One rainy day we reached Sagada,

Heigh ho! Among the rice fields!

One rainy day we reached Sagada,

Ha! Ha! As we toiled along o’er the hills of Bontoc!

A place most sweet with fragrant mint-beds,

Heigh ho! How did it get there?

A place most sweet with fragrant mint-beds,

Ha! Ha! ‘Way high up in the hills of Bontoc!
