Sulu Hymn

SULU HYMN
Composer: Dr. Ibrahim Quiling Bahjin
Lyricist: Hja. Ayesha Quiling Bahjin
Daying ha satan dagat kablangan
Yan in Lupah sug tarsanyang
Hula' amu in kiyabulatan
Dimihil kasanyangan
Her bounty skies and lovely peak
Elate her wondrous name
Her bounty seas and river flows
Roar out her might and fame
Jambangan hipu' sin kissa
Bantug pa katan bangsa
Lingkat natagak di' na hikaupama
Ubat uhaw sin jantung ta
A land that is so pure and brave
Where heroes and martyr sprung
To shed their blood in her defense
From tyrant evil fangs
Dugu' niyawa ta hitukbal
Pa Lupah Sug hula' kakkal
Haggut pasu in baran sumandal
Pamaugbug sabunnal
Ha palangay iban piil
Kabantugan dimihil
Ha laum jantung nakaukkil
Lasa kaymu Lupah Sug adil
Uh Lupah Sug hula' kakkal
Ngan mu landu' matampal
Pusaka' daying sin awal
Kamaasan timukbal
Hikapagbantug pa katan bangsa
Ngan mu landu' masawa
Uttara, satan, subangan, sadlupan
Tausug wayi halinan
Ohh, Fair Sulu our native land
Remembered by thy name
As an eternal heritage
Our fathers did proclaim
Proud sons our we to face the world
Our emblem is thy name
North, south, east, west
We may wander
As suluans we will remain
Uttara, satan, subangan, sadlupan
Tau Sug wayi halinan
