Pangasinan Ghazal 54
akaeleoat ak la’d sayan lemay

malteng la’y nabuas ya ag onsalay
dia’d anlong ko labat la mansiansia’y
inekeman kon ermen tan lemay

First-ever Asna Award in Pangasinan set
LINGAYEN, Pangasinan, March 14 – The first-ever Asna Award in Pangasinan will be conferred on outstanding Pangasinenses on April 5 this year in connection with the maiden celebration of the 430th Foundation Day of the province.
The Asna Award is distinct from other awards or programs because of its being selective, its prestige and integrity and it accords the highest expression of award recognition to outstanding Pangasinenses.
Asna, an old form of the Pangasinan word “Asin”, usually describes the good quality of a man’s character or his demeanor.
It is from the word "asin" that Pangasinan derived its name. "Pangasinan" was the name given to the province shortly after it was founded by early Spaniards on April 5, 1580.
The Asna Award seeks to give due recognition to outstanding Pangasinenses whose selfless dedication to their profession or vocation has resulted in outstanding contributions to the welfare of the people in Pangasinan and to the country at large.
It is also geared to inspire others, especially the youth, so they could emulate the achievements and leadership skills of the awardees.
The awards committee is composed of highly credible and knowledgeable individuals from the six congressional districts of the province chaired by Arabela V. Arcinue, president of the Pangasinan Heritage Society Inc.
The members shall search for nominations, submit these to the committee, conduct the preliminary screening of nominees and subsequently administer the final judging.
To enable the committee to judge fully and assess equitably the degree of success and extent of an achievement’s repercussions, all nominations should be well documented, as the committee places considerable weight on the testimony submitted by each nominator.
Public officials who are currently elected or running for public office this coming May elections are disqualified to be nominated to the Asna Award.
All entries should be mailed or personally delivered on or before March 22, 2010 to Marion Puzon, secretary, Pangasinan Heritage Society Inc., or Malu Elduayan, Tourism Operations division’s chief of Pangasinan. (PNA)

Pangasinan Ghazal 53 (ed Alexandrine)
ikorit ko’y sankaermenan ya anlong
a singa say alikna to nen Neruda
ed sayan labi managaag so bulan
pirawat kon banbantagan mo met iya
tan nanonotan mo iyan mananangaro
a singa no say pannunnonot ko’d sika
dia’d kareenan tonia’y labi pinabli
malingsi’y nengneng ko’d mayumis mon lupa
anggapo’y arum ya piaet o’ pilalek
no ag ta say naaplos ka’d sayan bekta
anggapo’y arum ya tindek o’ gunaet
no ag ta say nalakap ka’d labin aya
bangta maatap kan singa no say musiak
ta onsabin labus no siak la’y mananlong

Pangasinan Ghazal 52
no aliknam labat komu'y sakit
tan say onganget na kaarawi
natalusan mo anganko bilay
no akin et sika so pinabli
ta inter ed sika so balangon
nepeg labat ed saray binari
anggapo so gamor ya ugagep
no ag ta say pamirbir mo agi
ya aminsan et wala'y Santiagon
angaro'd sika balet nauli
ta ag abalikas ira'y ey-ey
nen say panangaro malangwer ni
nen yarawi ka na kapalaran
sinmugat so salitan inkorit
