@Rob....Batobalani is Cebuano word for 'magnet'. The song Batobalani sa Gugma is sung in each novena mass. Batobalani sa Gugma means Magnet of Love. The Holy Infant Jesus is a magnet of love.

@FindingParadise 8 месяцев назад

Thanks @lionhearted for that. I enjoyed talking with locals and learning new things about the Sinulog and Cebano culture. Hopefully others will find it interesting too. Cheers

“Pit Señor” is the short form of “Sangpit sa Señor,” a phrase in Cebuano that means, “to call, ask, and plead to the king, or "Long Live the Christ Child!" This call for help brings believers together. Cebuanos tend to shorten words or phrases. VIVA SEÑOR SANTO NIÑO! ' is 'Hail, Lord Holy Child! ' which is referred to Jesus Christ. On the other hand, the interpretative translation of 'VIVA PIT SEÑOR! ' is 'Hail Lord, listen to our prayers! I love Cebu! Viva Pit Señor Santo Niño! Viva Pit Senyor. ♥️👑

@@FindingParadise thank you. next week there’s another indigenous groups ati-atihan festival in Iloilo. 👍😊

@FindingParadise 8 месяцев назад

I actually went to that one back before the pandemic. I never got the time to edit and upload it. It's still sitting on my hardrive. I did have a great time there, it was a little smaller than Sinulog but I loved the costumes 🙂

@marierocher4422 8 месяцев назад

@@FindingParadise exactly. It’s smaller and I like their traditional attires. Cebu reflect more on Spanish mixed with the natives plus the offerings. The strong faith in the infant Jesus. We have 100 plus active indigenous and still protected and given land areas for them to live. Hopefully I can travel soon to Cebu. Relatives prefers Feb as a little cooler than the sweltering heat, although it’s due to the environmental problem. We never have that type of heat. Our maximum was 27/28 but several years now it’s burning heat. Ok, enjoy your holiday. Thank you.

@FindingParadise 8 месяцев назад

@marierocher4422 Cheers. I hope I can see that festival in Iloilo again. I remember I stayed at the Marriott which was located next to a park. During the festival they had this party there and it went on all night. I remember not getting any sleep from the constant thumping of the music. Even the windows were vibrating 😃. Anyhow it's interesting to travel and learn about different cultures. Hope you have a great trip to Cebu when you do come. Happy travels

Nice account of the festivities. Thanks for highlighting the different aspects of the celebration. Party on!🎉🎊 I missed this one (and the Christmas season) on purpose as I didn't want to arrive in the midst of it all but I should make it there in a few weeks after the whole party atmosphere subsides.

@FindingParadise 8 месяцев назад

Yeah I know people will avoid Cebu City during Sinulog. It's a very busy, noisy and crowded time. Hotel prices go up and it can be at times difficult to get transport. My feet were killing after all the walking.

@adventureneverstops 8 месяцев назад

@@FindingParadise Don't get me wrong. I don't mind participating in the festivities and whooping it up as long as I'm already there; I'm a natural partay animal😁. I just didn't want to arrive into that madness after a 20-hour flight. The next partay season then.

@FindingParadise 8 месяцев назад

@@adventureneverstops that makes sense! I wouldn't do a 20 hour flight into Sinulog either!

The song Batobalani sa Gugma is about the history of the arrival, founding and expansion of Christianity and the devotion of the Santo Niño in Cebu. Batobalani sa gugma means Magnet of Love for Jesus is the Magnet of Love.

Correction: the Santo Niño is not the patron saint of Cebu, rather, He is the titular of Cebu. The patron saint or patroness of Cebu is Our Lady of Guadalupe de Cebu proclaimed by the late Archbishop of Cebu, Ricardo Cardinal Vidal together with St. Pedro Calungsod as the Segunda Patron
