Beloved country, |
Lupang hinirang, |
Chosen Land, |
Sa dagat at bundok, |
Through the seas and mountains, |
Ang kislap ng watawat mo'y |
The sparkle of your flag |
Lupa ng araw, ng luwalhati't pagsinta, |
Land of the morning, of glory, of our affection, |

About Anthem
"Lupang Hinirang" is the national anthem of the Philippines. Its music was composed in 1898 by Julian Felipe in Spanish, with lyrics adapted from the poem Filipinas, written by a young poet-soldier named Jose Palma in 1899. Lupang Hinirang means "Chosen Land" in Filipino (photo: Makati City /source: Wikipedia).
