Kita an Legazpi Ngonyan
Ini na istorya kan gikan ko
Maigos, maboot, matiyaga
Kitang nag-ugat sa poon kan Mayon
Legazpi orogon an gayon
Siyudad kan sakong puso
Burabod nin pagkamoot
Ngonyan buda an maabot
Sa aga, sa aga
Kita gabos an mabilog
Kita na may kusog-boot
Gabos kita'an Legazpi
Legazpi, Legazpi ngonyan!
Ranga kan sadiri an gawi, an ugali
Nasa pagpadaba pag-uswag ta gabos
Kita an banwaan na nagkaborogkos
Iyan an poon kan gabos
Siyudad kan sakong puso
Burabod nin pagkamoot
Ngonyan buda an maabot
Sa aga, sa aga
Kita gabos an mabilog
Kita na may kusog-boot
Gabos kita'an Legazpi
Legazpi, Legazpi ngonyan!
Here's an English translation of the hymn by Victor R. Buenconsejo.
We are the Legazpi Today
Behold the story of my dear land
Of hardworking people and of kind
We all who came forth at Mayon’s perfect slope
Legazpi, whose beauty’s standing proud.
The city that’s dear my heart
Unending love she is the fount
Today and for the future
The future, the future
We all will come unite as one
United with one spirit grand
Oh! We are the Legazpi, Legazpi, Legazpi today!
Our norms and our deeds, console ourselves so dearly
It is through our love we achieve prosperity
Oh! We are the people united as one
That’s where everything has begun
The city that’s dear my heart
Unending love she is the fount
Today and for the future
The future, the future
We all will come unite as one
United with one spirit grand
Oh! We are the Legazpi, Legazpi, Legazpi. . . . today!
