Daigon Christmas Song Lyrics

This is the lyrics of the song Daigon, a Hiligaynon or Ilonggo Christmas carol song. This is sung every Christmas as a caroling song as one of the last songs of the carolers as the song signifies leaving for another home or place. I will try to translate it later in English. Listen for the song below in Youtube starting at the timestamp of 1:48.


(An Ilonggo Christmas Carol Song)

Daigon

O dungga man ninyo
Ang makaluluoy
Nga yari sa idalom
Nga nagapasilong
Nagahulat sang inyo
Maayong kabubut on
Nagabatas sang tun og
Sining kagab ihon



Sa pagkabulahan nga gab i
Ang amon karon nga pagkari;
Kay natao ang manunubos
Sa kalibutan nga luhaan



Paalam na sa inyo
Mga kautoran
Kag kabay sang diwa
Kamo kaluoyan


 
Paalam paalam
Sa inyo nga tanan
Kay kami na karon
Ang magataliwan.

    I am glad and happy that you publish the lyrics of our beloved "Daigon" An Ilongo like would really appreciate that we can reminisce that beautiful song we grow up with. I am glad I found it at Google just as we celebrate Christmas this year. Just the same I am proud to say that my late father, Jose B. Caro composed his own version of an Ilongo Christmas carol title "Maghinugyaw" a song that has been sung for so many years at the end of "Simbang Gabi" and after Christmas eve mass at our hometown of Arevalo, Iloilo City. You can Google it. It was there the last time I checked. Just the same, Thnaks again. Dominic Caro
