Ode to Filipinos

You are a race, So one of a kind! Uniquely seen in any place. A race with glee In humanity. Finds peace in God, And happiness In calamity. A race so kind, It's culture shines. A mark of pride, yet Nor black or white. Short and brown, They may be. But remarkably Is their capability. Your work shows A native gold, Where heart's in place In any phase. And when they stand Or work their hand, Their dignity remarkably can't hide, Definitely, A Pinoy Pride!
