What is the meaning of verse 1 lumang simbahan?

Answer 1

In the Old Church

In the old church, I have witnessed

A young man and young woman taking an oath

Kneeling in front of the altar

In each hand, they held a dagger

If I were already dead, my only request

Visit, my love, the orphaned grave

And when you hear the cries and lamentations

Our oath shall have ended

CHORUS

And when you hear the ringing of the bell

In the old church, take time to visit

Kneel, my love, in front of the altar

And pray for the departed beloved
