Introduction to “Kasadya Ning Taknaa” “Kasadya Ning Taknaa” is one of the most beloved Cebuano Christmas carols in the Philippines. Its title translates to “How Joyful Is This Season” and reflects the warmth, festivity, and community spirit of Filipino Christmas celebrations. Sung in Cebuano, the song captures the essence of the Visayan Christmas tradition — home visits, caroling, and shared joy — making it a staple in holiday gatherings across the country. Background of the Song This carol was composed in 1933 by Vicente Daclan Rubi, a Cebuano musician known for his melodic gifts and for writing songs rooted in local tradition. The lyrics were penned by Mariano Vestil, a poet and lyricist who captured the essence of the Visayan Christmas in words. Together, Rubi and Vestil created a timeless piece celebrating generosity, joy, and the communal tradition of caroling. Originally performed by groups of carolers in Cebu, “Kasadya Ning Taknaa” became popular because of its upbeat rhythm and memorable melody. It has been passed down through generations, firmly establishing itself as a Filipino Christmas classic. The Controversy with “Ang Pasko Ay Sumapit” and Josefino Cenizal’s Claim Later, the melody of “Kasadya Ning Taknaa” was adapted into a Tagalog version titled “Ang Pasko ay Sumapit,” with lyrics by Levi Celerio. While this adaptation became nationally famous, it sparked a long-standing controversy about authorship and credit. Some accounts state that Josefino Cenizal, a composer and musician active in the 1950s, claimed he had composed the music for a Christmas song in the late 1930s for a film project, later known as “Ang Pasko ay Sumapit.” Cenizal reportedly said that he asked Levi Celerio to write the Tagalog lyrics for his melody. Supporters of Cenizal argue that the Tagalog version was part of his original composition for a movie soundtrack. However, Cebuanos and music historians point out that Rubi and Vestil had already written “Kasadya Ning Taknaa” years earlier (1933) and that the melody of the Tagalog song mirrors Rubi’s composition. This has led to decades of debates over who should be credited for the music. Despite Cenizal’s claim, many scholars and Cebuano cultural advocates maintain that Rubi and Vestil’s song predates Cenizal’s and deserves proper recognition. This dispute highlights the importance of properly acknowledging regional and original creators in Philippine music. Summary of the Lyrics The lyrics of “Kasadya Ning Taknaa” celebrate the joy, renewal, and generosity of Christmas and the New Year. They highlight the delight of visiting homes, singing carols, and sharing blessings. The chorus speaks of a new year and a new life, encouraging listeners to sing and spread happiness. Each verse reinforces the communal, hopeful spirit of the season, making it a carol that resonates deeply with both young and old.
