Makasaysayang Mayo Bente Nuwebe

Bente nuwebe, sa Batangenyo'y kilalang balisong

ang may tangan nito sa laban ay di umuurong

Mayo Bente Nuwebe, araw ng maraming pagsulong

o sa kasaysayan nga'y marami rin ang pag-urong

bumagsak sa kamay ng Turko ang Constantinople

makasaysayan ang talumpati ni Patrick Henry

tulong sa pagtayo ng ospital ng Union Army

nang mapatunayan ang Theory of Relativity

araw na patunay ng lakas ng kababaihan

Sojourner Truth at Dorothea Dix yaong pangalan

na mas inisip ang kapakanan ng karamihan;

si Abraham Lincoln, may sinabing makasaysayan

tinatag ni Charles de Gaulle ang pamahalaang French 

naging pangulo ng Russian Republic, Boris Yeltsin

pasinayang araw ng United Nations Peacekeepers

sinimulan sa Hong Kong ang grupong Scholarism

tinayo ang replika ng Statue of Liberty

sa Tsina't tinawag itong Goddess of Democracy

ang Tiananmen Square ay napuno ng estudyante

batid na sa kasaysayan ang sunod na nangyari

sa kalusugan nga'y ngayon ang World Digestive Health Day

sa Indonesia naman ay National Elderly Day

sa Inglatera nga'y kinikilalang Oak Apple Day

makasaysayang araw para sa mga may birthday
