Gasteig is a cultural center in Munich, opened in 1985, which hosts the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra. The Richard Strauss Conservatory, the Volkshochschule, and the municipal library are all located in the Gasteig. Most of the events of the Filmfest München, and many of the events of the Munich Biennale take place here.
The Philharmonic Hall, opening like a great wood-panelled seashell, has an intimate atmosphere but poor acoustic qualities. The smaller hall "Kleiner Konzertsaal" offers slightly better acoustics for chamber music. The Gasteig comprises the Carl Orff Hall with a stage for drama, the Richard Strauss Conservatory, the Black Box studio theatre, the Münchner Volkshochschule (Adult Education Centre) for further education, various cafés and shops, e.g. the 'Pappnase' (cardboard nose) offering a selection of dramatic requisites, and the central branch of the Municipal Library with its extensive stock of books and periodicals.
Langit ang makapiling ka
Awit sa hanging hindi para sa akin
Kahit saglit lang na makasama ka
Parang tumitigil ang oras sa palibot nating dalawa
Dumadalanging huwag munang matapos ang tamis
Ng pangarap sa tuwing makikita ka
Hindi ka hahayaang
Lumipas bawat sandali kapag kapiling ka
Hindi ka hahayaang
Lumipas bawat sandali kapag kapiling ka
Hindi magsasawang ibigin ka
Habang ako'y naririto sa tabi mo
Batid mo nga ba ang lahat ng ito
Sana kahit papaano'y nararamdaman mo
Dumadalanging huwag munang matapos ang tamis
Ng pangarap sa tuwing makikita ka
Hindi ka hahayaang
Lumipas bawat sandali kapag kapiling ka
Hindi ka hahayaang
Lumipas bawat sandali kapag kapiling ka
Maaaring mawala ang lahat
Ngunit hindi ang tulad mo sa isip ko
Maaaring mawala ang lahat
