After the success of the albums of Light Peace Love and As the Music Plays, music stores are expected to be jammed up on February 23 with the much awaited release of their third album We Stand Alone Together. Featured in this album is Bamboo’s recent single Tatsulok which is an original of the group Buklod who’s known for their lyrics that’s relevant to the society that we live in.

The release of their single is timely since the elections are approaching soon and we are all aware that during these times, political violence is prevalent.

Check out the unofficial music videos uploaded in YouTube. The flash animation uploaded there has a simple concept yet it was able to show the message of the song in a bloody way.

Tatsulok
Bamboo

Totoy bilisan mo, bilisan mo ang takbo
Ilagan ang mga bombang nakatutok sa ulo mo
Totoy tumalon ka, dumapa kung kailangan
At baka tamaan pa ng mga balang ligaw

Totoy makinig ka, wag kang magpa-gabi
Baka mapagkamalan ka’t humandusay dyan sa tabi
Totoy alam mo ba kung ano ang puno’t dulo
Ng di matapos-tapos na kaguluhang ito

[Refrain]
Hindi pula’t dilaw tunay na magkalaban
Ang kulay at tatak ay di syang dahilan
Hangga’t marami ang lugmok sa kahirapan
At ang hustisya ay para lang sa mayaman

[Chorus]
Habang may tatsulok at sila ang nasa tuktok
Di matatapos itong gulo

At ang dating munting bukid, ngayo’y sementeryo
Totoy kumilos ka, baliktarin ang tatsulok
Tulad ng dukha, nailagay mo sa tuktok

[repeat Refrain and Chorus]

[repeat Refrain and Chorus]

[repeat Chorus]

Di matatapos itong gulo
