Pilipinas Kong Mahal (Template:Langx) is one of the most popular patriotic songs in the Philippines.[1] The song was composed by Filipino musician, Francisco Santiago and lyrics by Ildefonso Santos.[2] The original English text, Philippines, My Philippines, was written by Prescott Ford Jernegan. The tune was adapted from the former U.S. state anthem, Maryland, My Maryland, itself a set to the German Christmas carol, O Tannenbaum. Santiago revised the melody, and Santos translated the Jernegan text into Filipino.[3]
