For a person to gasp for air, as of a drowning person or
someone who is about to die; for the soul of a dead person to
flicker on and off, or flame up and down, in a coconut palm grove
or out at sea.
Mo-ya inita amen tang molang galmet, sisi-bo
si-bo ra lamang.
It's a good thing we saw the child drowning, he was already gasping
for
air.
Si Lolo grabi ra, sisi-bo
si-bo ra lamang.
Grandfather is very serious, he is already gasping
his

Inita amen tang pagdingkal, pisan ang sisi-bo
si-bo don ong kanioyan.
We saw the soul of a dead person flickering, it was really
flaming
up there in the coconut palm grove.
