Creed and crud
"Remember our school hymn? Can't get UP Naming Mahal into words." Wife.
UP Naming Mahal, da da da daaa da daa. I used to stop even at the middle of Beta Way when I hear it. Can you recite Panatang Makabayan? Me.
Wife stands up. Panatang makabayan. Iniibig ko ang Pilipinas. Ito ang aking lupang sinilangan. Ito ang tahanan ng aking lahi. Ako'y kanyang kinukupkop at...at...?
Me: nililiyag? binabayag? Google help us.
How about Ako ay Pilipino?

Would GMA and her kind know it? Dream sequence: Thunderbolt and lightning at the Batasan. Apostles' Creed scenarios likewise. Great Deluge follows, leaving an empty House. End sequence.
At least we don't know the Star-Spangled Banner either and wouldn't care. Fair enough.

Let's see if I still remember it right: Panatang makabayan. Iniibig ko ang Pilipinas. Ito ang aking lupang sinilangan. Ito ang tahanan ng aking lahi. Ako’y kanyang kinukupkop at tinutulungan upang maging malakas, maligaya at kapakipakinabang. Bilang ganti ay diringgin ko ang payo ng aking mga magulang. Susundin ko ang mga tuntunin ng aking paaralan. Tutuparin ko ang mga tungkulin bilang isang mamamayang makabayan, sa isip, sa salita at sa gawa.
