Paiwan Every Day 269: semupu

masan musalj a tja palisian a kacalisian. 
izua kakudan a paka tua tja nasi a caucau, izua kakudan nua taqaljaqaljan a paka tua tja siquman, tja sikasaluan tua tja vuvu. 
masalut itjen a ljemita a cavilj, maljeveq itjen nu lima a cavilj. 
a tja kemudanga, a tja sepi, a tja qimang a caucau, sinipakicikel nua tja vuvu aya itjen. 

In English
Indigenous rituals are of two kinds. There is one kind for the business of our individual life as human, and there is another kind for the business of the people as a whole like farming or worshipping elders. We celebrate the harvest festival every year, and we celebrate the Five-year Ritual every five years. As we say, everything that we have, our dreams, and our good fortune in life are all given by our elders.
