  • GOD ! What a great song !!! Congratulations Anak , Phillipines  : I LOVE YOU

  • Thanks for posting!

  • gush this song makes me cry huhuhuhu!!!!!1

  • make me cry

  • this song make me remember my mother and my bad pass...... its make me cry everytime i heard this song......

  • i remember sitting in my dad's car when i was young and he would put the tape for this song into the player, he would explain the meaning of this song to me but i didn't really understand the meaning at that time. Recently we heard this song together on youtube, i couldn't help but tear up after understanding the song as i felt that even though i have made many mistakes that hurt them deeply, they will always be there for me :')

  • Thanks to DheysDima96 I do now know the meaning of the words. And they are so true..I'm a father and I see my son being strong willed and asserting total freedom in his life, saying he should be given the rights to do as he pleased. He is only 16..

  • This song makes me cry even I do not know the meaning of the words! Such is the power of universal music!

  • NICE SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!! IDOL TALAGA ANG ASIN AT SI FREDDIE

  • 2:33 onwards

    And your eyes suddenly began to water

    Without your knowledge

    Regret and in your mind

    You found out that you did wrong  x2

    ... end...

    Hope that helped! :-)

  • 1:29 onwards... Then you suddenly changed You became hard headed And you disobeyed their every word You didn't even think That what they were doing was for you For what to please to do Is to follow your own path So you didn't take notice of them Many days passed And you became lost in your travels And you fell into a bad doing And the first person that ran to Was your Mother who was in tears And her question, 'Son, why did you become like that?' .. translations up to 2:33
  • When You were born into this world Great happiness came to your parents Their hands are your light. And your Mother and Father Who didn't know what to do Glances even at your sleep And at night your Mother tires herself From making your milk And in the morning you are sat on the lap Of the Father who's so delighted at you Now that you're all grown up You'd like to be free However they do not allow it There's nothing you can do ... translations from start to 1:29

  • I'll use this lyrics for my speech about modern adolescents. It really suits them especially nowadays.

  • IS THIS THE DOVE SONG WHICH IS FAMOUS I HEARD IT BEFORE. MY IMA WOULD ALWAYS SING THIS SONG MAY SHE REST IN PEACE HOWEVER I CANNOT SPEAK TAGOLOG PLS CAN ANYONE TRANSLATE THIS INTO ENGLISH GOD BLESS THE PHILIPPINES MAY THE FLAG WAVE PROUD & STRONG

  • I'm Pinay and I really love this song and I'm happy that so many people around the world know and appreciate this song. it's really inspirational....

  • i never know the translation of this song but just listening to it reach the deepest core of my soul

  • This is Unversal...

  • I love this song. When I'm play it I always remind my childhod spent in Radom -town in central Poland. There are so many smiliralities between my fatherland and the Philippines....

  • I LOVE THIS SONG VERY MUCH

  • this song was a big hit when I was in the Philippines

  • nanay mhal na mahl kita,,hintayin moko maging succesfull at gagantihan ko laht ng paghihirap mo samin,kahit dika nagtatrabho ngwa mong mgtanim ng palay nung time na wala na tayong pera,hindi tayo sanay sa hirap peroginwa mo yon,yun ang diko makkaimutan sa buhay ko,kaya ako nagcckap ngayon para sa inyo ng tatay,mahal na mahl ko kayo,

  • im malaysian and love this song. the lyrics are very thoughtful. very inspiring. regards to all parents in the world, everywhere, anytime.

  • I'M TESS FROM BRASIL. LOVE FRED AGUILAR.

  • this song is like Billy Joel's Vienna, Cat Stevens' Father and Son. It's so... like touching, when you reflect to the song, you'll realize all your faults towards your parents and you might even ask them for forgiveness and pour all your time with them before its too late.. :(

  • ok lang yan ...kasi sa pag kaka alam ko sa ating mga pinoy..hindi tau nag papa-api kya khit sa ganung paraan man lng mkita nila na my sinabi rin tau kya hayaan mo na wag mo silang turuan kng ano gagawin nila ..palib hasa ksi balingbing ka..tang ina mo kamo..

