God the Father Choir from Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish, Malabon City. Conductor Mr. Mark Jones P. Simbit

"Kruhay" means "Long Live!" in Kinaray-a, a language native to Panay Island in central Philippines. The song, based on a folk-tale, narrates the arrival of 10 Bornean datus exiled by their ruler, Sultan Makatunaw. They reached the shores of Antique in balangays (boats) and brought saduk (wide-brimmed hat) and kulintas (necklace) which they bartered with the indigenous Ati.
