MANANG BIDAY (Ilocano Folk Song)

MANANG BIDAY


Manang Biday, ilukatmo man

Ta bintana ikalumbabam

Ta kitaem ‘toy kinayawan

Ay, matayakon no dinak kaasian


Siasino ka, nga aglabaslabas

Ditoy hardinko pagay-ayamak

Ammom ngarud a balasangak

Sabong ni lirio, di pay nagukrad


Denggem, ading, ta bilinenka

Ta inkanto ‘diay sadi daya

Agalakanto’t bunga’t mangga

Ken lansones pay, adu a kita


No nababa, dimo gaw-aten

No nangato, dika sukdalen

No naregreg, dika piduten

Ngem labaslabasamto met laeng


Daytoy paniok no maregregko

Ti makapidut isublinanto

Ta nagmarka iti naganko

Nabordaan pay ti sinanpuso


Alaem dayta kutsilio

Ta abriem ‘toy barukongko

Tapno maipapasmo ti guram

Kaniak ken sentimiento


English translation


Dear Biday, please open
Open your window
So you can see the one who adores you
Oh, I will die if you will not care

Who are you who keeps passing by?
In my garden where I play
You know I'm a lady
My flowers has not bloomed

Listen my dear so I can tell you
Just go south
Get a mango fruit
Even lanzones and other kinds.

If it's low, do not grab it
If it's high, don't reach for it
If it fell, don't pick it
But pass by it

My handkerchief if I drop it
Whoever finds it will return it
My name is written in it
Also embroidered is a heart

Get that knife
To open my chest
To pass your anger
to me and sadness