  • Today a young man killed six people and wounded many in a mall in his home town. Then his shot himself. His parents must be going through hell and it made me think of this beautiful song. I dedicate this to them, the parents who once were happy with the birth of a beautiful baby boy........

  • @Saartje05 you cannot ensure that the young man had a good life with his parents. and if his parents were even that happy when he was being raised..

  • @pilotz23 They were and he was. But he had a severe mental illness.

  • @Saartje05 isee... why'd they let him carry such kind of dangerous stuffs.. but then, on the other hand.,, it is just.. tragic...

  • @pilotz23 That's the big question right now. Normally it's very difficult to get weapon permit and he had a permit for three weapons eventhough he was known by the police and he also had a mental illness history. He should never have that permit in the first place. And yes, it's very tragic. The oldest victim was 92 years old. What a way to end.

  • woooooooooooow ة_ة

  • Thank you so much for posting this song. I remember hearing it the first time on a jukebox in Amsterdam (English version) in 1980. I searched the rest of my stay to find it.

  • with this music i've been growed up.

  • often times we have forgotten our parents what they did to us when we were still young. but when time comes to us and we became parents too , we all remember our parents what hardships they've been thru .

    a nice music and inspiring video

  • kinakantahan ako ng LOLA ko nito! pero LOLO ko Wla Maaga sya namatay na hndi ako nakita

  • I love this really much. The lyrics moved me

  • nice song

  • great song greetz from the netherland.

  • am proud to be a Filipino..and this song just reminds me of how loving Filipino parents are...i love all freddie aguilar's songs..

  • to slazzer145... dont criticize a good Song if you really dont understand the words in each line.. focus to your studies first.. puro ka "pota" wla kana ba ibang alam? pota lng? haysssssssss..

  • anak ng puta ,ang filipinas ay anak ng anak..kaya marami bata naka-kalat sa mga kalye...dapat sa kanta ni freddie wag na kayo mag anak pa...

  • great song.. i remember listening to this all the time as a kid and the life lessons that my parents taught me and my brother. This song is tear jerker for me for some reason.

  • mabuhay ka jason ivler... long live

  • forget about jason, i do believe ka fredie was the greatest filipino musician. he had this inspirational song's anak is one of them

  • the best song for us children the fruit of our good parents

  • my mom and lola use to play this song for me when i was a kid, im going to play it for my son now

  • dedicated to jason ivler aguilar... tsk tsk!!

  • I think Freddie Aguilar is the greatest musician Filipino ever. He is definitely Filipino's pride( forget about the Ivler brat)

  • maganda sana ang nilalaman ng awiting ito ngunit taliwas sa isipan at puso ng gumawa at umawit, na sana siya ang naging daan ng mapayapang pagsuko ni jayson ivler n kanyang pamangkin n humantong sa awiting ANAK(san ka nagkamali)

  • ka freddie what an irony, this song is very true with your sister and your nephew....... soooo saaad noh.

  • nice vid! respect from holland!

  • it's about how you are just born you parents are so happy to have you. Even when they are tired they help you. And even though you dissobay they still love you and you don't even know. oh Anak means child so It has to be about being a child. Come on think a little!

  • SO SWEET U RE....

  • i searched on google "best 80s song" and clicked on a link, this song was on it! magandang kanta

  • I saw freddie aguilar in 1981, 1984, and 86. this about the love of the parents by there son or daugher, they also have an enlish version.

  • you may go anak (english version) . .

    :)

  • there talking about kids and how parents love their kids and yeah

  • What is he singing about?????

    Can somebody tell me that please.

    It's a beautifull song though.

  • tungkik

  • I don't care about Freddie and his comments against charice and arnel. Para sa akin " Anak" is a song of all generation.

  • It sure is!

  • Itong kanta na ito ay magiging sikat pa rin kahit mawala na ang popularity ng mga mangagaya. This is a classic song that will withstand the test of time, popularity, and etc.

  • To those who defend Freddie Aguilar, go to google search and type FREDDIE AGUILAR COMMENTS and you can read thousands of negative comments Freddie Aguilar got. I cant even believe that such a freakin load of bullshit would come out of the mouth of one of my formerly respected musicians. Now, the question is: would Charice Pempengco ever get the fame shes enjoying right now if she started out by singing Dahil Sa Iyo on Oprah?

