The Mark of a True <strong>Filipino</strong><br />
I was once asked by a foreigner<br />
To descri<strong>be</strong> my <strong>be</strong>loved country<br />
Hark, listen very carefully<br />
To my true and faithful description.<br />
If by chance I have seen<br />
Unfurled and flying, high above the air<br />
The most <strong>be</strong>autiful flag of red, white and blue<br />
Symbol of my country, we give honor.<br />
Once our national anthem is played<br />
And by chance I hear its music drifting in the wind<br />
Place your right hand over your breast<br />
While its lively music is <strong>be</strong>ing played.<br />
Our national costumes, Barong tagalog and “Baro at Saya”<br />
And our national flower, the Sampaguita<br />
Our folk songs, our national tree—Narra<br />
And the Philippine Eagle<br />
All these are our national symbols.
