Batangas, bukal ng kadakilaan
Ang pinakapuso ay Bulkang Taal
Kaygandang malasin, payapa’t marangal
Ngunit nagngangalit kapag nilapastangan

Batangas, hiyas sa katagalugan
May barong tagalog at bayaning tunay
Mabini, Laurel, Recto, Diokno, Kalaw
Agoncillo, Malvar sa bayan ay dangal.

Batangas, mutya sa dulong silangan
Bantayog ng sipag at kagandahan
Sulo sa dambana nitong Inang Bayan
Batangas, Batangas, ngayon at kailanman

Batangas, bukal ng kadakilaan
Ang pinakapuso ay Bulkang Taal
Kaygandang malasin, payapa’t marangal
Ngunit nagngangalit kapag nilapastangan
Batangas, hiyas sa katagalugan

May barong tagalog at bayaning tunay
Mabini, Laurel, Recto, Diokno, Kalaw
Agoncillo, Malvar sa bayan ay dangal.

Batangas kong mahal, ngayon at kailanman!
