Lyrics

On March 16, 1521
 When Philippines was discovered by Magellan
 They were sailing day and night, across the big ocean
 Until they saw a small Limasawa island
 Magellan landed in Limasawa at noon
 The people met him very welcome on the shore
 They did not understand the speaking they have done
 Because Kastila gid at Waray-Waray man
 When Magellan landed in Cebu City
 Rajah Humabon met him, they were very happy
 All people were baptized and built the church of Christ
 And that's the beginning of our Catholic life
 When Magellan visited in Mactan
 To Christianize them everyone
 But Lapulapu met him on the shore
 And drive Magellan to go back home
 Then Magellan got so mad
 Ordered his men to camouflage
 "Mactan island, we could not grab
 'Cause Lapulapu is very hard"
 Then the battle began at dawn
 Bolos and spears versus guns and cannons
 When Magellan was hit on his neck
 He stumbled down and cried and cried
 Oh, mother, mother, I am sick
 Call the doctor very quick
 Doctor, doctor, shall I die?
 Tell my mama, "Do not cry"
 Tell my mama, "Do not cry"
 Tell my mama, "Do not cry"
 That's the end of Magellan in the island of Mactan
 Long time ago, ladies and gentlemen
