Tune: Paru-parong Bukid

I. Batang Pilipino, may mga tungkulin,

Ito’y dapat sundin at huwag abusuhin,

Malaki, maliit, mayaman at dukha

Tayo’y pantay-pantay,

Di dapat itatwa.

*Batang Pilipino.oy!

May mga tungkulin, oy!

Dapat ay igalang karapatang taglay.

II. Tayo ay magsaya

At magtulungan

Para ating buhay

Ay maging matiwasay.

Notes have their own parts

Head, stem and hook.
