Original lyrics
Bantayog/Mahiwagang Tao
Tignan mo, sa kabilang ibayo
May tao, kumakaway sa 'Ayo
Siya' may hawak na di alam kung ano
May gustong ipahiwatig sa damdamin mo
(REF)
Sabay sa ulos ang kanyang alituntunin
Pati sa agos ng ilog sa bukirin
Sing-talim ng kidlat ang kanyang mga tingin
Sing-lakas ng kulog ang sigaw
ng damdamin....
(Interlude)
Tummigil ka sa paghakbang,
at siya'y pagmmasdan
ng kmanyang mga kamay,
na sing-tigas ng tigang
Siya'y sumisigaw ng kung anong adhikain
Ano nga ba kaya ang kanyang layunin
(REF)
(Long Interlude)
(REF)
(Short Interlude)
Mahiwagang bayan,
mahiwagang tao
Ang maskaray hubarin mo,
ipakita mo ang totoo
Ituro mo ang kanluran,
ituro mo ang katimugan
Ituro mo ang silangan,
ituro mo ang katarungan
Itinuro mo ay kalokohan,
itinuro mo ay kasakiman
Itinuro mo'y kasinungalingan,
bayan anong hahantungan?
Mahiwagang bayan,
mahiwagang tao,
ang maskaray hubarin mo
Ikaw ay Pilipino,
Pilipinong totoo.

Translation
Monument/Mysterious Person
Look over yonder
There's a person waving
Holding something unknown
Wants to convey to your feelings
(REF)
Follow the order to plunge
Even the river flow in the hills
Sharp as lightning in his/her eyes
Loud as the thunder in his/her shout
of his feelings
(Interlude)
Stop walking
and look at him/her
His/her hands
hard as drought
Shouting to whatever ambition
What is his/her aim
(REF)
(Long Interlude)
(REF)
(Short Interlude)
Mysterious country
Mysterious person
Remove your mask*
Show the truth
Point to the west
Point to the south
Point to the north
Show me justice
Show me madness
Show me greediness
You showed me lies
Where is the country heading
Mysterious country
Mysterious person
Remove your mask*
You are Pilipino/Filipino
True Pilipino/Filipino

The 3rd line on the 4th verse ("basday") is actually "maskaray".
Same with 5th verse on the 7th line should say "maskaray" not "basara'y".
