• Pilipinas kong mahal lyrics:

  Ang bayan ko'y tanging ikaw,

  Pilipinas kong mahal.

  Ang puso ko at buhay man,

  Sa iyo'y ibibigay.

  Tungkulin ko'y gagampanan,

  Na lagi kang paglingkuran,

  Ang laya mo’y babantayan,Pilipinas kong hirang.
• Philippine National Anthem

  Bayang Magiliw,

  Perlas ng Silanganan

  Alab ng Puso

  Sa dibdib mo'y buhay

  Lupang hinirang

  Duyan ka ng magiting,

  Sa manlulupig di ka pasisiil.

  Sa dagat at bundok

  Sa simoy at sa langit mong bughaw

  May dilag ang tula

  At awit sa paglayang minamahal.

  May kislap ang watawat mo'y

  Tagumpay na nagniningning

  Ang bituin at araw niya

  Kailan pa ma'y di magdidilim.

  Lupa ng araw, ng luwalhati't pagsinta

  Buhay ay langit sa piling mo

  Aming ligaya na pag may mang-aapi

  Ang mamatay nang dahil sayo.
