Celebration of Life: Macrine J.Katague via her Favorite Music ( Christmas)-Part 14

It is now Christmas in the Philippines. Here in the US it is Christmas Eve. Ditas, David and I are staying home. We plan on cooking Ox Tails Kare Kare and have a ZOOM Get Together of Relatives along with Carenna in the Netherlands at 4PM Pacific time. We hope you can joined us virtually this afternoon. 

Meanwhile enjoy Part 14-the end of the series on Macrine J Katague Celebration of life via her favorite music . Here are four of Macrine's favorite Christmas songs both in Tagalog and English.

Josh Groban - O Holy Night

 


Himig Singers -Payapang Daigdig ( Peaceful World)



Pasko Na Sinta Ko ( Its Christmas Now, My Love)-Valenciano-Guitar

 


Vienna Boys Choir- Silent Night in German

This song Macrine and I sang in Tagalog during our mid-night Christmas mass concert here in our local catholic church in 2005. I will never forget how she encouraged me to sing duet with her for the whole congregation to hear and enjoy. 

Tahimik na Gabi

Tahimik na gabi; Banal na gabi
Lahat ay kalmado; lahat maliwanag
Sa Birheng Ina at kaniyang Anak
Banal na Sanggol na mahinhing humihinga
Natutulog na kapayapaan
Na parang sa langit ang dama

Tahimik na gabi; Banal na gabi
Mga pastol; naroon sa sabsaban
Mga papuri ay maririnig
Mula sa mga anghel ng langit
Si Kristo ay ipinanganak
Tagapag-ligtas natin Siya

Tahimik na gabi; Banal na gabi
Anak ng Diyos; ilaw ng pag-ibig
Liwanag nagmumula sa Iyong mukha
Ay nagsisilaw ng pag-babasbas
Hesus, Panginoon
Sa Iyong pagkapanganak

 May You Rest in Peace, my love (Pangga)!   


I Heard your voice in the Wind Today
