    WARAY SONGS AND POETRY


    Below is a sampling of Waray poetry and songs.

    An Iroy nga Tuna

    (The Motherland)
    by Iluminado Lucente
    An Iroy nga Tuna matamis pagpuyan
    Bisan diin siplat puros kasangkayan
    Hahani an hingpit nga ak kalipayan
    Hahani hira nanay pati kabugtuan.
    Lugaring mahiblon, ha dughan mabugon
    Nga an Pilipinas dayuday uripon
    Ay Tuna, nga ak natawohan!
    Hain daw an hingpit nga at katalwasan?

    WarayWaray

    Author unknown
    Sung by the Mabuhay Singers in their Album "Bahal nga Tuba"
    WarayWaray, pirme may upay
    Mayda lubi, mayda pa humay
    Iton dagat damo it isda
    Ha bungto han mga Waray.
    WarayWaray pirme malipay
    Di makuri igkasarangkay
    Nagiinom kon nagkikita
    Bas' kamingaw mawara!
    Lugar han mga WarayWaray
    Kadtoa naton, pasyadaha
    Diri birilngon an kalipay
    Labi nga gud kon may fiesta.
    Mga tawo nga WarayWaray
    Basta magkita, mayda upay
    Diri kabos hit pakigangay
    Sayod kamo basta Waray.
    WarayWaray! (WarayWaray kabuhi maupay)
    WarayWaray! (Damo iton lubi pati humay)
    WarayWaray! (It mga dagat riko hin isda)
    Ha bungto han mga Waray!

    WarayWaray! (WarayWaray pirme la malipay)


    WarayWaray! (Diri makuri igkasarangkay)
    WarayWaray! (Nagiirignom kon nagkikita)
    Bas' kamingaw mawara!

    Kon Harapit Na An Adlaw Matunod

    (When the Day Is About to Set)


    Folksong attributed to Agustin El O'Mora
    and Leonor Almeria
    Kon harapit na an adlaw matunod
    Ngan ha imo hirayo ako
    Naputok an kakulba ha dughan
    Ngan kamingaw asay gud dako.
    Pagtikang han panuro han tunog
    Mga bukad ngan dahon paghumog
    Inin luha, daw burabod,
    Waray hunong hin pagtubod.
    Kon nadangat na an gabi upod an kamingaw
    Labi kon nabati han huni han kalaw
    Pagpurak han sidlangan, pagpunias han adlaw
    Pagkalpad han maya, dinumdom ko ikaw
    Ginhingyap ka han inagi nga adlaw
    Ug an himaya nga hingpit gayud.
    Labi kon upod ka han pagtanaw
    Han kapusak han mga balud.
    Kondi inabut ako hin kakulba
    Ug an kamingaw namarapara
    Kay kon tingali an ak paglaum
    Bangin daw la nim kawangon.
    Sanglit han pagsalidsid han mapawa nga adlaw
    Higtaas nga bukid luub hin kasilaw
    Paghuni han gangis upud an kamingaw
    Duyog an pagtangis gindumdom ko ikaw

    Daw Nasusunog

    (As If it were burning)


    Folksong
    Daw nasusunog, sidsid han langit
    Pati an dagat gindadalait

    Bangin ha unhan, may nagkaingin


    Nga madlos huyog hinin hangin.
    Iton mga balod, iton mga balod
    Mulayan han dagat
    Nga dit' ha kalawdan, nagbabalatbagat
    An gabi nga dulom, an gabi nga dulom
    An dagat naranggat.
    Nga nakakaliaw han mga dumaragat.
    Adto na'n adlaw, nagligidligid
    Didto huhuron, luyo han bukid
    Bunyog panguli an katamsihan
    Nahadlok bangin magabihan

    Ahay! (Mga pangandoy)

    Folksong
    Sung in Waray Album 2 by Mabuhay Singers
    Ahay! mga pangandoy, ahay!
    Ahay! sa kinabuhi, ahay!
    Inop nga napara sa mga mata daw aso
    Diri magaantos, pirit ako nga magaantos
    An luha sa mata, daw burabod, ay ahay!
    Imo la ginlimot o ginsalikway
    Hain na an harok sadton imo mga imim
    Ginpasipara o ginlimot o ginkawang.
