as told by the lady singing, translated by the blogger.
AWITAN is not a name. It is a word, a verb, an order, a battle cry.
Here is why:
What to do when depressed? Sing!
When facing tragedy? Sing!
When struggling? Sing!
Some are around to help. They dont know what to do nor what to say.
The voice of somebody very special says: Sing! Awitan!...
... and I sing! Awitan ko!
I sing for you! Awitan ko ikaw!
The voice of somebody very special says: Mama, sing!
... and I sing! Awitan ko!
AWITAN KO IKAW! I sing for you!

Thanks a lot for your songs and for this poem.
I have sung many days at the bed of my little darling.
Completely sure, he still hears my songs forever.
Best wishes for you
Mario
