I was shocked when I first saw the name Jovito Cariño in the Missal pamphlet of the Centennial Celebration of the Canonical Coronation of our Lady of the Holy Rosary of La Naval de Manila when I attended it last 4th of October, 2007. That familiar name was acknowledged as the lyricist by whom its music was composed by Venhee Saturno and arranged by Louie Ocampo—the enthronement song was entitled Salamat Maria. During the mass, I was fascinated by the ambiance of the church; the orchestra on the balcony plays majestically soon as the bunch of clergies march towards the flower-filled sanctuary from the main entrance of Sto. Domingo while entire building is dimmed and that boom spotlights dances above the ceilings was the only source of light. Well, not to detail the whole celebration, when Bishop Ongtiongco was about to reenact the coronation I accidentally saw Prof. Cariño with his wife standing on one of the side doors of the church. And so the celebration continues until the enthronement of the image; when the image of La Naval was transferred to her balcochina (a high neo-gothic altar) it was then when the renowned balladeer Basil Valdez sung the official theme song of the La Naval Feast. When the celebration ended I approached Prof. Cariño to say farewell and also to ask whether it was he who wrote the lyrics of the song but he denied it.

Four months later, when the philosophy department was struggling along a big problem it was then that Prof. Bello confessed to me that it was Prof. Cariño who wrote the lyrics of that Marian song, actually he didn't wrote it on purposed but it was his poem dedicated to our Lady of La Naval when he was still a member of the Dominican brothers. His poem was proposed by Reverend Jeff to Fr. Jojo Dagohoy OP, chair of the La Naval Feast/Celebration. The poem was handed-over to Ms. Villar, then Ms. Villar contacted Saturno then Saturno added the music to the lyrics in less than a day then it was hand-over back to Fr. Jojo, then Fr. Jojo presented the proposal song to the Dominican community and it was approved immediately.

The video: This video includes the audio and lyrics of the song Salamat Maria, the official theme song of the Centennial Celebration of the Canonical Coronation and Feast of La Naval de Manila, composed by Vehnee Saturno; Lyrics by Jovito Cariño; Arranged by Louie Ocampo; Ochestration by Herminigildo Ranera and the UST Symphony Orchestra and sung by Basil Valdez and Tiples de Sto. Domingo.
