Maria Reyna ng Rosaryo

Maria Birheng Reyna ng Rosaryo,
Hiwaga ng Diyos, kami ay dinggin mo.
Itong Salinas, tingnan at utusan ang bawat nilalang.
Awit ng gloria, dangal, oh Salinas,
Lagi mong awitan ang Ina ni Jesus,
Na aming Reyna, sa kanya na tunay na nagmamahal.

Mary Queen of the Rosary

Mary Virgin Queen of the Rosary,
Mystery of God, hear us all.
This Salinas, look and command each of one of us.
Hymn of glory, honor, oh Salinas,
Always sing to the Mother of Jesus our Queen, in her whom we are truly loved.

'Fiesta Hymn written and composed by Rev Fr. Francis Barcelo, Asst. Parish Priest Emeritus'

O, Maria, aming Ina
Patrona ng aming bayan
Aming patnubay, aming sandigan
Sa lahat ng panahon
Ang iyong kadalisayan
Ang huwaran ng aming buhay
O, Maria aming Reyna, di ka namin iwawalay
O, Maria ng Salinas, buhay namin sayo kailanman
