Lyrics of Nag-Iisang Bituin by Angeline Quinto:
Sa lamig ng gabi May pupuno ng puwang sa 'yong tabi Pagmamahal ang tanging hatid Patitingkarin ang 'yong kislap sa dilim Malayo man, maihahatid din ng hangin Ang mga hangarin ng puno ng pag-ibig
Ang pangarap ko'y para sa 'yo, nag-iisang bituin Laman ng puso at damdamin ko, nag-iisang bituin Kahit san ka man dalhin ng tadhana'y dama pa rin Dahil tayo'y nakatitik, sa iisang bituin.
Tanging hiling ng puso ko'y Tibayan and loob sa 'yong mga pagsubok Malayo man, maihahatid din ng hangin Ang mga hangarin ng puno ng pag-ibig
Ang pangarap ko'y para sa 'yo, nag-iisang bituin Laman ng puso at damdamin ko, nag-iisang bituin Kahit san ka man dalhin ng tadhana'y dama pa rin Dahil tayo'y nakatitik, sa iisang bituin.
Tulad ng mga tala sa langit Ika'y magniningning
Ang pangarap ko'y para sa 'yo, nag-iisang bituin Laman ng puso at damdamin ko, nag-iisang bituin Kahit san ka man dalhin ng tadhana'y dama pa rin Dahil tayo'y nakatitik, sa iisang bituin.
