Bituing Walang Ningning / Lackluster Star Song Lyrics and English Translation

The song is sung by Miss Sharon Cuneta, a local Philippine actress and was the official theme song of the movie of the same title. I love the song so deep, so enthralling that makes me sob and teary eyed. You can sing the song if you want. Here is the music video of the song with the lyrics and some scenes from the movie. Included also here is the English translation of the lyrics. It is the official theme song of the movie of the same title "Bituing Walang Ningning" which was released in 1985 starring Sharon Cuneta, Christopher De Leon, Cherry Gil, Joel Torre, Tommy Abuel, Chanda Romero and the late Jay Ilagan among others.






Bituing Walang Ningning
by Sharon Cuneta




Kung minsan ang pangarap
Habambuhay itong hinahanap
Bakit nga ba nakapagtataka
'Pag ito ay nakamtan mo na
Bakit may kulang pa




Mga bituin aking narating
Ngunit langit ko pa rin ang iyong piling
Kapag tayong dalawa'y naging isa
Kahit na ilang laksang bituin
'Di kayang pantayan ating ningning




CHORUS 1
Balutin mo ako ng hiwaga ng iyong pagmamahal
Hayaang matakpan ang kinang na 'di magtatagal
Mabuti pa kaya'y maging bituing walang ningning
Kung kapalit nito'y walang paglaho mong pagtingin




CHORUS 2
Itago mo ako sa lilim ng iyong pagmamahal
Limutin ang mapaglarong kinang ng tagumpay
Sa piling mo ngayon ako'y bituing walang ningning
Nagkukubli sa liwanag ng ating pag-ibig




[Repeat 2nd Stanza]
[Repeat CHORUS 1]
[Repeat REFRAIN 2 except last line]




Nagkukubli sa liwanag at kislap ng ating pag-ibig






English Translation


Sometimes the dream
Is a lifelong search
Why is it a wonder
When you got it
Why is it not enough

 

The stars I've reached
But heaven is still being with you
When two of us become one
Even a thousand stars
Cannot equal by our brilliance



CHORUS 1

Wrap me in your enchanting love

Let it cover the glitter that will not last
It's better to be a star without its brilliance
If it would mean your love would last forever



CHORUS 2

Hide me in the shadow of your love

Forget the playful / deceiving brilliance of success
With you now I'm a star without glitter
Hiding in the light of our love


[Repeat 2nd Stanza]

[Repeat CHORUS 1]
[Repeat REFRAIN 2 except last line]



Hiding in the brightness and brilliance of our love





Another Version of the English Translation

Sometimes you search for your dreams
It takes your whole life to find it
But doesn't it make you wonder
When you finally achieve your dream
Why does it seem like something is still missing


I have reached the stars
But heaven is still being with you
When the two of us become one
Even a thousand stars would never outshine us


Wrap me in your enchanting love
Let it keep inside the glitter that may not last
I would rather be a star without its brilliance
If it would mean your love would last forever


Hide and shelter me in your love
Forget the deceiving brilliance of success
With you I am a star without a spark
Hidden by the brightness and glitter
of the love we now share
