My dad was really insisting for me to sing the Cuyono folk song 'Ploning' during his 64th birthday celebration, so I gave in. Note: I hate singing in front of the public. But I like promoting Cuyonon music.

Anyways, Ploning is a popular folk song in Cuyo, Palawan, Philippines. Although 'Toting' could be considered the Natonal Anthem of the Cuyonons, hehe, due to the film directed bya Cuyonon, Dante Nico Garcia, and starred by Judy Ann Santos, if you google Ploning, thousands of sites will come out.

Here are some Cuyonon lyrics of Ploning with their literal English Translation

Ploning, nga labing maleban (Ploning (name of the girl), who's very kind)
ang guegma mo ploning (your love ploning)
nga ing kandaduan (which have been locked in)
lisensia ko ploning (may i ask ploning)
kung sarang tugutan (if you would allow)
mapamasyar ako (i'd like to take a vacation)
sa marayeng lugar (in a faraway land).

  • thank you...yes that's right:) matinlo also means maganda in tagalog...the only difference is that maganda can also pertain to physical beauty while in cuyonon mapostora is the more appropriate term...:)

    thank you again for watching...

  • galing naman....kkaemote yan

  • thank you..

  • Ang galing! 'Wag kang mahiya 'no! Andami d'yang Ingles na kumakanta wala namang talent! Cuyonon pala is in Palawan. See, I wouldn't have known it kung 'di ko narinig yung kanta mo. Ako Ilonggo/Bacolodnon dito sa NY.

    To some of the posters: Hindi 'to nakakarating sa Maynila kasi the likes of ASAP and co. are too busy copying Western songs. Malungkot!
