The Philippines National Anthem - "Chosen Land"Pambansang Awit ng Pilipinas, "Lupang Hinirang".
--------------------------------------------
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.
Ang kislap ng 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 sa 'yo.
Translation:
Beloved country,
Pearl of the Orient,
The heart's fervor
In your bosom is ever alive.
Chosen Land,
You are the cradle of the brave.
To the conquerors
You shall never surrender.
Through the seas and mountains,
Through the air and your azure skies,
There is splendor in the poem
And song for dear freedom.
The sparkle of your flag
Is shining victory.
Its stars and sun
Forever will never dim.
Land of the morning, of glory, of our affection,
Life is heaven in your arms;
When someone oppresses you, it is our pleasure
To die for you
