Bicol University Hymn

Music and Lyrics by Bobbie A. Garcia

This is a school we wish to sing of

A school to honor and revere

A temple built by men of firmness

A mould for youth who walk with pride

For thee we’ll always be united

Although we tread on distant lands

We all shall cherish what you’ve taught us

That you whole heartedly gave forth

Refrain:

Bicol University, burning torch of wisdom

Fount of courage, hope and love

Seat of truth and light.
