Music: V. Rubi
Lyrics: Levi Celerio
This memorable song was written by Mr. Levi Celerio, National Artist for Literature and Music. It was originally entitled Maligayang Pasko at Manigong Bagong Taon. It became the favorite of Filipino carolers who would end the song with, “Thank you, thank you ang babait ninyo, thank you!”
Ang Pasko ay sumapit
Tayo ay mangagsiawit
Ng magagandang himig
Dahil sa Diyos ay pag-ibig
Nang si Kristo'y isilang
May tatlong haring nagsidalaw
At ang bawa't isa ay nagsipaghandog
Ng tanging alay
Koro:
Bagong Taon ay magbagong-buhay
Nang Lumigaya ang ating bayan
Tayo'y magsikap upang makamtan
Natin ang kasaganaan
Tayo'y mangagsiawit
Habang ang mundo'y tahimik
Ang araw ay sumapit
Ng sanggol na dulot ng langit
Tayo ay magmahalan
Ating sundin ang gintong aral
At magbuhat ngayon
Kahit hindi Pasko ay magbigayan.
