Sulu Folk Song
Francisco Carballo
Julia Bingham
Matapang naming morong datu
Maawaing totoo,
Sa kanyang mga sakop
Ay mabuting magpasunod.
Nang siys'y umalis
Mga tao'y tumangis.
The Good Datu
English Translation
In days gone by there lived a datu
Who was good to everyone.
His subjects loved him dearly,
Knowing that he ruled sincerely.
Then his death grief brought them.
Loud they wept, everyone.
