[Verse 1]
Em G
In the heart of the mountains,
C G
Gold gently shines;
Am Em
Not in coins or crowns
G B7
But in rice that defines.
Em G
There's a legacy carved
C G
By the hands of time
Am Em
Oh, Banaue's steps
G B7
Majestic and sublime.
[CHORUS]
Em G D
Oh Ifugao, you're a living art
Am
divine
C D
Cradle of culture, spirit,
G
and sign.
D G D
In your hands, golden grains
Am
grow true
C
And your women hold grace
Am [ Em ]
The world never knew

Em G
As the morning wakes
C G
With the breath of trees
Am Em
There's a lullaby
G B7
Whispering in the breeze.
Em G
Stone and wood tells a tale
C G
Of warriors brave
Am Em B7
And a heart that never fails.
[CHORUS]

Every table served,

each grain of rice

Is a story, a labor of love.

In every woman—mother, maiden,

or child

Is the fire of the mountains
Em B7
Fierce and wild.
[CHORUS 2]

Oh Ifugao,

you're the jewel of the land
