Rosas ng digma (Rose of war)

Sumibol sa isang panahong marahas
Bawat pagsubok ay iyong hinarap
At hangga’t laya’y di pa nakakamtan
Buhay mo’y aking laan

(Blossoming in a period of strife,
You faced all challenges
And so long as freedom has not been achieved
I offer you my life)

Namumukadkad at puno ng sigla
Tulad mo’y rosas sa hardin ng digma
At di maiwasan sa iyo ay humanga
Ang tulad kong mandirigma

(Blooming and full of life,
You are like a rose in the garden of war
And a warrior like me
Could not help but admire you)

Ako’y nangangarap na ika’y makasama
Taglay ang pangakong iingatan kita
Ang gandang mong nahubog sa piling ng masa
Hinding-hindi kukupas, di malalanta

(I dream of being with you
Promising to cherish you
Your beauty that grew in the midst of the people
Will never fade, will never dry up)

Ang kulay mong angkin, singtingkad ng dugo
Nagbibigay-buhay sa bawat puso
Tinik mo’y sagisag ng tapang at giting
Sa laranga’y kislap ng bituin

(Your color is as bright as blood
That brings life to every heart
Your thorns symbolize courage and valour
In battle, you are the shining star)

Ako’y nangangarap na ika’y makasama
Taglay ang pangakong iingatan kita
Ang gandang mong nahubog sa piling ng masa
Hinding-hindi kukupas, di malalanta

(I dream of being with you
Promising to cherish you
Your beauty that grew in the midst of the people
Will never fade, will never dry up)

Ako’y nangangarap na ika’y makasama
Taglay ang pangakong iingatan kita
Ang gandang mong nahubog sa piling ng masa
Hinding-hindi kukupas, di malalanta

(I dream of being with you
Promising to cherish you
Your beauty that grew in the midst of the people
Will never fade, will never dry up)

Gaya ng pag-ibig na alay ko, sinta

(Like the love I offer you, my dear)
