ADTO NA AKO, PALANGGA

  ADTO NA AKO, PALANGGA      This song was composed between August 28 - September 06, 2020 as humble tribute to Mr. Francisco Tiro Babia, Sr.  The refrain "Adto na ako" was inspired from the song that Papa always love to sing during the last years of his life. It means - "I will be going...".   With deep sorrow, there was a struggle to complete the lyrics with and the melody. The process of writing this song touched the inner emotions of loss, of guilt, of anger and of helplessness. Yet, it has to be done. And yes, it was done. The song is my effort to summarize Papa's virtues - faith, love, hard work, caring, grateful, and humility.
