Nandito Ako (Lea Salonga) - Cover by @me2selah

in #music3 years ago

Hello Hive Community!

How are you today? Hoping all is well with everyone. Today I am sharing another cover song. A song originally sang by Miss Lea Salonga. This song is in Filipino, entitled "Nandito Ako."

Here is the lyrics : (source azlyrics.com)

"Nandito Ako"

Mayroon akong nais malaman
Maari bang mag tanong
Alam mo bang matagal na kitang iniibig
Matagal na 'kong naghihintay

Ngunit, mayroon kang ibang minamahal
Kung kaya't ako'y di mo pinapansin
Ngunit ganoon pa man, nais kong malaman mo
Ang puso kong ito'y para lang sa iyo

[CHORUS:]
Nandito ako umiibig sa iyo
Kahit na, nagdurugo ang puso
Kung sakaling, iwanan ka niya
Huwag kang mag alaala
May nagmamahal sa iyo
Nandito ako

Kung ako ay iyong iibigin
'Di kailangan ang mangamba
Pagka't ako ay para mong alipin
Sa iyo lang wala nang iba

Ngunit mayroon ka nag ibang minamahal
Kung kaya't ako'y di mo pinapansin
Ngunit ganoon pa man nais kong malaman mo
Ang puso kong ito'y para lang sa iyo

Nandito ako umiibig sa iyo
Kahit na nagdurugo ang puso
Kung sakaling iwanan ka niya
Huwag kang mag alaala
May nagmamahal sa iyo
Nandito ako

[Repeat Chorus one more time]

Nandito....ako....

Singing a cover song is one thing but based on how litigious some are in the music industry I wouldn't be surprised if someone tried to argue that copying lyrics from azlyrics.com to your blog was copyright infringement.

thank you for taking the time to read my blog. I'm sorry if broke a rule on copying lyrics from other sites. I thought it's okay because I stated the source... Newbie in blogging here in the Hive community. Thank you for reminding me.

It's not necessarily a "rule" but it's something that's probably best to avoid. A Wikipedia entry describes it as a copynorm. If I were you I'd just use a link to the lyrics and have the text of the blog post be about how the song makes you feel or how it brings up a memory. It's not legal advice but just what I'd do to avoid a possible lawsuit or getting put on a Hive blacklist.

As an example here is a post I wrote a few months ago around Halloween about my favorite "ghost story" song.
