The Tikbalang. ( a little background might not be amiss, so here goes, borrowed from Wikipedia)
Tikbalang (also written Tigbalang, Tigbalan, or Tikbalan) is a creature of Philippine folklore said to lurk in the mountains and forests of the Philippines. It is generally described as a tall, bony humanoid creature with disproportionately long limbs, to the point that its knees reach above its head when it squats down. It has the head and sometimes feet of an animal, most commonly a horse. It is sometimes believed to be a transformation of an aborted fetus which has been sent to earth from limbo.
See her how she flies Golden sails across the sky Close enough to touch But careful if you try Though she looks as warm as gold The moon's a harsh mistress The moon can be so cold
Once the sun did shine Lord, it felt so fine The moon a phantom rose Through the mountains and the pines And then the darkness fell And the moon's a harsh mistress It's so hard to love her well
I fell out of her eyes I fell out of her heart I fell down on my face Yes, I did, and I -- I tripped and I missed my star God, I fell and I fell alone, I fell alone And the moon's a harsh mistress And the sky is made of stone
This time: Maria Makiling, in Philippine mythology, is said to be a diwata, which roughly translated means fairy or goddess. She is said to inhabit Mount Makiling in Laguna province and protects the mountain from those who would harm or defile it. She allows people to come and go as long as they don't harm the plants or animals and she forbids them to take anything from the mountain. Any who do are sure to invoke her wrath.
