Lupang Hinirang

"**Lupang Hinirang**" (Baybayin: ᜎᜓᜉᜅ᜔ ᜑᜒᜈᜒᜇᜅ᜔,  ; "Chosen Land"), originally known in Spanish as "**Marcha Nacional Filipina**", is the national anthem of the Philippines. Its music was composed by Julián Felipe in 1898, and the lyrics (words) were adapted from the Spanish poem _Filipinas_, which was written by Filipino soldier José Palma y Velásquez a year later. This song was first adopted as the anthem of the First Philippine Republic in 1898, but without words. By the 1940s, the original Spanish lyrics were translated into Filipino (a variety of Tagalog). The Filipino lyrics became official in 1958 and was revised in 1963, then it became embedded in law in 1998.

### Official lyrics in Filipino

The Filipino version was translated by Felipe Padilla de León in 1958, and was revised in 1963.

|<poem>Bayang magiliw, Perlas nang silanganan, Alab ang puso Sa dibdib mo'y buhay. Lupang hinirang, Duyan ka nang 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 nang watawat mo'y Tagumpay na nagniningning; Ang bituin at araw niya, Kailan pa ma'y di magdidilim. Lupa nang araw, nang luwalhati't pagsinta, Buhay ay langit sa piling mo; Aming ligaya na 'pag may mang-aapi, Ang mamatay nang dahil sa iyo.</poem>|<poem>[ˈba.jɐŋ mɐ.ˈɡi.lɪʊ̯] [ˈpeɾ.lɐs nɐŋ sɪ.lɐ.ˈŋa.nɐn] [ˈa.lɐb nɐŋ ˈpu.so(ʔ)] [sa dɪb.ˈdib moɪ̯ ˈbu.haɪ̯] [ˈlu.pɐŋ hɪ.ˈni.ɾɐŋ] [ˈdu.jɐn k(x)ɐ nɐŋ mɐ.ˈɡi.tɪŋ] [sa mɐn.lʊ.ˈlu.pɪg] [ˈdi(ʔ) k(x)ɐ pɐ.sɪ.sɪ.ˈʔil] [sa ˈda.gɐt ʔɐt bʊn.ˈdok] [sa ˈsi.moj ʔɐt sa ˈla.ŋɪt moŋ bʊɡ.ˈhaʊ̯] [maj dɪ.ˈlaɡ ˈʔaŋ tʊ.ˈla] [ʔɐt ˈʔa.wɪt sa pɐ.gla.jɐŋ mɪ.nɐ.mɐ.ˈhal] [ˈʔaŋ kɪs.ˈlap nɐŋ wɐ.ˈta.wɐt moɪ̯] [tɐ.ˈgum.pɐj na nɐg.nɪ.nɪŋ.ˈniŋ] [ˈʔaŋ bɪ.tʊ.ˈ(ʔ)in ʔɐt ˈʔa.ɾɐʊ̯ ɲa] [k(x)ɐɪ̯.ˈlan pɐ maɪ̯ ˈdi(ʔ) mɐg.dɪ.dɪ.ˈlim] [ˈlu.pɐ(ʔ) nɐŋ ˈʔa.ɾɐʊ̯ nɐŋ lwɐl.ˈha.tɪt pɐɡ.ˈsin.tɐ] [ˈbu.haɪ̯ (ʔ)aɪ̯ ˈla.ŋɪt sa ˈpi.lɪŋ mɔ] [ʔɐ.ˈmiŋ lɪ.ˈga.jɐ na pɐɡ maj mɐŋ ʔɐ.ʔɐ.ˈpi] [ˈʔaŋ mɐ.mɐ.ˈtaj nɐŋ ˈda.hɪl sa jɔ]</poem>|<poem>ᜊᜌᜅ᜔ ᜋᜄᜒᜎᜒᜏ᜔᜵ ᜉᜒᜇ᜔ᜎᜐ᜔ ᜈᜅ᜔ ᜐᜒᜎᜅᜈᜈ᜔᜵ ᜀᜎᜊ᜔ ᜈᜅ᜔ ᜉᜓᜐᜓ᜵ ᜐ ᜇᜒᜊ᜔ᜇᜒᜊ᜔ ᜋᜓᜌ᜔ ᜊᜓᜑᜌ᜔᜶ ᜎᜓᜉᜅ᜔ ᜑᜒᜈᜒᜇᜅ᜔᜵ ᜇᜓᜌᜈ᜔ ᜃ ᜈᜅ᜔ ᜋᜄᜒᜆᜒᜅ᜔᜵ ᜐ ᜋᜈ᜔ᜎᜓᜎᜓᜉᜒᜄ᜔᜵ ᜇᜒ ᜃ ᜉᜐᜒᜐᜒᜁᜎ᜔᜶ ᜐ ᜇᜄᜆ᜔ ᜀᜆ᜔ ᜊᜓᜈ᜔ᜇᜓᜃ᜔᜵ ᜐ ᜐᜒᜋᜓᜌ᜔ ᜀᜆ᜔ ᜐ ᜎᜅᜒᜆ᜔ ᜋᜓᜅ᜔ ᜊᜓᜄ᜔ᜑᜏ᜔᜵ ᜋᜌ᜔ ᜇᜒᜎᜄ᜔ ᜀᜅ᜔ ᜆᜓᜎ᜵ ᜀᜆ᜔ ᜀᜏᜒᜆ᜔ ᜐ ᜉᜄ᜔ᜎᜌᜅ᜔ ᜋᜒᜈᜋᜑᜎ᜔᜶ ᜀᜅ᜔ ᜃᜒᜐ᜔ᜎᜉ᜔ ᜈᜅ᜔ ᜏᜆᜏᜆ᜔ ᜋᜓᜌ᜔᜵ ᜆᜄᜓᜋ᜔ᜉᜌ᜔ ᜈ ᜈᜄ᜔ᜈᜒᜈᜒᜅ᜔ᜈᜒᜅ᜔᜵ ᜀᜅ᜔ ᜊᜒᜆᜓᜏᜒᜈ᜔ ᜀᜆ᜔ ᜀᜇᜏ᜔ ᜈᜒᜌ᜵ ᜃᜁᜎᜈ᜔ ᜉ ᜋᜌ᜔ ᜇᜒ ᜋᜄ᜔ᜇᜒᜇᜒᜎᜒᜋ᜔᜶ ᜎᜓᜉ ᜈᜅ᜔ ᜀᜇᜏ᜔᜵ ᜈᜅ᜔ ᜎᜓᜏᜎ᜔ᜑᜆᜒᜆ᜔ ᜉᜄ᜔ᜐᜒᜈ᜔ᜆ᜵ ᜊᜓᜑᜌ᜔ ᜀᜌ᜔ ᜎᜅᜒᜆ᜔ ᜐ ᜉᜒᜎᜒᜅ᜔ ᜋᜓ᜵ ᜀᜋᜒᜅ᜔ ᜎᜒᜄᜌ ᜈ ᜉᜄ᜔ ᜋᜌ᜔ ᜋᜅ᜔ᜀᜀᜉᜒ᜵ ᜀᜅ᜔ ᜋᜋᜆᜌ᜔ ᜈᜅ᜔ ᜇᜑᜒᜎ᜔ ᜐ ᜁᜌᜓ᜶</poem>|

