Ode To Christ The King College Poem by Edgar Eslit

Oh Christ the King College, a Franciscan gem
In Calbayog City, a shining diadem
The oldest school in the region, proud and strong
A beacon of learning, that's been around for so long

From your Franciscan roots, springs a spirit of service
A calling to help, that's worth to preserve
A faith that inspires, a love that endures
A community of kindness, that's worth to observe

Your campus, a reflection of history and progress
From the old structures, to the modern ones that impress
A heritage site, that's worth to explore
A modern facility, that's worth to adore

In your classrooms, a legacy of excellence
From the best teachers, who teach with reverence
A curriculum that's holistic, and truly inspiring
A foundation of values, that's worth admiring

Your laboratories, a hub of innovation and discovery
From the state-of-the-art equipment, to the experiments so worthy
A center of excellence, that's worth the recognition
A driving force of progress, that's worth the mission

Your culture, so rich and diverse
A celebration of traditions, that's worth to immerse
A reflection of heritage, that's worth to preserve
A symbol of unity, that's worth to deserve

Your Waray-waray language, a source of pride
A language that's spoken, from deep inside
A heritage that's worth to embrace
A cultural treasure, that's worth to grace

Your arts and music, a canvas of creativity and expression
From the paintings that inspire, to the plays that captivate attention
A symphony of melodies, that's worth to listen
A showcase of talents, that's worth to enliven

Oh Christ the King College, you're an invitation
To a journey of learning, a life-long exploration
A community of scholars, that's worth to join
A legacy of excellence, that's worth to shine!
