215th sonnet added to Malagilion: Soniton Pangasinan

215th sonnet added to Malagilion: Soniton Pangasinan. This sonnet is a fragment based on the Pangasinan Christmas carol known as Galikin or Aligando.

sonito 215
(inaon ed Galikin ono Aligando)

malinaew la'y panao'd saman
dia'd silong na melag a kamalir
no iner oadman ira'y ayayep
ya akaimaton ed inkianak
na Kataoan ed labin mareen

sindag na labiteoen ed taoen
tinumbok na talo'ran arari
angga'd asabi ra'y kaoalaan
na niñon akarukol ed osang

oadman met ira si managpastol
mandedengel ed saray anghilis
a mangankansio'y panangigalang

dia'd arap na masurin Dyus Anak
rigalo'y arari so insaklang

I was in the office of AlaminosCity.com last Monday and finally meet Pub and Dred in person. Btw, thanks for the Binungey :-)

I'm here in San Carlos City to visit their library hoping to find some Pangasinan literary works of interest. I got a copy of Aligando from Dr. Linda Andaya but it is incomplete and written in modern orthography. Perhaps the library here in San Carlos has a copy of the original.