  • 72% ng mg Pilipino d2 sa US sa BALITANG AMERICA againts at galit sayo matandang FREDDIE AGUILAR kaya magsisi kana.

  • FREDDIE AGUILAR IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF CRAB MENTALITY. Pulling down other fiipino artists for his own gain. Besides, his songs suck!!! watch?v=BYCy2p_pdsE

  • woah this song's talking to me becase im just like that now... :D

    now i've changed thanks to this song..

    its been a long time since ive heard this..

  • bkt wlng nag filipino dito?

    wahhaha..

    ganda ng kanta

  • lol

  • FANTASTIC song...didn´t hear it 4 a long time.....thx 4 up.....

  • Chanson superbe dédiée à tous mes tendres amis décédés du SIDA ...depuis les Pays Bas en 1977: John, Denis, Jean, Pascal, Daniel, Jean-François, Bertrand et tous les autres qui me sont si chers au coeur. Ils m'ont donné tant d'amour de de tendresse...

  • Thanks for sharing, beautiful song

  • I havent heard this song for along time but everytime I heard it, since I was little I am always reflecting about myself and appreciate more about my parents effort in loving and guiding me. I like songs of Freddie Aguilar. All of his songs are really inspiring ang tickling our conscience to examine ourselves if we are going into right path.

  • hi Hehber 7!

    "Anak" is my husband's favorite song, he love this song and cries averytime he hear this... there's a story behind this song, he met a Finish guy in a ship in Philippines, and the finish guys says, he visited Philippines not because of it's beauty but because of this song... he heard it in a radio station in Finland. Thanks for uploading this.

  • Mi madre me puso esta cancion cuando era pequeño y me encanta. No se nada de filipino pero se de trata es muy bonita

  • nice song

  • Thanks for commenting guys. I'm glad everyone who has listened to this song agrees that it's one to be remembered, listened to time and time again, and passed down to future generations.

    It's indeed a timeless classic filled with a powerful message and as a Filipino this song makes me proud to be one.

  • @hehber7. I use this song as ring signal in my cellphone.. I'm a Swedish Aguilar fan and I saw and heard him for the first time in Manila -85. A historic time in Philippine history, where Mr Aguilar was a symbol for the peoples revulotion one year later. Since then I have been to his conserts six times. Both in the Philippines and in Europe. I have talked to Mr Aguilar and the fact is that he is a trouth Pilipino; soft, friendly and sensitive. A symbol of your country!

  • @nptn57 but how come this singer/actor says that all phiippens look like monkey??? his face maybe, but not all phiippeyns!

  • @hehber7 what makes you proud about this song eh! tungkol ito sa isang anak na naging addict...nagsisi man sya sa bandang huli pero at the end of the day isa pa rin syang addict...

  • @hehber7 greatly done kabayan malinis ang pagka gawa keep it up. have amerry christmas[iminent=h3V6j8YVffOB­]

  • I am a western dude , heard this one when i was a young boy then sailed with philipino crews all over the world and used to listen alot to Freddie......world star in my opinion

  • i m a south east asian also, and i love this song very much and i know the overall meaning of lyrics. But, can anyone tell me where i can find the original meaning. i meant lyrics in english but stil with its poetic words(original cultural terms). if someone could help out, i would thank greatly.

  • Great video!!! What programs did you use? :)

  • I still love the Tagalog version of this song. The English version is different and there are some text missing. "At sa umaga namay kalong ka ng iyong amang tuwang-tuwa sayo." and "at ang una mong nilapitan ang iyong inang lumuluha...' these are missing in English version and still more. But I still gave credit for the English.

  • thank you...

    filipino pride ... <3

  • I love all the English songs this guy has sung. I had a tape (45 min) of 1 English album, and I still remember the tunes and voice of Freddie Aguilar. Unfortunately, I have lost that album and only has the "CHILD" in MP3 form. Can anybody tell me where can I get the English versions of Freddie Aguilar's works?

  • coooooooooool song man that song is so meaningfull u know :D
