Mariveles March /Hymn
I
Mariveles, Mariveles pinagpala ng Maykapal
Ang ganda at yaman, pag-asa ng bayan
May pang-akit at panghalina sa mga dayuhan
II
Mariveles, Mariveles tungo sa kaunlaran
Mariveles, Mariveles hanap-buhay ay sagana
Ang simoy ay sariwa, may samyo ng paglaya
May tanawin na pambihira, pang-aliw sa kalungkutan
Mariveles tanyag saan man my bagong lipunan
III
Kay sarap manirahan dito sa aming bayan
Mariveles ngayon at kailan man
Ay hindi malilimutan
IV
Mariveles, Mariveles pangarap ng karamihan
Binata at dalaga, mahirap at mayaman
Kahit malayo ang inyong bayan
Sa ibayong dagat man
Mariveles, Mariveles nais masilayan
(Repeat stanza III and IV.)
Mariveles, Marivels isigaw ng mabuhay!
Mabuhay!
