Yoyoy Villame - Magellan lyrics
rate meOn March 16, 1521 <br />
When Philippines was discovered by Magellan <br />
They were sailing day and night across the big ocean <br />
Until they saw a small Limasawa island <br />
<br />
Magellan landed in Limasawa at noon <br />
The people met him very welcome on the shore <br />
They did not understand the speaking they have done <br />
Because Kastila gid at Waray-Waray man <br />
<br />
When Magellan landed in Cebu City <br />
Rajah Humabon met him, they were very happy <br />
All people were baptized and built the church of Christ <br />
And that's the beginning of our Catholic life <br />
<br />
When Magellan visited in Mactan <br />
To christianize them everyone <br />
But Lapu-Lapu met him on the shore <br />
And drive Magellan to go back home <br />
<br />
Then Magellan got so mad <br />
Ordered his men to camouflage <br />
'Mactan island we could not grab <br />
'Cause Lapu Lapu is very hard'<br />
<br />
Then the battle began at dawn <br />
Bolos and spears versus guns and cannons <br />
When Magellan was hit on his neck <br />
He stumble down and cried and cried <br />
<br />
Oh, mother mother I am sick <br />
Call the doctor very quick <br />
Doctor, doctor shall I die? <br />
Tell my mama do not cry <br />
Tell my mama do not cry <br />
Tell my mama do not cry <br />
<br />
That's the end of Magellan <br />
In the island of Mactan long time ago <br />
Ladies and gentlemen
