Praise and grace makes me love Japan
Seeing the streets are so clean
No trash and trash cans anywhere
And no one eats while walking
Totally different culture to Manila
No discriminate picture of choices
Temples and festivals a yearly to behold
The cherry blossom tree is my favorite
That capture my unforgettable smell
Special soup, teriaki, shusi and sashimi
Non stopping, alluring, watering my mouth
Plus the influx of modern science and technology
Made this country number one in many ways
How made this archipelagic country get its name
Really mesmerizes me so much and bewildered me
This is a nation truly you lack adjectives to say.

Pearl of the Orient,
the archipelagic goddess of the Sea,
beautiful as the Magindara,
who's siren song calls to me,
her soul is as rich and sweet,
as the chocolate hills of her bosom,
terraces act as stairways to her heart,
where she bleeds of Red Jasper,
her eyes are lustrous and alluring,
glowing like star lanterns and fireflies,
the North Star and Southern Cross,
to my astronavigation of clinquant skies,
she is kissed by the Sun and caressed by the Moon,
forever cradled in an oceanic embrace,
esteemed by the Earth,
and as pure as the Sampaguita.
she is a pendant worn around the neck of our celestial body,
resting nearest to the heart,
its most precious gem,
Pearl of the Orient.
