Lupang Hinirang



FILIPINO VERSION:
Nina Julian Cruz Balmaceda, Ildefonso Santos, at Francisco Caballo; ang pinakahuling salinwika ng 1962

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 iyo.


ENGLISH VERSION:
ni Senador Camilo Osias at Mary A. Lane

Land of the morning
child of the sun returning,
With fervor burning, thee do our souls adore.
Land dear and holy, cradle of noble heroes,
Ne'er shall invaders, trample thy sacred shores.
Even within thy skies and through thy clouds,
And o'er thy hills and seas.
Do we behold the radiance,
Feel the throb of glorious liberty.
Thy banner, dear to all our hearts,
Its sun and stars alight.
O - never shall its shining field,
Be dimmed by tyrant's might!
Beautiful land of love, O land of light,
In thine embrace 'tis rapture to lie.
But it is glory ever, when thou art wronged,
For us, thy sons, to suffer and die.
