Lupang Hinirang (The Philippine National Anthem)
Bayang magiliw, perlas ng Silanganan,
Alab ng puso, sa dibdib mo’y buhay.
Lupang hinirang, duyan ka ng magiting
Sa manlulupig, ‘di ka pasisiil.
Sa dagat at bundok, sa simoy at sa langit mong bughaw,
May dilag ang tula at awit sa paglayang minamahal
Ang kislap ng watawat mo’y tagumpay na nagniningning,
Ang bituin at araw niya’y kailan pa ma’y di magdidilim.
Lupa ng araw, ng luwalhati’t pagsinta,
Buhay ay langit sa piling mo;
Aming ligaya, na ‘pag may mang-aapi,
Ang mamatay ng dahil sa iyo.

Where can I secure a copy of the document adopting March National Filipina as the National Anthem. I tried searching but as of today, I still can’t find such document. It’s not even mentioned in the Declaration of Independence read on June 12, 1898. Thank you.
