Background

edit

Under the Bangsamoro Organic Law, the charter of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) which succeeded the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) is entitled to have its own regional hymn.[1] Prior to the ratification of the Bangsamoro Organic Law, Bangsamoro having its own regional hymn was contested. Christian right-wing Buhay Partylist Representative Lito Atienza said a separate "anthem" for the Bangsamoro region would not encourage national unity and if the song is similar to the hymns used by other local government units, he insisted that then proposed legislation explicitly states "hymn" rather "anthem".[2]

In February 2019, the Bangsamoro Transition Authority launched a competition for a new hymn for Bangsamoro, along with design competitions for a new flag and seal of the region.[3]

A proposed legislation to adopt an official regional hymn for Bangsamoro filed before the Bangsamoro Parliament is Parliament Bill No. 2 which is also known as "An Act Adopting the Official Hymn of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM)". By August 29, 2019, the measure is already on its second reading. Three versions of the hymn in English, Tagalog and Maguindanaon languages has been proposed as per parliament member Romeo Sema, a proponent of the measure. Sema's colleague's has suggested changes to the bill such as adding a designated portion of the hymn sang by a female for gender-inclusiveness and render additional versions of the hymn in every regional language of Bangsamoro.[4]

The Bangsamoro Parliament approved the proposed version of the Bangsamoro Hymn under Cabinet Bill no. 39 on January 30, 2020.[5] The proposed legislation is signed into law on February 13, 2020, by Chief Minister Murad Ebrahim as Bangsamoro Autonomy Act No. 7.[6]

I
Simula noon hanggang ngayon
Iisa ang naging layon
Magkaisa at magbuklod
Kagitingan ay marubdob

Tumayo tayo mula sa hamon ng nakaraan
Niyapos ang panganib na humahadlang
Pinangako sa puso at paniniwala
Ang ginhawang para sa kabataan

Chorus:
Bangsamoro'y tagumpay
Bunga ng pawis, dugo at buhay
Kapayapaan, Katarungan
Ay atin nang nakamtan

Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah
Pagpalain Bangsamoro

II
Bangsamoro, Bangsamoro
Lagi kang mamahalin
Walang pipigil sa damdamin
Mga pangako'y tutuparin

Habang buhay kami sayo'y magbabantay
Mananatili sa puso't isipan
Ang kahapong humimlay na nagbuwis ng buhay
Nasa piling na ng Maykapal

Chorus:
Bangsamoro'y tagumpay
Bunga ng pawis, dugo at buhay
Kapayapaan, Katarungan
Ay atin nang nakamtan

Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah
Pagpalain Bangsamoro

From then until now
The goal was one
To unite and to guild
Courage is ardent

Let us rise from the challenge of the past
Embrace the hindering danger
Promised in heart and belief
The comfort for the youth

Chorus:
Bangsamoro is triumph
Fruit of sweat, blood, and life
Peace, Justice
Is ours already earned

Praise be to Allah (God), Praise be to Allah (God)
Bless Bangsamoro

II
Bangsamoro, Bangsamoro
You will always be loved
No one will stop the feeling
Promises will be fulfilled

As long as we live we will watch over you
Remains in your heart and mind
The ones rested who had laid their lives
Are now with The Creator

Chorus:
Bangsamoro is triumph
Fruit of sweat, blood, and life
Peace, Justice
Is ours already earned

Praise be to Allah (God), Praise be to Allah (God)
Bless Bangsamoro

من ذلك الحين وحتى الآن
كان الهدف واحدًا
اتحدوا واتحدوا
الشجاعة شديدة

دعونا نرتفع من تحدي الماضي
انتهى خطر العرقلة
موعودة بالقلب والإيمان
راحة الشباب

كورال:
نجاح بانجسامورو
ثمار العرق والدم والحياة
السلام ، العدل
انها لنا بالفعل

الحمد لله والحمد لله
يبارك بانجسامورو

٢
بانجسامورو ، بانجسامورو
سوف تكون دائما محبوبا
لا يوجد شيء للسيطرة على العواطف
الوعود تبقي

ما دمنا نعيش سوف نراقبك
يبقى في قلبك وعقلك
هدأت الشهية
فرض الضرائب على الحياة


كورال:
نجاح بانجسامورو
ثمار العرق والدم والحياة
السلام ، العدل
انها لنا بالفعل

الحمد لله والحمد لله
يبارك بانجسامورو
