 | | From Mactan to Kawit, the Lapu-Lapus and Dagohoys, the Diego Silangs and Bonifacios of our nation had risen to fight injustice and shed blood for freedom. |
 | | When, in Kawit, the Filipino flag – with three stars representing Luzon, the Visayas, and Mindanao – was raised and the Philippine national anthem was played, our people rejoiced, for they were one in liberty and destiny. |
 | | But as our people in Kawit resolved to continue struggling, in order to keep whole and firm the fabric of Philippine society, so must we today continue their struggle. |
