Bayang Magiliw,
Beloved country,
Perlas ng Silanganan
Pearl of the Orient,
Alab ng puso
The heart’s fervor,
Sa dibdib mo’y buhay
In your chest is ever alive.
Lupang Hinirang,
Chosen land,
Duyan ka ng Magiting,
You are the cradle of the brave.
Sa manlulupig
To the conquerors,
Di ka pasisiil.
You shall never win.
Sa dagat at bundok,
Through the seas and mountains,
Sa simoy at sa langit mong bughaw,
Through the air and your blue sky,
May dilag ang tula
There is splendor in the poem and song
At awit sa paglayang minamahal
For beloved freedom.
Ang kislap ng watawat mo’y
The sparkle of your flag
Tagumpay na nagniningning;
Is shining victoriously.
Ang bituin at araw niya,
Its stars and sun
Kailan pa ma’y di magdidilim
Shall forever never dim.
Lupa ng araw, ng luwalhati’t pagsinta,
Land of the sun, of glory and our affections,
Buhay ay langit sa piling mo,
Life is heaven in your arms;
Aming ligaya, na pag may mang-aapi,
It is our pleasure, when there are oppressors,
Ang mamatay nang dahil sa iyo.
To die for you.
