Balitok na Tolong o Santa Barbara

Balitok na Tolong o Santa Barbara
pangikinon ed si Don Daniel Maramba
(say malayug ya pangilugay ed sika
pinablin bayani na baley min aya)

limeng yo pa O balon kailalakan
dia’d pugaro ed dapit-letakan
wadia so palbayani tayon inggendan
insipan la ed akualan to nen Adan

sinmulming dia’d pinabpabli tayon baley
nen asagmak iya’d dayon impangoley
aman ‘ma’y panao’y maoges ya miskey
so linmagnap ed luyag tayon abagey

magter so dala’y anakbanuan abangon
nen kanepegan lan bawie'y balangon
inmusbong so sakey a filibustiron
somlang ed saray sankailin adayon

impanengneng to so maasnan ugali
ed agto inyangob ed lima na prayli:
akin et ontewek ak ed sayan lasi?
say alenleneg tin bagui karyan to ni!

balet ontan la so imis ton inala
so lima na praylin amta ton maruksa
akipasamanon andi’y pililikna
sengeg met la na impakapangaw tonia
nen say kawayangan et agamoran to
linman akimoyong ed si Aguinaldo
angolo na liman lasus ya sundalo
akibakal ed gilig na ilog Agno

dakel ma’y atiguay ed bakal ya aman
inlugay to so laylay na Katipunan
angga’d baley na Mangaldan tan Dagupan
inkorit ed dala ra’y bilay-awaran

tan angalompana so dengel na ngaran
dia’d apatiran sokung na Pangasinan
sinayon ya inter to so kagalangan
ed luyag - laut la’d baley a nianakan

lingayen yo pan wala ni’d kalangweran
say kalar na Ama’y Baley ag lingwanan
impangaro to’d saray kailalakan
nen panao’y bakal ya angga ni’d natan

kamaongan so nagnap ton intanggoyor
tan pilalek na karaklan so tinoor
angga’d nen inyorong to lan gobernador
irap na bilay wala’d linawan sipor

saray taytay tan inispalto ‘ran dalan
say kapitolion pilatek tayo natan
saraya et lapu ed sagput na ama’n
agto insiblet so bilay to’d karaklan

tinoor to so sakey a pangoliran:
agto tinepet no anto’y nagawaan
na luyag para ed sikato bang ingen
no anto’y nagawaan to’d kaluyagan

gali! galikayo dia’d Santa Barbara
baley na palbayanin Daniel Maramba
tan say kailalakan na masurin Asna
nanlapu’d boleg nen binari Urduja!

About | Santiago Villafania

Santiago Villafania is a bilingual Filipino poet who writes in English and in his native language of Pangasinan. Born in Tuliao, Sta. Barbara, Pangasinan on 31 January 1971, Villafania graduated with a degree of Bachelor of Arts in English from the University of Pangasinan in 1991. Villafania advocates for the resurgence of Pangasinan as a literary language.
