Description:

Marami ang naipamana sa atin kabilang na dito ang tumuntong ng ibang bayan na madalas sambit na maganda ang magiging buhay at kasabay nito ang paglalakbay. Natamasang kalayaan matapos nang mabaling pananakop ng mga magkaibang lahi bago pa man malupig ay sagana sa kultura at yaman. Nariyan ang mga paniniwala "tabi tabi po" nang makaiwas sa dalawang posible na sakit o malas. Ang mukha at simoy ng probinsya. Lahat ng ito'y mga pamanang kultura.

Harana is a traditional form of courtship here in the Philippines where a man expresses his sincerity, loyalty, and love for a woman by singing and playing a guitar. It shows how far a man will go to earn a woman's love and trust. It captures the beauty of love in a unique form and even gives romantic excitement. Harana is a tradition we Filipinos should remember and treasure even in modern times.
