If you read this folk song with an anthropological view, it will reveal units of measurements and the picture of a woman in traditional go-to-the-ball garb complete with head decorations. She's described from hair to hem. See the arrows.
Paruparong Bukid
Paruparong bukid na lilipad-lipad
Sa gitna ng daan papagapagaspas
Isang bara ang tapis <==
Isang dangkal ang manggas <==
Ang sayang de kola isang piyesa ang sayad <==
May payneta pa siya -- uy! <==
May suklay pa mandin -- uy! <==
Nagwas de-ohetes ang palalabasin <==
Haharap sa altar at mananalamin
At saka lalakad na pakendeng-kendeng.
