BAYAN KO by Jose Corazon de Jesus

Penned down by Jose Corazon de Jesus in 1929, Ang Bayan Ko (My Country) became widely famous among Filipinos during the reign of the late dictator Pres. Ferdinand Marcos in the 1980s. Bayan Ko was set to music by Constancio de Guzman.



Ang bayan kong Pilipinas
Lupain ng ginto't bulaklak
Pag-ibig na sa kanyang palad
Nag-alay ng ganda't dilag.

At sa kanyang yumi at ganda
Dayuhan ay nahalina
Bayan ko, binihag ka
Nasadlak sa dusa.

Ibon mang may layang lumipad
kulungin mo at umiiyak
Bayan pa kayang sakdal dilag
Ang di magnasang makaalpas!

Pilipinas kong minumutya
Pugad ng luha ko't dalita
Aking adhika,
Makita kang sakdal laya.
