Interpretation of The Song "Ang Pipit"

Image
  Our interpretation in this song is when compared to a pipit, a little passerine bird, "Ang Pipit" is the cries of hope, redemption, and independence of the Filipino people. The painful reality that Filipinos who are still imprisoned in their own nation live out in this song. Nobody can match the imagery and symbolism in Levi Celerio's masterfully composed song. Simple notes and phrases can nonetheless have an odd influence on the listener. It continues to be a classic in the contemporary music scene and serves as a reminder of the work that has to be done to free the country from its bonds of racial enslavement.
