‘Harana-Pop Heartthrob’ Dylan Menor Releases Debut Single ‘Maghapon’

Most people know Dylan Menor as an actor, having appeared in series such as Ang Himala ni Niño, and Almost Paradise, plus the MMFF entry The Kingdom. And now he is showing everyone just how multi-talented he is, with the release of “Maghapon,” his debut single under Universal Records.

The catchy “Maghapon,” which was written by Alvin Serito of the band SunKissed Lola, is a serenade track with a slow and soothing progression, capturing the quiet beauty of companionship. Through the magic of unspoken connection, the song tells the story of someone drawn to another’s presence—enchanted by their eyes and longing to stay close. With a gentle melody and intimate lyrics, it expresses the subtle thrill of admiration and the warmth of simply being together: “Kahit saan mo gusto, ‘di mo kailangang magsalita. Kahit saan mo gusto, ang mahalaga ay nariyan ka.”

Dylan — who is managed by Stages Talents and an endorser for the MVP Group of Companies, Penshoppe, and Blackwater — has been teasing his fans by performing parts of the song in events like his “A Date with the Dreamers” fan meet last February 16, and more recently on an episode of Wil to Win. 

His fans can finally rejoice now that “Maghapon” is already available on all major streaming platforms. “I’m very excited now that my first-ever single is out,” Dylan says. “I’m very proud of this song, and I hope a lot of people will be able to relate to it kasi nakaka–kilig and nakaka-in love talaga siya, from the melody to the lyrics.”

This is definitely just the start for the “Harana Pop Heartthrob” of Universal Records. There will be a lot of YouTube videos and short-form content on socials to support the single, TV and radio guestings, plus on-ground activities scheduled for the press and his fans to get to know him more as a singer and recording artist.

Verse I

nakita kita dahil sa mala-tala mo na mga mata

‘di sinasadya na lumakad tungo sa kung nasa’n ka

Pre Chorus I

unti-unting papalapit

“pwede bang malaman iyong ngalan”

maaari bang makatabi ka’t 

sa pananahimik masamahan

Chorus

kahit saan mo gusto

‘di mo kailangang magsalita

kahit saan mo gusto

ang mahalaga ay nariyan ka

palipasin natin ang maghapon

mga puso nati’y hihinahon

Verse II

napapakanta, kitang-kita ‘di ko man ipahalata

‘di na mawala sa kaisipan, maamo mong mukha

Pre Chorus II

naririnig ba o hindi?

ang alunig ng aking damdamin

maaari bang aking damhin

iyong kamay ilapat mo sa akin

Chorus

kahit saan mo gusto

‘di mo kailangang magsalita

kahit saan mo gusto

ang mahalaga ay nariyan ka

palipasin natin ang maghapon

mga puso nati’y hihinahon

Bridge

sasamahan ka

sa pag-iisa

‘wag kang mangamba 

nandito lang

Last Chorus

kahit saan mo gusto

‘di mo kailangang magsalita

kahit saan mo gusto

ang mahalaga ay nariyan ka

kahit saan mo gusto

narito ko ‘wag mag alinlangan

kahit saan mo gusto

oh hayaan mo akong manahan

palipasin natin ang maghapon

mga puso nati’y hihinahon
