A country of happiness and sorrow
Inhabitants hoping for a better tomorrow
Perhaps history will refresh your mind
What I’m talking about, you’ll soon find
On the date of April 1521
The fight in Mactan had begun
Spaniards may his enemies be
Lapu-lapu fought to set his people free
Aguinaldo declared on this date
Though the Spaniards still remained
Our freedom is already attained
We fell yet again in
With the raised flag of proud
The Americans then restored our liberty
And left the country in tranquility
Let’s now leave the war and fights
And start dictating the marvelous sights
Of wonder, amazement, and beauty
Oh, no, I’m afraid there’s just too many
Examples are the Boracay shores
Up, up, the top of Mayon soars
The Chocolate Hills make my tummy rumble
Down the Rice Terraces you don’t want to tumble
So there, I hope you could now see
That Filipinos are indeed very lucky
And that I’m really proud to say,
“I’m a Filipino in each and every way!”
