“I Can” by Jose Lorenz B. De Castro 

Lyrics;

Madami nang naging balakid

Pangarap mo’y di marating

Ngunit narito ka at lumalaban

Dahil sa lakas mo na kinakapitan

 

CHORUS

Narito kami sasamahan ka

Mga pangarap mo abot mo na

Life will be easy, sasabayan kita

Masasabi mo’ng “I can”

Kasi kaya mo na

 

Kasama ang “Ikon” the power of people

Hindi na tutumba basta kasama kita

Kasama ang “Ikon” the power of people

Mga pangarap mo maaabot mo na

Kasama ang “Ikon!”

 

Kaming bahala sa’yo

Lilibutin natin ang mundo

Magtiwala ka lang

Sagot na namin toh!

 

CHORUS

Narito kami sasamahan ka

Mga pangarap mo abot mo na

Life will be easy, sasabayan kita

Masasabi mo’ng “I can”

Kasi kaya mo na

 

Kasama ang “Ikon” the power of people

Hindi na tutumba basta kasama kita

Kasama ang “Ikon” the power of people

Mga pangarap mo maaabot mo na

 

IKON!

 

English Translation: 

There have been many obstacles,

Your dreams felt out of reach.

But here you are, still fighting,

Holding on to your strength.

 

CHORUS

We are here to walk with you,

Your dreams are now within your grasp.

Life will be easy, we’ll be by your side,

You’ll say, “I can,”

Because now you can!

 

With Ikon – The Power of People!

You won’t fall as long as we’re with you.

With Ikon – The Power of People!

Your dreams are now within reach,

With Ikon!

 

We’ve got you covered,

Together, we’ll explore the world.

Just trust us,

We’ve got this for you!

 

[CHORUS – Repeat]

We are here to walk with you,

Your dreams are now within your grasp.

Life will be easy, we’ll be by your side,

You’ll say, “I can,”

Because now you can!
