Lyrics: Igorota Song

Some of you have been googling for the lyrics of the Igorota song performed by Jun Utleg so we decided to blog about it. Here’s the unofficial lyrics transcribed by a bibaknets member and forwarded to us.

Igorota
On a soft green [play] ground by the river bend
She was sitting there to meet the morning sun
She was playing a [flute] when the songbird’s broke out

As they listened to [her wonderful] melody
And he was filled with every note she’s playing
Slowly I sat by her side

Refrain:
Igorota, girl of my dreams
You’re the most precious gift that I ever had
Igorota, queen of my heart
I’ll go on loving you
Throughout my life

You are my day, my morning sun
You’ll forever be my only one
She puts the [flute] then sweetly she smiles

And she asks me, “Why are you staring at me?”
I held her close and a songbird sang
I whispered to her, “I love you.”

Repeat Refrain

I think credit for the song and its lyrics goes to Danny Tawanna. Great performance by Jun Utleg. By the way, the lyrics here are not 100% correct so please use it with caution 🙂

    IGOROTA

    On a smooth gray raft
    By the river bank
    She was sailin’ it til
    ‘Neath the morning sun
    She was playing a fool
    And the songbirds were dumb
    As they listen to her and there for melody
    And the air was filled with every note she’s playin’
    Slowly I sat by her side

    ** Igorota, girl of my dreams
    You’re the most precious gift that i ever had
    Igorota, beat of my heart
    I’ll go on loving you throughout my life**

    You are my day, my morning sun
    You forever be my only one
    She puts down the flute
    and sweetly she smiled
    and she asked me, “why are you staring at me?”
    And i hold her close
    In a songbird song,
    I whispered to her, “I LOVE YOU”

    ** Igorota, girl of my dreams
    You’re the most precious gift that i ever had
    Igorota, beat of my heart
    I’ll go on loving you throughout my life** (vvian33@yahoo.com)

  13. These are the lyrics I heard after listening to him play it on YOUTUBE over and over again but I may still be wrong on a few parts but I turned up the volume and tried to get it as close as I could:

    Igorota

    Verse 1
    On a smooth gray raft
    by the river bed
    She was sitting there
    ‘Neath the morning sun
    She was playing a flute,
    and the songbirds were dumb

    As they listened to her wonderful melody
    And the air was filled with every note she played
    Slowly I sat… by her side

    Chorus: x2
    Igorota, girl of my dreams
    You’re the most precious gift that I ever held
    Igorota, queen of my heart
    I’ll go on loving you
    Throughout my life

    Bridge
    Chorus

    Verse 2

    You are my day,
    my morning sun
    You’ll forever
    be my only one
    She puts down the flute and sweetly she smiled

    And she asks me, “Why are you staring at me?”
    And I hold her close and the songbird sung
    I whispered to her, “I love you.”

    Repeat x3

    I may be wrong on some of the words but when I sing it to my Igorota wife I’m sure she’ll know the intentions of my heart for her.

  14. nice song,,,,am an ilocano but when i heard this song,,,i like it… i like the lyrics…i luv to listen igorot songs…..GODBLESS US ALL
