When this song was originally requested to me, the YouTube user in question wanted a full concert band arrangement. While I will do that, I wanted to familiarize myself with the song first, which is why I made this transcription for B-flat trumpet (playing the original vocal melody) and piano accompaniment. Either way, this is Awit sa Paglikha ng Bagong Pilipinas (English: Hymn to the Creation of a New Philippines), also known by its incipit Tindig! Aking Inang Bayan (English: "Stand! My Motherland").

This is a patriotic song written by Filipino composer Felipe Padilla de León. It was commissioned during the Japanese occupation of the Philippines and intended to supplant Lupang Hinirang (then sung to its English translation as the Philippine Hymn) as the national anthem. It was also sung by the members of the Hukbo ng Bayan Laban sa Hapon, however, the words bear sentiments against the Japanese occupiers and the desire for national liberation.

The song was also appropriated by the communist New People's Army with the title Tindig Uring Anakpawis (Tagalog: "Arise, Working Class").

IMPORTANT! This was done strictly for music preservation, however. I do not support any WW2-era ideologies in any way, shape, or form.
