cagayan
the gold is in your heart
in the grace of the ones
that people your heights
it is in the greenfields
and your mountainfields
deep in the valleys
and verdant countrysides..
cagayan de oro
you defy skeptics
with your charm and warmth
you are as you have been
for decades past
majestic and serence
despite many changes
challenging your might...
de oro
in golden splendour
you write your glorious past
your friendships are ardent
your heart is open wide
with the eager handshakes
of beaming faces
and their welcoming smiles..
