As said perfectly clear by Jireh himself, “May araw ka ring leche ka.” Truly, karma has a funny way of manifesting itself. The music video itself starts on a light tone, showing Jireh and his lover sharing an intimate moment, only to be ruined by the realization that this woman is a cheater, and that all her love for him was nothing genuine or lasting. But we’re hopeful that, compared to Jireh’s other songs, this was not based on a real-life experience, because really, who would want to be cheated on? If it were based on real experience, we’re hoping Jireh chooses to be the bigger man and not resort to violence, no matter how angry he is. He cautions her that he knows her secret, and that he will have his revenge one day soon. Instead, the song is about the bitterness and anger one feels after finding out that the person you thought was the love of your life was actually nothing more than a cheater, who would dump you for someone better as soon as the moment presented itself.Īt the song’s chorus, Jireh sings about his own gullibility, of falling prey to this woman and her web of lies.

However, “Mangga,” was not the sweet and romantic song that its fruity namesake was. One example is “Buko,” which comes from a line in the song, “Buhay Ko.” He shortened the phrase and turned it into the memorable song title, “Buko.” But if we’ve learned anything from the songwriting of Jireh, his song titles are often witty and intelligent plays on words and meanings of the songs themselves. "Mangga," a song written and sung by acoustic sensation and handsome heartthrob Jireh Lim, may seem like an innocent song about the most famous Filipino fruit, as well as the Philippines’ national symbol.
