LEGASCI Hymn

In her name, lies truth and majesty

In her hands, the sword of legacy

In our hearts, her dreams and victory

That holds Mayon's greatest beauty

Yes, she proclaimed our brighter days

With million smiles to go our ways

Yes, she raised us with truthful leadership

To build a race of better youth

Chorus:

It is Legazpi that brings pride to Albay

It is the home of us children

(For) The youth to survive

It is Legazpi City Science High School!

The home of our dreams till we reach our stars...

Now we stand blessed by her wisdom

As empowered, humane youth

In turn we honor all her days

As we live our lives with her thoughts

(Repeat Chorus)

We are Mighty Warriors!

We are sons of God

We uplift the name of our alma mater (2x)

(Repeat Chorus)

The home of our dreams till we reach

Till we reach (till we reach)

Our stars...
