Bukidnon My Home, The Provincial Hymn

English Version Binukid (Talaandig Language) Version NOTE: NOT EXACT ENGLISH TO BINUKID TRANSLATION (The Ordinance-approved version is more a geographical description than the original English, hence various proposals for changes, see Bukidnon Online Site)

Wherever I may roam
The distant land to see
I long to go back soon
To sweet Bukidnon home
Where lovely mountains high
With forest old and grand
Bring memories to me
The home I long to see.

Chorus:
There my heart
Yearns to be
In far away Bukidnon land
Under its blue starry skies
Where love and joy never die
(repeat Chorus)

Bisan pa hindon ah
 Lalag ko'g uli ah,
 Deni ta Bukidnon
 Kanak ha banuwa
 Buntod ha matangkaw
 Kalasan, makupal
 Patag ha maluag
 Hatungkay madagway

Tanan:
 Buntoran, balalayan, basakan, kapatagan
 Pastohan, kapinyahan, ba alan-alan kauyagan
 Langit din pig-aldawan
 Piglambungan, uranan, ba alan-alan
 Kauyagan
 (Repeat)

Famous quotes containing the words provincial and/or hymn:

    “In sci-fi convention, life-forms that hadn’t developed space travel were mere prehistory—horse-shoe crabs of the cosmic scene—and something of the humiliation of being stuck on a provincial planet in a galactic backwater has stayed with me ever since.”
    —Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

    “The starting point of the human and the end,
    That in which space itself is contained, the gate
    To the enclosure, day, the things illumined
    By day, night and that which night illumines,
    Night and its midnight-minting fragrances,
    Night’s hymn of the rock, as in a vivid sleep.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
