Paruntuk Kana (Lontara script: ᨄᨑᨘᨈᨘᨀᨊ, parable) is a type of Makassarese poetry. It is similar to a proverb or aphorism and conveys advice, satire, or praise.[1][2] Nowadays, Paruntuk Kana is virtually forgotten by Makassarese people as a part of their culture. In the past, it was used to show the respectful or reminder about bad behavior.[2]

As Paruntuk Kana, Pasang is one of the Makassar literature types. It is the mean will of the old people about clues that can used as rule in social life.[3] especially about language and culture in Makassar such as religion, morality education, social life, economic etc.[3] One of it samples is morality education. It is about honesty that everyone has to own it.[3] Example: Pasanna IMangngadacinna daeng Sitaba karaeng Pattingngallowang.[3]
