"Dahil Sa Iyo" is a song by Mike Velarde, Jr., written in 1938 for the movie, Bituing Marikit and sung by Rogelio de la Rosa.
A version with English-Tagalog lyrics, recorded in 1964, was a hit in the United States and continues to be popular in Filipino communities on American soil.
One of the most popular examples of the kundiman genre, this "classic Filipino love song" with original Tagalog lyrics has been translated into different languages.
The languages it was translated in include English, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese, and other local languages of the Philippines.
Representing an earlier era remembered in nostalgia, it is one of the most popular songs in Tagalog, and a favorite in the Philippines as well as among Filipino communities in Honolulu, on the American West Coast, and in places like Virginia Beach, Virginia.
Its popularity in the Philippines is such that some think it ought to replace the current national anthem, and that it be played if former American president Barack Obama had made a state visit to the Philippines.
It has been covered many times and is a standard on the repertoire of many artists performing Filipino romantic and popular music.
The song's canonical status as a classic Filipino love song was again confirmed by its inclusion on the 2004 hit compilation album Great Filipino Love Songs.
This song was famously performed by Nat King Cole at the Araneta Coliseum (now SMART Araneta Coliseum) in Quezon City in 1961.
