Pearl of the Orient Shines

In the heart of Southeast Asia, where seas meet sunny skies

Lies an archipelago beauty, with spirit that never dies

From Luzon's mountains towering, to Mindanao's shores so bright

Philippines, our beloved home, shining with delight

Pearl of the Orient shines, with hearts full of gold

Hospitality abounds, stories yet untold

From festivals to food so fine, culture that embraces all

Philippines, our treasure rare, standing tall

Cebu's historic landmarks, Boracay's beaches white

Chocolate Hills of Bohol, Vigan's charm day and night

Adobo to lechon feasts, utopia for taste buds free

Philippines, our heritage rich, in harmony
