"MARTSA SURIGAO"


Surigao mapagarbohon
Surigao lupa na masaaron
Tinagaan ni Bathala
Nan grasya kay pinayangga

Kabukiran ug kadagatan
Kakahujan sanan kasubaan
Inin tanan ato tagngayanan
Taghatag na wayay kinutuban

Matam-is matinud-anon
Gugma nan Surigaonon
Surigao ikaw gajod an mutja
Bandera mo tinahod ug kilaya na

Refrain:

Ugsa kita angay na maglipay
Pagbati ta kahayahay
Probinsya ta pagkalinaw
Bisan diin wayay makalabaw
Pahimuslan sanan ignajan
Para sa atong kaliwatan
Sa imo kami makig-angay
Mag-iban ta sa kaguol ug kalipay.

Repeat refrain


Mag-iban ta sa kaguol ug kalipay.

Composed by: Romeo N. Cagas
Lyrics by: Ellen A. Amores
