A case of Serendipity
A Song .....
and the Feedbacks
MAHJONG,  MGA ASAWA!!!
(Tune:  Kasadya Ning Takna-a)
(Lyrics: Braddock Calumpang)
         
I
   Maaaah-jong! Mga asawa!
   Mag-miron ang mga bana.
   Ayaw g'yug papuliha
   Labi na ug mag-ratsada.
  
   Hi-natagan sa puhunan

   Sa mga bana nga bo-utan
   P'nanggang mga asawa
   Hapo-hapon na, hilot-hiloton pa.

-chorus-
   Bag-ong tu-ig, Bag-ong kinabuhi
   Tsa, Doce Pares,  Sputnik,
      Ambisyon,

   Canciong, Kang, Joker, Bunot,
      Escalera

   Jackpot, Todopong, Mahjoooong!
  Hai!

                       II   
   Shooo-pping, mga asawa.

   Driver lang ang mga bana.
   Mag-sunod-sunod gayud sila
   Kay m'oy mopas-an kinumpra.

 
   Mag-lipay, mangatawa ta.
   Maghudyaka, magpasalamat ta.
   P’nanggang mga asawa
   Hapo-hapon na,

   Hilot-hilooooton paaaaa!!!
         
o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o
Trivia: :
    The lyrics of the popular Kasadya Ning Takna-a  were adapted  to set the mood during  this year’s  Tanjay Christmas Party held at Ebag&Sannie’s residence in Buena Park.   Someone  suggested that we share it with some  friends who somehow enjoy this kind of  parody.  We also cc’d members of our  tanjay@yahoogroups.com.  In no time,  during the holidays,  feedbacks/ comments started coming in which, unexpectedly and thankfully,  got us reconnected with many of our long-lost contacts.  And that’s serendipity worth sharing.
  
The feedbacks:

Ha, ha ha!  Salamat sa katawa ning Paskong taknaa!  Ajo-ajo kamo diha ug hinaut pa unta nga ang atong  Dios nga mahigugma-on magpa-nalangin kanimo ug sa tanang mga Tanjayanon ning tuig nga umaabot!

Pagka-spoiled ug pagka-swerte baya ning mga asawa sa Tanjay. . .  That song is a warning to all men seeking a  blissful life to stay away from the Tanjay girls. . . . And to think that it was written by Tanjay’s most famous and most eligible!   Sorry, Brads, but it’s too late for you now, waaa,  ha,  ha, ha!                          Tessie  .(via email)

The lyrics are well-thought of and how true, how true. .. I never suspected that you were going to jolt your loyal fans with a pleasant surprise such as this.   You elicited "the last laugh" from us before the year  ended.  Happy hoidays!!!

Ha, ha,  nice song, but unfair. . .   why don’t we do a sequel, in fairness to us husbands …
I will start it for you:
Maaaang-chicks ang mga bana
Kay nagmadyong ang mga asawa
Mga gwapo ra ba gud sila
Tigulang na, ay nagpa-charming pa.
(Braddcal, please finish our song.)

Wow,  it must be wonderful to be a Tanjay wife!  . . .  these  bana nga boutan who will give puhunan, carry the kinumpra,   then hilot-hiloton you.  Do they really exist?   Funny words. Congratulations.

Intawon pud ang mga bana, either they ought to unite as members of the "UHAW" (United Husbands Abused by Wives) club and do something to improve their lot, or maybe, they are just very happy treated that way!

. . . I printed the “Mahjong . . .” and gave it to my boss Docky Antonio.  Baling katawa niya. Exacto kono kaayo.  Iyang gidala kay ipakita niya sa iyang quorum.
