Brief history

The Three Stars and a Sun (Filipino: Tatlong Bituin at isang Araw; Spanish: Tres Estrellas y un Sol) are popular patriotic symbols of the Philippines.


The three stars represent the three major island groups of the Philippines: Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao and an eight-rayed golden sun symbolizing unity, freedom, people's democracy, and sovereignty.


Each ray represents one of the first eight provinces that started the 1896 Philippine Revolution against Spain. Ambrosio Rianzares Bautista, who wrote the Philippine Declaration of Independence and who read it on the occasion of its proclamation on June 12, 1898, listed the eight provinces as Manila, Cavite, Bulacan, Pampanga, Nueva Ecija, Tarlac, Laguna, and Batangas.


The pledge of allegiance to the Philippine flag

Filipino

   Ako ay Pilipino
   Buong katapatang nanunumpa
   Sa watawat ng Pilipinas
   At sa bansang kanyang sinasagisag
   Na may dangal, katarungan at kalayaan
   Na pinakikilos ng sambayanang
   Maka-Diyos
   Maka-tao
   Makakalikasan at
   Makabansa


English translation

   I am a Filipino
   I pledge my allegiance
   To the flag of the Philippines
   And to the country it represents
   With honor, justice and freedom
   Put in motion by one nation
   For God
   for Nature
   for the People and
   for the Country
