Did you meet him there, Tanso?
I do not know very much about him, but I like his song "Tayo´y mga Pinoy". A
week ago I have been to a Fiesta Filipina (it was great!), and there was the
San Beda College Male Choir and they sung this song. Wow! Not only did these
young men have very good voices, the choreography was very fine also! It
made me glad to see that Heber´s song is still alive. What place does it
take in the Philippines? Is it a very popular song there?
Now that I speak about it - it would be nice to have your help with the
translation of the last stance:
Mayro´ng isang aso, daig pa ang ulol
Siya ay ngumingiyaw, hindi tumatahol
Katulad ng iba, pa-English, English pa
Na kung pakikinggan, mali-mali naman
´Wag na lang
I think it is "there is a dog that is very crazy, he is miowing instead of
barking", but I can´t understand the rest.
