Sulod, also known as Ligbok, is a Central Philippine language of the Suludnon indigenous people who reside in the mountain area of central Panay in the Philippines. It is closely related to the Karay-a language.
Sulod is spoken in the clustered sitios of Buri, Maranat, Siya, and Takayan along the banks of the Panay River, between Mt. Kudkuran and Mt. Baloy in central Panay.[2]
Below are verses from the first two stanzas of the second part of "Sugidanun I" ('First Narration') of the Sulodnon epic Hinilawod chanted by Hugan-an and recorded by Dr. F. Landa Jocano. The epic is in the original Sulodnon language.
"Sugidanun I": Pangayaw – 2. Himos[3]
Yabon-yabon pay tun-og | The dew was still fresh |
—F. Landa Jocano |
