Children in Urban Manila: The Stories of Reynold and JB

10-year-old Reynold gets up, goes to work, and provides for his family. Every afternoon, he goes to the local market in Manila, Philippines to scrounge around for leftover stock of vegetables; then resells them to turn a profit. See how Reynold's life compares to JB, the son of a migrant worker, who gets to go to school.

Phillipines : National Anthem

Chosen Land

Official Commonwealth-era English version:
The Philippine Hymn (1938)

Land of the morning,
Child of the sun returning,
With fervor burning,
Thee do our souls adore.

Land dear and holy,
Cradle of noble heroes,
Never shall invaders
Trample thy sacred shore.

Ever within thy skies and through thy clouds
And over thy hills and sea,
Do we behold the radiance, feel the throb,
Of glorious liberty.

Thy banner, dear to all our hearts,
Its sun and stars alight,
O never shall its shining field
Be dimmed by tyrant's might!

Beautiful land of love, o land of light,
In thine embrace 'tis rapture to lie,
But it is glory ever, when thou art wronged,
For us, thy sons to suffer and die.
