[edit] Chamorro lyrics

Fanohge Chamorro pot i tano'-ta
Kanta i matunå-ña gi todu i lugåt
Para i onra, para i gloria
Abiba i isla sin paråt.
Para i onra, para i gloria
Abiba i isla sin paråt.
Todu i tiempo i pås para hita
Yan ginen i langet na bendision
Kontra i piligru na'fansåfo' ham
Yu'os prutehi i islan Guåm
Kontra i piligru na'fansåfo' ham
Yu'os prutehi i islan Guåm

[edit] English lyrics

Stand ye Guamanians for your country
And sing her praise from shore to shore
For her honor, for her glory
Exalt our island forever more.
For her honor, for her glory
Exalt our island forever more.
May everlasting peace reign o'er us
May heaven's blessing to us come
Against all perils, do not forsake us
God protect our isle of Guam.
Against all perils, do not forsake us
God protect our isle of Guam.