### Original Spanish version

Penned by José Palma in 1899.
- Tierra adorada
- Hija del sol de Oriente,
- Su fuego ardiente
- En ti latiendo está.

- Patria de amores!
- Del heroísmo cuna,
- Los invasores
- No te hallarán jamás.

- En tu azul cielo, en tus auras,
- En tus montes y en tu mar
- Esplende y late el poema
- De tu amada libertad.

- Tu pabellón, que en las lides
- La victoria iluminó,
- No verá nunca apagados
- Sus estrellas y su sol.

- Tierra de dichas, del sol y amores,
- En tu regazo dulce es vivir.
- Es una gloria para tus hijos,
- Cuando te ofenden, por ti morir.

### Official Commonwealth English version

This version was translated in 1938 by Camilo Osías _et al._
- Land of the morning
- Child of the sun returning
- With fervor burning
- Sa iyong breast alive

- Land dear and holy
- Cradle of noble heroes
- Ne’er shall invaders
- Trample thy sacred shores.

- Ever within thy skies and through thy clouds
- And o’er thy hills and seas
- Do we behold the radiance feel the jownel
- Of glorious liberty.

- Thy banner dear to all our hearts
- Its sun and stars alight
- Oh, never shall its shining fields
- Be dimmed by tyrants 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.
