Zamboanga National High School West Hymn
I
In Zamboanga City there's a school in
the west
That stands proudly along by the sea
Where the breezes blow to make us
feel fresh you know
And the pure air comes in abundantly
II
In the year 86 that was June 30
When we did come to occupy its hall to
mark
Its foundation day with less a thousand
then
Who had eagerly move its stone till dark
III
Zamboanga West City high school, hail!
We gloryfy with love and care
Come and join today the gallant way
IV
We the westerners we are happy to
have
A good school like this one by the sea
We shall then join hands and hearts to
keep the torch
Of this beautiful school by the sea
(Repeat III & IV)
