I yoyo o papa I yoyo o papa

By Ado Kaliting Pacidal in Pangcah

cidal diputen ita fudal diputen ita

Sun protects us Moon guards us

Singing around, and around Our songs, for children Sleep, go to sleep Singing around, and around

Ocean is our path We rely on ocean, and ocean accompany us

Do you know kid? Look! We have ocean. We have sun.

Ah you kid Why not go to bed? Go to bed when it gets dark Mum is already tired Don’t silly! Hurry up! Go to bed now!

"o pidoedo ako to takaraw no lotok a pakeling, o pingdo ako to sufal a mahaleng.” "Our songs are a reflection of our environment; our songs are strong like the mountains which surround our village; our songs are humble in respect of the land which feeds us." ~ Ado Kaliting Pacidal | facebook.com/ado.k.p/
