Let me add, songwriter too.

Kundiman: Sarung Banggi. A kundiman is a Filipino love song traditionally sung by a man wooing the woman of his dreams. Sometimes, the young man will be accompanied by friends as he serenades (harana) the woman in the evening. With the familiar strains of the guitar, the suitor pours out his emotions through a song, usually one which speaks of loneliness or even lack of self-worth.

Sarung Banggi means “one night” or “one evening” in Bicol, and here’s a loose translation of the start:
One evening as I lay on my bed
I heard the whistle of a bird
I thought I was dreaming
That it was your voice…
Sarung Banggi “was composed about 1910 by Potenciano V. Gregorio of Libog, now Sto. Domingo , Albay.
