Pasyon

Pasyon

The pasyon ( _es. pasión) is a narrative of the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ woven into a poem with stanzas of five lines and each line having eight syllables. This form of the passion narrative is popular in the Philippines especially during the season of Lent and particularly during Holy week when the pasyon is usually read or sung at home. It is basically a form of religious expression, meditation and reflection.

The indigenization of the pasyon was begun by Gaspar Aquino de Belén in "Ang Mahal na Passion ni JesuCristong Panginoon Natin na Tola" (The poem of the Passion of our Lord Jesus Christ), published in 1703 or 1704.

The more popular version of the pasyon is the "Casaysayan nang Pasiong Mahal ni Jesucristong Panginoon Natin na Sucat Ipag-alab nang Puso nang Sinomang Babasa" (The History of the Passion of Jesus Christ our Lord that will set afire the heart of whosoever reads it).

An 1852 erudition by Aniceto de Merced, "El libro de la vida" (The Book of Life), did not, however become popular with the masses.
