4. GAYUMA
The music video shows the man (Abra)
and his transgender (bakla) "girlfriend"
enjoying time together, despite friends
and other people being against their
relationship. Later on in the video, the
man realizes that the person he loves is
in fact a gay or "bakla", after his former
girlfriend revealed that the gay had
used a potion to make the man (Abra)
attracted to him. He later meets a pretty
girl in a bar, and the pair start dating.
After the girl goes to lean on his
shoulder, the gay (his former love
interest) suddenly appears to be the one
at his side.
Some people found the video “homophobic”.

Isang araw dumalaw, sa'kin ang aking dating
kasintahan
Ang sabi niya, Uy, meron akong nabalitaan
Nang ikwento niya ako'y napaisip
Sabay napatahimik nang sinabing hindi 'yan
tunay na pag-ibig
Ilang araw hinanap bago makita ang sagot
Kung tama ang hinala, ito’y mabisa na gamot
At nang aking inumin saka ko lang naunawaan
Gayuma nga, 'lang hiya ako’y naloko lamang

21. It is ironic that the person you trusted and loved deeply is also the person who can
hurt you the most. We should know how to accept what happened and continue
with our life.
The truth is that when you are in love, be prepared to get hurt.

24. My Reader Dependent Interpretation
Being deceived by the person we love causes so much pain that we
tend to deny it in order to hide the pain we feel.

important that he/she uses not only his/her heart
but also his/her mind because listening to your
heart can make a person totally blind of that
person’s negative characteristics.
