From north to south, east to west
Diverse languages we speak best
Filipino, Cebuano,
Hiligaynon, Ilocano…
Different tongues serve as avenues
In meeting friends with brilliant views
Knowing culture vibrantly
Rooted in family deeply.
Filipino languages
Reflect identities
They connect to ancestry,
They pass down oral history.
“Bayanihan” spreads languages
As mirrors of who we are
Through various literary genres
That inspire people we care.
