One of the countries in the world that is linguistically and culturally rich is the Republic of the Philippines. It is composed of various tribes that contribute to its rich linguistic and cultural repertoire. One of these is the Tausug which does not only refer to the people, but also to their language, and culture (Velasco, 2015). From time immemorial, kalangan or song/s, have been featured or showcased in seasonal festivities such as enthronement, wedding ceremonies, or even war hence, it is evident that music runs in the veins of Tausug people that also makes up their identity. This study employed a descriptive-analytic research design that utilized a qualitative approach in the analysis of thirty-one (31) Tausug Contemporary Kalangan (Songs). Through the lens of Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), this study revealed and discussed the literary devices in the select kalangan. After the in-depth analysis, it was found out that there was a total of thirteen (13) literary devices evident as a textual practice in the select kalangan. The literary devices found were Symbolism, Leitmotif, Irony, Hyperbole, Metaphor, Rhetorical Questions, Simile, Metonymy, Objective Correlative, Allusion, Foreshadowing, Personification, and Repetition that revealed the themes such as love, adoration, heartbreak, oppression, manipulation, sorrow, dependence, power abuse of authority, Filial Piety, and strong Islamic faith. Through analyzing the literary devices in the Tausug songs, it has paved way to revealing truths about Tausug people and their culture.
