    Ikaw ang dalangpanan ko
    Sa panahon sa kalisdanan
    Ikaw ang akong gisaligan

    Sa akong kasingkasing
    Ikaw ang akong kalipay
    Sa matag adlaw nga molabay

    Sa kanunay akong simbahon
    Ang Imong ngalan pagadayegon
    Hangtod sa kahangturan

    Kay Ikaw lamang ang nagpuno
    Sa akong kasingkasing sa kalipay

    For all that You have done
    My heart praises
    Your holy name

Where to Find More Translations:

  1. YouTube: Search for the Bisaya gospel song on YouTube. Often, people will include lyrics in the description, and sometimes even English translations in the comments section. You can also use the "CC" (Closed Captions) feature and then use YouTube’s auto-translate to English (though the accuracy can vary).

  2. Google Search: Try searching for the song title followed by "lyrics English translation" or "Bisaya to English."

  3. Online Forums/Communities: Look for Filipino or Bisaya language learning forums or Christian forums where people might have shared translations.

  4. Direct Translation: If you know someone who speaks Bisaya and English fluently, you can ask them to help you translate the lyrics.

Important Considerations:

  • Accuracy: Machine translations (like Google Translate) can be a good starting point, but they’re not always accurate, especially with idiomatic expressions or religious language.
  • Poetry and Rhyme: Translations often focus on conveying the meaning, so the poetic quality and rhyme scheme of the original Bisaya lyrics might be lost.
  • Copyright: Be mindful of copyright laws when sharing lyrics translations. It’s generally okay for personal use, but if you plan to publish or distribute them, you may need permission from the copyright holder.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have a specific song you’d like me to try to find a translation for.
