Love Of A Child

For those of you who are curious as to what is the meaning of the title of my blog, here is my answer.

"Ti Ayat Ti Maysa Nga Ubing" is an Ilocano folk song which means "love of a child" in English. 

I have associated this blog to the song because of my undying love for my family, my friends and all the strangers I meet as I go along with life.

Being young means being free from stress, from burden and from the hassles of being an adult.


The love of a child is pure, unbiased, and untapped.

Only a child could understand and stop for a while to see or smell a beautiful flower, to play in the rain and to cherish all the small things he has.

Let us all be like a child with love as innocent and as pure as the dainty jasmine in the wild. 

Let us not forget that once in our life, we are young and carefree.




Below please find the lyrics of the Ilocano Folk Song:


Ti Ayat Ti Maysa Nga Ubing

Ti ayat ti maysa nga ubing,
Nasamsam-it ngem hasmin
Kasla sabong nga apag-ukrad
Iti bulan ti Abril

Ti ayat ti maysa a lakay,
Aglalo no agkabaw,
Napait, napait, napait a makasubkar.

Anansa a tao lelong,
Agsapulka tay balo
A kapadpad ta ubanmo
Ken dayta tuppolmo
Ta bay-am a panunuten
Ti ayat ti maysa nga ubing
Aglalo, aglalo no addan makin-aywanen

Ti ayat ti maysa nga ubing,
Nasamsam-it ngem hasmin
Kasla sabong nga apag-ukrad
Iti bulan ti Abril.

Ti ayat ti maysa a lakay,
Aglalo no agkabaw,
Napait, napait, napait a makasubkar.

Anansa a tao lelong,
Agsapulka tay balo
A kapadpad ta ubanmo
Ken dayta tuppolmo
Ta bay-am a panunuten
Ti ayat ti maysa nga ubing
Aglalo, aglalo no addan makin-aywanen
Aglalo, aglalo no addan makin-aywanen
