A GIFT
A hundred and twenty years ago
In our beloved Iloilo
Missionaries of faith and virtue
Came with Augustinian zeal so true
Emboldened by their passion to teach
The minds of the youth they tried to enrich
A beacon of sublime education
Forging on for all the generation
Chorus:
Blessed may you be forever
University of San Agustin so dear
With a million voices singing your praises
Ever glorious and full of God’s graces
With hearts always aflame
We will together shout your fame
Unitas, Caritas, Veritas our aim
San Agustin magnificent is your name
Our vibrant and loving community
Always united in all adversity
Continuing St. Augustine’s legacy
In Iloilo’s history we’ll stay
