I love my own my native land
Philippines, my Philippines
To thee I give my heart and hand
Philippines, my Philippines.
the trees that crown thy mountains grand,
the seas that beat upon thy strand
Awake my heart to thy command,
Philippines, my Philippines.

English Literal Translation

Philippines, my love
My heart and my life
For you I'll freely give.

I willingly fulfill my duty,
To always serve you,
Your freedom I will guard,
Philippines, my love.
