 “Leron–Leron Sinta”

Original Text
English Translation
Leron, leron sinta
Leron, leron, my love,
buko ng papaya
Blossoms of the papaya tree
dala-dala’y buslo
With a bamboo basket (climbs tree)
sisidlan ng bunga
He'd gather some fruits.
pagdating sa dulo
When he reached the top,
nabali ang sanga
The  branch broke
kapos kapalaran
Oh what a trick of fate
humanap ng iba!
 He had to search for another!


Gumising ka Neneng
Wake up, Neneng,
tayo'y manampalok
Let’s pick some tamarind fruits
Dalhin mo ang buslo, 
Take the bamboo basket,
Sisidlan ng hinog
To put the ripe ones in
Pagdating sa dulo'y 
Upon reaching the top
lalamba-lambayog
The branches swayed
Kumapit ka Neneng, 
Hold on tight, Neneng,
baka ka mahulog.
As you might fall.


Ang iibigin ko’y,
I will love
lalaking matapang
a fearless man
Ang baril niya’y pito,
He got seven guns,
ang sundang ay siyam.
Nine knives
Ang lalakarin niy’a’y
The journey he will take,
parte ng dinulang.
Is the table distance
Isang pinggang pansit,
With a plate of pancit
ang kanyang kalaban!
The foe he will engage!

A.        Kultural o Historikal na Impormasyon ng Awit
                                     Cultural or Historical Information of the Song 

"Leron, Leron, Sinta" is a folk song about courtship.   Courtship during the olden times entails serving and gift-giving of a man to the family of the woman he intends to court.  The act would certainly please the maiden's family and would endear the guy to them. Included in the service is picking of fruits, helping in the harvest of produce such as grains or vegetables, household services such us fetching of water and minor repairs in the house.  These acts show the man's sincerity in his intention.  Also, it proves to the woman's father his various skills and abilities.  Until the first five decades of the 20th century, these practices are still honored in some rural areas.

"Leron" may be a man's name or a term of endearment for a young man in any Tagalog speaking province. Someone called upon Leron to gather papaya fruits but instead of getting ripe ones he aimed for the buds.  When he got to the of the tree, the branch broke.

"Buko" means "bud" or the flowers.  No one should harvest flowers or bud because it will be wasted.  This means that Leron did not have the wisdom or the good judgment that his endeavor ended in disappointment.

"Neneng" is a term of endearment addressed to any young maiden in the Tagalog rural areas. As in the first stanza, the girl is summoned to gather tamarinds.  She climbed the tree and was warned to be careful as the branch is swaying and she might fall.  In courtship, young men and women are warned to be careful and obey their elders' advice.  Otherwise they may end up remorseful.

In the third stanza of the song, the man courting the woman wants to prove his courage.  There is, however, a twist in the song, because instead of proving himself in battlefield, the guy is going to prove how good his appetite is in eating.  This also shows Filipino sense of humor.  "Parte ng dinulang" refers to a place in the dining table (called "dulang" in the olden times.  This is a low table very much akin to the Japanese low table used for dining) which he can assign to himself.  His bravery, therefore, can be tested in eating the food offered to him.
