Sing along to 'It’s More Fun in the Philippines' jingle

The Department of Tourism (DOT) on Thursday released the official local jingle for its new “It’s More Fun in the Philippines” campaign.   The new jingle, whose composer was not revealed, was uploaded on the agency’s YouTube channel.   The song describes Filipinos as “lahi ng masasaya” (race of happy people) and “mababaw ang ligaya” (easy to please). It also encourages Filipinos to explore the Philippines, which the song likened to paradise.   Below is the full lyrics of the “It’s More Fun In The Philippines” domestic jingle:   Kating kati na ba ang iyong mga paa? Handa nang umalis, magliwaliw at lumarga? Buti na lang taga-dito ka ‘Sing dami ng happenings Ang dami ng isla   It’s more fun in the Philippines Bakit pa lalayo? Sobrang swerte kaya ng tsinelas mo Nakatapak ka sa paraiso   It’s more fun in the Philippines Bakit pa lalayo? Mula Batanes hanggang Jolo Iba ang saya ng Pilipino It’s more fun in the Philippines   Nandito nang lahat Saan pa pupunta? Malalim ang dagat at mababaw ang ligaya Halatang-halata na Pilipino ka Abot-langit ang iyong ngiti Lahi ng masasaya   It’s more fun in the Philippines Bakit pa lalayo? Sobrang swerte kaya ng tsinelas mo Nakatapak ka sa paraiso   It’s more fun in the Philippines Bakit pa lalayo? Mula Batanes hanggang Jolo Iba ang saya ng Pilipino It’s more fun in the Philippines   ‘Sing dami ng happenings Ang dami ng mga isla   It’s more fun in the Philippines Bakit pa lalayo? Sobrang swerte kaya ng tsinelas mo Nakatapak ka sa paraiso   It’s more fun in the Philippines Bakit pa lalayo?
