ROSAS PANDAN (Cebuano folk song), arr. George G.Hernandez /Novosadski kamerni hor, dir. B. Crnjanski

Ania si Rosas Pandan
Gikan pa intawon sa kabukiran
Kaninyo makiguban-uban
Sa gisaulog nga kalingawan
Balitaw day akong puhunan
Maoy kabilin sa akong ginikanan
Awit nga labing kara-an
Nga garbo ning atong kabungturan
Dika ding dika ding dika ding
Ayay sa atong balitaw
Manindot pa ug sayaw
Daw yamog ang kabugnaw
Dika dong dika dong dika dong
Ayay usab si Dodong
Nagtan-aw kang Inday
Nagtabisay ang laway
Ayayay ayayay ayayay
Aya-ay sa akong balitaw
Kanindot ba mosayaw
Daw yamog ang kabugnaw
Tigadong tigadong tigadong
Ayay usab si Dodong
Nagtan-aw kang Inday
Nagtabisay ang laway
Balitaw day akong puhunan
Maoy kabilin sa akong ginikanan
Awit nga labing kara-an
Nga garbo ning atong kabungturan

George Hernandez's arrangement did wonders for this otherwise obscure Cebuano song and turned it into an excellent choir piece appreciated internationally.

[@NurseTalking]

I beg to defer. The original version of Rosas Pandan has long been a popular folk song in the Cebuano and the Bisaya speaking provinces. He picked the song and arranged it because it is a musical piece that would click in the global arena. It's the hilarious lyric "nag tabisay ang laway" - the drooling saliva that made the song funny. Choirs like to sing funny and melodious songs.

[@mitch2192]

Heard it sung solo by the likes of Pilita Corrales and others and it's hohum mediocre. Turn it into a choir piece with its rhythmic crescendo and finissimo arrangement and it becomes magnifico.

[@dartfather]

​@@NurseTalkingThe lyrics has nothing to do with its popularity worldwide. It is the melody and the beat which are so ideally suited for choir.

[@musakeros30]

They sung like they are native Filipino. Wow so amazing.

[@narcruz9008]

My favorite version of them all.

[@urbangypsy6557]

If you search the song there is also one by South korean singers , students from the University of Texas

Rough Translation (my native language): Here is Rosas Pandan Coming sadly from the farm With you she joins company For your much-celebrated fun. A serenade is my earnest My heirloom from my parents A song so ancient That is the pride of our hills. (Dika ding, dika ding,dika ding!) Oh, so much of our serenade Is wonderful to dance And as cool as the morning dew. (Dika dong, dika dong, dika dong!) Oh, look again at Dodong He’s glancing at Inday And drooling with saliva. (Ayayay, ayayay, ayayay!) Oh to my serenade It looks good for dancing As cool as the morning dew. (Tiga dong, tiga dong, tiga dong!) Oh look again at Dodong He’s staring at Inday And drooling with saliva. La la la la… la la la la… Here is Rosas Pandan Coming sadly from the farm With you she joins company For your much-celebrated fun. A serenade is my earnest Left behind by my parents A song that is so old That is the pride of our hills. (Dika ding, dika ding,dika ding!) Oh, so much of our serenade Is wonderful to dance And as cool as the morning dew. (Dika dong, dika dong, dika dong!) Oh, look again at Dodong He’s glancing at Inday And drooling with saliva. (Ayayay, ayayay, ayayay!) Oh to my serenade It looks good for dancing And cool as the morning dew. (Tiga dong, tiga dong, tiga dong!) Oh look again at Dodong He’s staring at Inday And drooling with saliva. …He’s staring at Inday And drooling with saliva.

[@marianceciliaestrella2196]

I beg to differ a bit in your translation. Kabukiran in Cebuano does not mean farm but mountain or hill. So the 1st stanza of the song would mean: Here comes Rosas Pandan Who just arrived from the mountains

[@mistyrivers4995]

Thank you! That was fun to watch and read its meaning too appreciated

[@ALLAHwithdaughterALLAT]

anybody know why they using filipino song?

[@omarsharriff9161]

I realized that singing foreign song ( visayan ) has no boundaries .

[@barrypasaporte519]

Very good choir, i salute you all, Good Luck!

[@vmaxdigitalimage]

Question: Why this SONG had been such a number one choice in the repertoirre of singing chorale? Was the classical tempo that we heard and watched are that unique in setting the Adrenaline on its peak? Or is it the character played by chorale that we're get hooked on? This manifestation of encouraging wits played by the group of talented choir has an overwhelmed impact on both the chorale, conductor and audiences alike which are evidently seen when it performed in several key cities in Europe, Asia and Americas. This Rosas Pandan hype has given me absolute entertainment from start to finish whenever I've watching it, it transcends me into "IMMORTALITY".

[@ikawangtanan]

I have the same question, man.

[@moodgorning9877]

Yea same... Idk what it is about our folk songs being sang by foreigners...

[@NurseTalking]

The new arrangement of Rosas Pandan has that fiery and bombastic element that is best shown in choral music. It ends in such a vocal excitement that relates to the lad's drooling saliva smitten by the dancing beautiful maiden.

[@NurseTalking]

@@moodgorning9877 The arranger is a Filipino music choral conductor in San Francisco. I man not sure if he is Cebuano.

[@frankacuso]

@@NurseTalking George Hernandez started it in 1995 in Barcelona with Rosas Pandan when he was requested to arrannge a foreign song for everybody to sing. He was a UP grad and now a music teacher in SF. Rosas pandan was soon followed by many more of his arrangements like ayayay pagibig, paro parong bukid, leron leron sinta, etc....

[@salvadornudalo1488]

I'd like very much the gesture of the conductor. He knows best the direction, and the meaning of music even though it's a Cebuano dialect. The chorale also one of the best in the world. That's my personal opinion.
