your sleep And in the night, a sleepless night, your mother Is still awake to prepare your milk And in the morning you are in the laps Of your father, who is so joyful because of you Now you are all grown up You desire to be independent Even if your parent forbid, they can't stop you Isn't it you that changed a lot Disobeyed them, remained stubborn And you did not follow their advice You did not took the time To think about all the things they've done for you For you desire, only what is pleasurable You just ignored them And the days has past And you took a wrong turn in life You are imprisoned in a horrible vice And you first approach Your dear crying mother And asked "Child, what happened to you?" And your eyes immediately shed tears Without you noticing Regretful and you realized That you were at fault

Wow! You picked up the vibe “begging to be forgiven” without understanding the language! That is so spot-on! I just love your reactions because you truly “get” what music is all about. 👍🏻

[@judithtorres4409]

I know! I was so amazed at how perceptive Wale is. This is also testimony to Freddie Aguilar’s gift of translating his intent into music. And KZ and the musical arranger’s talent in intensifying the message of the song further! Almost too heartbreaking to hear. It’s a situation no parent wants for their child

[@bienbalajadia8345]

Freddie Aguilar Anak (English Version) Lyrics When you were born into this world Your mom and dad saw a dream fulfilled Dream come true The answer to their prayers You were to them a special child Gave 'em joy every time you smiled Each time you cried They're at your side to care Child, you don't know You'll never know how far they'd go To give you all their love can give To see you through and God it's true They'd die for you, if they must, to see you here How many seasons came and went So many years have now been spent For time ran fast And now at last you're strong Now what has gotten over you You seem to hate your parents too Do speak out your mind Why do you find them wrong Child you don't know You'll never know how far they'd go To give you all their love can give To see you through and God it's true They'd die for you, if they must, to see you near And now your path has gone astray Child you ain't sure what to do or say You're so alone No friends are on your side And child you now break down in tears Let them drive away your fears Where must you go Their arms stay open wide 2X [Child you don't know You'll never know how far they'd go To give you all their love can give To see you through and God it's true They'd die for you, if they must, to see you

[@kithsgascon5501]

Ferdinand Pascual Aguilar known as Freddie Aguilar or Ka Freddie Aguilar, wrote a song entitled “Anak” which talks about this kind of matter. Freddie Aguilar is a Filipino folk musician who composes eloquent songs that could capture ones minds and hearts because of its message. His song, “Anak” became popular for its enlightening meaning that everyone could relate to. This song won double platinum award weeks after it was released in the country. The song did not only become popular in the Philippines, but also in different parts of the world. Freddie Aguilar did not only write “Anak” for others, but he also wrote this for himself as he could closely relate to it. When he was 18 years old, his father wanted him to be a lawyer, but he failed to acknowledge his father’s expectation for he left their home. He took a trip to faraway places alongside with only his guitar. Without having the guidance of his parents, he became addicted to gambling. After this, he realized his mistakes and decided to compose the song “Anak” for his parents as a way of asking for forgiveness. His parents welcomed Freddie home even after he disobeyed them. They also became closer after his parents read the lyrics of the classic song. Ka Freddie’s song, “Anak” did not only become popular because of its wonderful melody, but it was also known for its lyrics that articulate about family values. The message of this song is nearly identical to The Parable of The Prodigal Son. It’s about the everlasting love of parents to their children even in the moments wherein they are being disobeyed or rebelled against. The lesson of the song is no matter how much we push away our parents because of our obscure reasoning, we will always end up running back to them. Our parents will always be our home; our only companion in this world full of enemies. Hence, I do not believe in being independent because I know we will always be somehow dependent to our parents. Also, because I believe that they are the backbone of every decision and actions that we do. I recommend Freddie Aguilar’s song, “Anak” to be heard by the youth today. This is for the reason that most of the youngsters today tend to get their influences from modern media and they are not often supervised with it. As a result, some forgets to value and give respect to adults and to their parents. So as they listen to the song, they may cultivate lessons from it and apply it to their lives. Lastly, as they listen to Ka Freddie’s “Anak” they would learn how to value more their parents and realize the greatest love their fathers and mothers are giving to them that started ever since they were born. Listen and sing along with this extraordinary OPM classic song!

[@zacariascapendit2502]

I thought you will not ever react to this Anak version of KZ. Watched this as soon as i woke up LOL! I love this version of hers. There are other KZ songs that you havent reacted yet which to me are as amazing as this track. KZ's version of TADHANA (by UDD) on the Wish Bus is also aaawesome!

[@carabbacanchristianjoyp.1045]

The actual title of the song is "Anak". It is a classic Filipino song by Freddie Aguilar. KZ just made her version of the song with Chinese lyrics.

[@MikkosFree]

Anak is a remnant of the golden age of Filipino modern culture. It crossed over oceans, having translations in multiple Asian languages. To the point that in each country, it's considered a "classic" hit. And as beautiful as KZ's rendition is, there was something soul-shattering about the way Freddie Aguilar sang this song, the same way a parent said something that made you suddenly shameful of what you have been doing with your life.

[@jaysonrivera8128]

Literal lyric’s translation - she was singing/ saying, “in your mind, you regret what you did, because YOU MADE A MISTAKE= IKA’Y NAGKAMALI. The theme of the song revolves around a very emotional interaction between a child and parents. Waleska’s instictive analysis is about 95 % accurate most of the time. BTW Tagalog place tremendous emphasis on every single Vowels of each word ie.. AkO Ay pIlIpInO= I’m Filipino. A= Ahhh E= Ehhhhh I= Eeeeeee O= Ohhhhh U=Oooooooo. 1) AkO= Ahhhh kOhhhhh = me, I am . 2) hIndI= heeeen deeee = No. 3) Oo = Ohhh Ohhhh= yes. I hope these helps🇵🇭.
