Ang Mahiwagang Hagdan ng Metro,
Isa sa paboritong tambayan ng tao.
Kung saan nagbibigayan ng Panalo,
or iyakan ng mga talo

Ngayon MSE 2023,
Pwede siya maging susi,
Basta mag-antay ka lang ng mabuti
baka makuha mo ang iyong minimithi.

Isang pag-asa na pwede ka Manalo,
at baka makuha mo ang tropehiyo,
Ang pag-asang mabago ang Buhay mo,
At mga Makamtam ibang pangrap mo.

Ano pa ang iyong inaantay?
Tumayo at maglakbay!
Lumaban at huwag kang sasablay!
Patungo sa MSE 2023 upang makuha ang tagumpay!
