The First MonkeyLong ago, in a forest, lived a young girl who served as an apprentice of the goddess of weaving. She was cared for and well-provided for by her supernatural benefactor.One day, the goddess instructed her to prepare a dress by cleaning some cotton, beating it, spinning it, weaving it into cloth, cutting it, and finally sewing it.Unfortunately, the young girl was quite lazy and found the dress-making process too tedious. So she took the leather cloth (used to beat the cotton on), a wore it thinking it would make a much longer-lasting dress. Enraged, the goddess punished the young girl by making the leather stick to her skin, and by attaching the beating stick to her body.So when you see a monkey with leather skin and a long tail, remember that lazy girl who once didn't have to struggle in the forest to keep herself alive. |

litoo1 folksong
Ang dalagang Pilipina Parang tala sa umaga Kung tanawin ay nakaliligaya May ningning na tangi at dakilang ganda Bulaklak na tanging marilag Ang bango ay humahalimuyak Sa mundo'y dakilang panghiyas Pang-aliw sa pusong may hirap | Batis ng ligaya at galak Hantungan ng madlang pangarap Ganyan ang dalagang Pilipina Karapat-dapat sa isang tunay na pagsinta (Maging sa ugali, maging kumilos, mayumi, mahinhin, mabini ang lahat ng ayos Malinis ang puso maging sa pag-irog may tibay at tining ng loob.) |
