La Union (Ilocano: Probinsya ti La Union; Tagalog: Probinsya ng La Union; Pangasinan: Luyag na La Union), is a province in the Philippines located in the Ilocos Region in the island of Luzon. Its capital is the city of San Fernando.
The province is bordered by Ilocos Sur to the north, Benguet to the east, Pangasinan to the south, and to the west by the shores of the South China Sea.
La Unión, "The Union" in Spanish, was formed in 1850 when the Spanish colonial government of Governor-General Antonio Maria Blanco merged the three southern towns of Ilocos Sur province, the nine northern towns of Pangasinan, and the western towns of Benguet to the east (Eastern Pais del Igorotes in the Cordilleras). Pangasinenses were the majority in the new province because most towns had been in the Province of Pangasinan.
On October 29, 1849, Governor General Claveria issued a "promovido" to fuse the Pangasinan-Ilokos-Cordillera areas into "La Union". On March 2, 1850, Governor General Antonio Maria Blanco signed the Superior Decreto of La Union (34th province from Cebu-1565), with Captain Toribio Ruiz de la Escalera as the first Gobernador Military y Politico. Isabella II of Spain decreed the province's creation on April 18, 1854. In 1661, Andres Malong (Pangasinan) failed to recover La Union from the Spaniards after the Battle of Agoo. In 1896, the people of La Union began a revolt against the Spanish, who had called La Union “Una Provincia Modelo", ed by Manuel Tinio Y Bondoc under Emilio Aguinaldo. The Americans collaborated with the Filipinos to end the Spanish.

Bagulin is a fifth class municipality in the province of La Union, Philippines. According to the 2010 census, it had a population of 12,590 people.
Tradition reveals that Bagulin derived its name from a Kankanaey tribal leader. Sometime in the middle of the 18th century, the municipality is part of the township of Allabok which covers the moderate slopes of the mountain ranges overlooking the China Sea. During those times, war tribes was prevalent. Allabok involved itself in a tribal war headed by Bagulin who led the community to victory. From then on until his death, the people highly regarded him as their noble leader. After his death, consensus with the residents together with the concurrence of Spanish authorities resulted into naming the community after Bagulin. At present, Kankanaey still dominate the town’s population.
Another etymological version states that “Bagulin” was derived from the term “bago” which means “lowland natives”. This version is further supported by the fact that Kankanaeys comprise some 85% of the municipal population.
Si quisieras
ver mi interior.
Si quisieras
no tendría que rogarte
no es mi intención
no puedo creer
que tú ya no estés de vuelta,
y que es mejor no volvernos a ver
hoy no habría corazones rotos si tú quisieras.
Si quisieras
darte una opción
si quisieras
yo podría intentarlo
una vez más.
No puedo perder
nada esta vez
no digas que todo esto lo haces por mi bien
hoy no habría corazones rotos.
No puedo creer
que tú ya no estés de vuelta,
y que es mejor no volvernos a ver
