Thy lofty mountain ranges
Secure thy fertile plains
The people in thy dwellings
Extol thy golden grains

May Pulangi River ever flow
May abundance in thy rich soil grow
May thy verdant fields sustain
The Mortals of thy land

Thy unwave’ring hope
Enduring through the night
Breaking a new dawn
Rising strong with time

Thriving and progressing
Booming never ceasing
Onward go, Valencia City!
Joyful, valiant, free!

Thy culture shall be safeguarded
Nature’s wealth, protected
People’s faiths, respected
And thy liberty, defended

Deep passion, allegiance and honor
We pledge unto thee
Our City of Golden Harvest
Arise, thou art our pride!

May the God of love
Enfold Valencia City
Now and Eternally!
