Sadto (trasnlated as dati or noon in tagalog)
Pinaniniwalaang na ang kantang ito ay ginawa ng isa tao na dumalaw sa Isla ng Homonhon.
Sinasalarawan ng kanta ito ang pagiging masayahin ng mga taga-Homonhon sa harap ng kahirapan.
Sinasalamin rin ng kanta ang klase ng buhay ng mga taga-Homonhon at inisa-isa rito ang mga barangay sa isla.
Homonhon is an island in the province of Eastern Samar, Philippines, on the south east side of Leyte Gulf. The place is more known to be the island of Ferdinand Magellans first landfall when he circumnavigated the Earth.
The whole island is a public/forest land. In 1992, the Bureau of Forest Management awarded Certificate of Stewardship to some individuals and families in Homonhon. With this Certificate of Stewardship, the recipients are given the right to occupy or till a given portion of the forest lands for twenty five years. Among these recipients was the family of Tata Ladying.
However, a Chinese mining company comes to the island and starts putting No Trespassing signs not sparing the farms of the natives like Tata Ladying asserting that these are part of its mining claim.
Tata Ladying, a fisherman and a farmer goes asking the authorities on the legal basis of this companys action, hoping to obtain justice and to get back the land that the government has awarded him.
