Philippine, my motherland!
how beautiful you are to know and see
in being a thousand islands to venture
landscapes quite panoramic, beaches white
i adore being a Filipino born to live here
people so nice keep smiling amidst poverty
peace loving, honest, caring and sincere
in close family ties is the legacy we have
never to abandon our culture as Filipinos
even when foreigners shall come to conquer
stand for sovereignty and never surrender.
