Si Bulusan Nan Si Agingay

 In times of old, beneath the Volcano's grace,

Lived a couple, Bulusan and Agingay, in a tranquil embrace.

Love and happiness filled their days,

A bond unbroken, a harmonious phase.

Yet, jealousy stirred in Casiguran's heart,

A son of Apu Juban, playing a treacherous part.

Envious of the couple's joy so bright,

He schemed to shatter their peaceful delight.

Though Casiguran had a wife, faithful and kind,

His eyes fixated on Agingay, a dark thought in his mind.

To rid his hatred, he planned his father's demise,

Accuse Bulusan, a web of deceit and lies.

Casiguran coerced the village soothsayer, Putiao,

To testify against Bulusan, his sinister shadow.

Agingay pleaded, but Casiguran remained cold,

Deaf to her pleas, his heart uncontrolled.

Before the elders, Gurang Donsol and Matnog,

Bulusan faced false accusations, a cruel flog.

Putiao's deceit led to a fearsome fate,

Fed to a Mampak bird, a death so innate.

Innocent Bulusan met his end,

Consumed by the bird, on the volcano's bend.

Yet, Casiguran's thirst for vengeance unmet,

He demanded more, a sinister regret.

Ordered Agingay to sacrifice her son,

Into the fiery mouth, the deed must be done.

Casiguran, now chieftain, craved more power,

A marriage proposal, a wicked hour.

Agingay, heartbroken, climbed the volcano's height,

Her infant son in tow, facing a gruesome plight.

Irosin, realizing Casiguran's deceit,

Confronted her husband, the truth bittersweet.

Putiao confessed the malevolence in the air,

The village elders, enraged, justice they'd declare.

Rushing to save Agingay, her newborn son,

Angry villagers united, the battle begun.

Discovering Putiao's lifeless frame,

Casiguran's minions, a gruesome game.

Upon the volcano's crater, a heart-wrenching sight,

Agingay lay lifeless, ending her own fight.

Casiguran, exposed, hidden no more,

Caught by the villagers, rage at their core.

Thrown into the fiery abyss he desired,

Vengeance claimed, justice acquired.

Down the volcano, mournful descent,

Agingay's lifeless body, villagers lament.

Tears blended with Bulusan's blood so pure,

Two lakes formed, a tragic allure.

Bulusan Lake and Agingay Lake, serene,

Witnesses to a tale, a love so keen.

The volcano, once a witness to pain,

Now known as Mt. Bulusan, in calmness to reign.
