Paraluman Gone

By Patrick Bundalian

How can I forget

The night that I died
When Lorena my bride
Was stolen from my side

From her eyes I used to see

Beauty like the Oriental sea
She is a gem of a woman
The incarnation of Paraluman

Oh my dearest Pepito
Let this be my last goodbye
For mama and papa want me to die
By forcing me to marry another guy

My beloved Lorena wait for me

Tonight Ill marry you in front of the sea
Swiftly well sail to Manila well go
This is a secret nobody must know

But woe to the sky

And woe to the sea
If only I stayed for a moment
Lorena wont be stolen from me
So how can I forget
The night that I died
When Lorena my bride
Was stolen from my side
