Mig Ayesa Composed a Song for Ondoy Victims
Mig Ayesa, the Fil-Aussie finalist in the US reality show Rockstar:INXS, created a heartwarming song titled "United As One" for the victims of typhoon Ondoy.
Mig is currently in New York where he took part in a major benefit concert called "BANDing2gether" for the Ondoy Relief Fund held last Sunday, Oct. 11, at St. John School Auditorium in Jersey City, New Jersey, with New York’s eight leading Fil-Am bands and other local artists. The concert was presented by MPE Productions in cooperation with Ayala Foundation USA.
Here’s what Mig has to say about United As One:
"I just wanted to share with you a song I am sending to use to help raise funds for the victims of Ondoy in the Philippines. Please bear in mind this is a demo, recorded at home, using my very limited studio and playing all the instruments. I hope people can pick up this song and use it as an anthem for the relief efforts and also use it to raise much-needed funds. Any help or ideas you may have to get it to the right people would be very much appreciated.
"The world has seemed to forgotten what is still such a painful and drastic situation. I hope this song will inspire people to act and give hope."
Here is the lyrics of the song "United as One":
UNITED AS ONE
(Words and music by MiG Ayesa, Tagalog Translations by Freddie Santos)
Kapatid, Kaibigan, Kababayan
(Sibling, friend, countrymen)
Kapatid, Kaibigan, Kababayan
Kapatid, Kaibigan, Kababayan
Kasama mo ako
(I am with you)
Kasama mo ako
I hear you calling out my name
And I can't just ignore what you're saying
I see you falling from the pain
And I'm feeling the way that your hurting
You're my brother, sister don't you cry
I'll be there by your side to hold you up
Though you never thought this would matter
I'll never leave you alone
So hold on tightly, hang on I'll be
There by your side and we'll battle the tide together...
(Magkasama)
Together...
(Magkasama)
Don't be scared we'll
Soon be where we
All want to be as we stand here united as one.
Pag langit ay du-mi-di-lim
(When dark clouds leaves you in despair)
And the rain seems to fall down forever
At buhay ay uma-aah-sim
(When life is just too much too bear)
And you can't feel the break in the weather
You don't have to worry
I'll help you carry on
Through the eye of the storm we're holding on
The day's dawning, feel the sun warming
Healing you, keeping you strong...
So hold on tightly, hang on I'll be
There by your side and we'll battle the tide together...
(Magkasama)
Together...
(Magkasama)
Don't be scared we'll
Soon be where we
All want to be as we stand here united as one.
Kapatid, Kaibigan, Kababayan

You are my brother, sister, mother
I'll be there by your side to hold you up
I'll be by your side...
So hold on tightly, hang on I'll be
There by your side and we'll battle the tide together...
(Magkasama)
Together...
(Magkasama)
Don't be scared we'll
Soon be where we
All want to be as we stand here united as one.
We stand as one...
