Ako ay Pilipino [English translation]

I am a Filipino

With royal blood.

Inherent in my heart,

the purpose that's so beautiful

To the Philippines, my country

Truly the Pearl of the Orient

Seemingly where the Almighty's wealth abound.

The wisdom given to me

will be used solely for the good;

To me, it's inherent

To be ever-loving.

CHORUS:

I am a Filipino,

I am a Filipino.

One nation, one spirit

Is what I fervently desire.

To my country and flag

I offer my life and spirit.

I am a Filipino,

A true Filipino.

I am a Filipino,

I am a Filipino.

Head high to anyone else

The Filipino is me!
