Discovering kapangpangan landscape and humanscape...

Why tarebalak?
Deng tarebalak are the skinks (or scincidae) that are known to us as the common backyard lizards. They belong to the family scincidae, which is the largest family of lizards, with at least 700 named species. They are truly cosmopolitan, distributed in the tropical, subtropical and temperate zones of all continents save Antarctica, plus many oceanic islands, New Zealand and Madagascar. In the Philippines, these species of Lygosoma smaragdinum are variously called in many names like tarebalak and timbabalak in Kapampangan, and bubuli in Tagalog. They are a close the relatives of the Kapampangan galakgak, lupisak, dapu, himbubuli, bangkalang, tuku (Tag. hunyango), and banyas and barag (Tag. bayawak).

Kapampangans are like tarebalaks, they are truly cosmopolitan, living in the tropical kapangpangan.

KAWATASAN/ Kapampangan Poetry

KANAKUNG KATAKUTAN
Neng Arnel D. Garcia

Mibanya ne naman, Kanakung katakutan
Pilit keng iwasan, lalu nakung lalapitan
Anya neng kayi, mangutang kareng kaluguran
Nung makananung lugud ampong dapat gawan

Ing lulugud, balu yu naman siguru
Talagang ibie mungan anggang agyu mu
Pero kapamu, alang mararapat kanaku
Siguru uli na itang sobrang lugud ku

Obat makanyan, iyang mawawala itang buri mu
Ot ing emu buri, iyang milalapit kanaku
Eku mu balu pota mulala ne y kupidu
Siguru baligtad lareng pamana na kanaku

Nung talagang makanyan ing bie
Eku pa murin sumuku angang mabie
Andiyang makanyan kumu pamibiebie
Alit ke sana, karapat dapat kung dake

Alang patugut lang sasagpang

Karing libutad da ring asikan
Anting kuyug durun lang dintang

Bagyung sinalangi karing dungan
Ginulasiong malbang mibanlikan

E sumawa ing ninu man ban simsiman do diwa, at pamisukung o pamibabalangkas ding mesambitlang poesia. Isipan mu namung ing poeta Alzadon eya bait Pampanga nune tubu yang Tarlac, dapot kapilan man e miwale at melanta ing lugud na at pakamal king Amanung Siswan. Agyang milya-milya man ing DAYU na king labuad nang tibuan, e meging sumbagal iti ban lalung MILAPIT at SARIWA king pusu na ing LINGAP at pamangambul king mana tang salita. Nga napin ning melapupuring Poeta Jose M. Gallardo, “tin kanung penandit keng bie ing Literaturang Kapampangan a deng poeta’t talasulat na ning Tarlac antimo di Conrado Gwekoh, Rosa Yumul at aliwa pa, ila ring manibabo kasuyuwan keng kultura kesa karing makudta na ning Pampanga .Imbes king umisan ka, lakuas keng purian , pupugayan at tatas a uri ing gelingan ning poeta ning Capas keng pamangamit nang kumbinasyung English at Kapampangan. Apatindag ne kule emu ing pluma tang sarili nune pati na ing panyulat deng daywan, at e masisira ing diwa ning poesia karing miagum a rima karing kayang bersada o telatag a mayan mung paki-intindian agyang bayu kang usbung a talasulat.

Mupin, tanggapan tamu’t ali, atin lang amanu o salita deng Kapampangan ning Tarlac a e pamilyar at era balu kabaldugan ding Kapampangan a dagul keti Pampanga . Ayantimo ing “Dakilang Amen”, a ing buri na palang sabian - “ing Guino tang Jesuscristo at ya ing mismung AMEN at TAPAT A SAKSI ning DIOS”. Emu ini, dakal la pa, antimo reng makatuki; timbutajil, kulumparit, maniulul, uliul, bantiti, salpitik, etc. Sana abie no kabaldugan ketang lalam a awsan dang “footnote” o kaya keng separadung “glosaryo” ketang tawli nang bilungan ning libru.

Dapot king kabilugan, metung yang kapuri-puring pamasan iting aklat nang “ZALDO ABNER” (Renato B. Alzadon). Sana, maging giebnan at talete ya iti, ban lakwas yang lumabung at sumulung ing malalanat nang kultura at literatura ning Indung Balayan. Luid ya ing Balen tang Tibuan! Luid ya ing Amanung Siswan!!
