The Pasyón is a Philippine narrative of the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ set as an epic poem.
In stanzas of five lines of eight syllables each, the standard elements
of epic poetry are interwoven with a colorful, dramatic theme. The
primary method of performing this text is its recitation during the Lenten season or Holy Week, and is a popular Catholic devotion.
The Pasyón is normally heard during Holy Week in the Philippines, where its recitation is known as the Pabasa ("Reading"). The rite can span several days, extending no later than Black Saturday, but is usually ended before 3 pm of Good Friday (the time when Jesus died on the cross).
