"Doon po sa amin, bayan ng San Roque,
May nagkatuwaang apat na pulubi;
Nagsayaw ang pilay, umawit ang pipi,
Nanood ang bulag, nakinig ang bingi."
One Valenzuela visited the San Roque chapel in Brgy. Mabolo yesterday. San Roque is the Patron Saint of the sick and invalid. He is also known as the Patron Saint of the unmarried in the city, thus, drawing many devotees looking for "the one" to also participate in the street dancing activity which is done yearly.
The feast is celebrated every 12th of May, which happens to be tomorrow. Expect the chapel and the streets near it to be full of merry people. Mano po, San Roque! Happy Fiesta!
