A VERY OLD ILOCANO SONG

One of the perks of being a retiree (  and one who knows how to use a PC ) is being able to visit cyber sites which you never knew existed.By accident, I came across this site that features a batch of ILOCANO SONGS..And of the songs that I found was a piece we were singing during my elementary days here in Asingan. Here is the song and you can sing it if you know the tune of PLANTING RICE. A-one, a-two, a one-two-three...

Dagiti mulak

Nagmulaak ti katuday
Diay tuktok diay bantay,
Napan met kinaraykay
Ni nadawel a kannaway.

Agaluadka sika kannaway
Ta uggesek dayta ramay
Ta aramidek a sagaysay
Sagaysay ni Lela Kikay.

Nagmulaak ti tabako
Diay tuktok diay puro,
Napan met sinang-sangdo
Ni nadawel a kabalio.

Agaluadka kabalio
Tuktukkolek dayta sungo,
Ta 'ramidek nga suako
Suakonto ni Lelongko.

One thing though, this ditty won't be endorsed by the  Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA)...
