Lupang Hinirang

Bayang Magiliw
Perlas ng Silanganan
Alab ng Puso
Sa dibdib mo'y buhay
Lupang hinirang duyan ka nang magiting
Sa manlulupig di ka pasisiil
Sa dagat at bundok sa simoy at sa langit mong bughaw
May dilag ang tula at awit sa pag layang minamahal
Ang kislap ng watawat mo'y tagumpay na nagniningning
Ang bituin at araw na kailan pa may di mag didilim
Lupa ng araw ng luwalhati't pagsinta
Buhay ay langit sa piling mo
Aming ligaya na 'pag may mang-aapi
Ang mamatay ng dahil sa’yo.
