Kng siwang a pilatan da
ding Ilukanu’t Tagalug
Karin ating linto Dayi
a anti mong mipabukud,
Iting labwad biltanga’na
ning misnang lwalas a ilug
At durungdunga’ na nitang
matas at ulilang bunduk,
Iti ya ing pinili rang
karinan at gewang bulud
Ding supling ning Madyapahit:
KAPAMPANGAN ngara kabud.
Ing Imperyo Madyapahit
inyang bayu ya misalbag
Dakal no ring tribung meko
at menintun bayung labwad,
Kareti kabilang na la
ding king Sumatra menibat
Lalam nang pamanimuna
nitang Prinsipe Balagtas
King siwang a mesaglawe
karin la miras-sinaglad
At ding karelang tuknangan
ketang pampang do telakad.
Deti ilang meging mula
at bini rang penibatan
Ding taung paliping Datu
at supling ding Raha’t Lakan,
King uli ning sipagan da,
apalto re ing karinan
A kamalig ning pagkabye
at sibul na ning pibandyan,
Iting lugal a mesabi
at ding Karin manuknangan
Para-para lang meyaus
king taguring KAPAMPANGAN.
Deti atin lang sariling
katutubu rang salita
A kasing lambing ning dalit
ding Nayadas karing sapa,
Ding lalaki bayani la
king arena na ning digma
At ing legwan ding babai,
inspirasyun ding makudta,
Matwa’t anak mepande la
king pandaya’ ning ganaka
Mepasbu la king tetagan,
mimoldi king bye dakila.
