Pidjanga

(Glossogobius giuris) is a freshwater fish native to Mainit Lake. It is called “biya” in Tagalog and “white goby or tank goby” in English. The term “pidjanga” is also sometimes fondly used to refer to the Mainitnons, the people of the Municipality of Mainit, a town in Southern Philippines. This blog hopes to capture potentials of Migrants Pidjangas for the Development of our Town by attempting to document development issues, folk stories, and current concerns, about the Pidjanga — both the fish and the people.

BAYANG DINARANGAL
(Mainit Hymn, Music & Lyrics by: Brando G. Juan)

I
MAINIT, SURIGAO DEL NORTE
KARIKTAN MO AY NATATANGI
UMAGA AY LAGING MAY NGITI
KASAMA KA, SA BAWAT MITHI

II
BAYAN, NAMING DINARANGAL
HANDOG KA SA'MIN NG MAYKAPAL
YAMA'T KALIKASAN MO'Y BUKAL
T'WINA'Y KATUWANG NA MARANGAL

Koro:
IKAW, AKO AT TAYONG LAHAT
ABUTIN ANG MGA PANGARAP
MAGKAPIT BISIG SA PAGLAKAD
TUNGO SA LANDAS NG PAG-UNLAD

(Repeat II & Koro then coda)
CODA:
ISIGAW NATIN SA BUONG MUNDO
ISANG BAYAN, ISANG TINIG TAYO
ISIGAW NATIN SA BUONG MUNDO
ISANG BAYAN, MAINITNON TAYO
