Clarito G. de Francia expanded his writings by composing songs in English, when he immigrated to the U.S. His first work "Fil-Am Song" deals with the pursuit of Filipino-Americans' struggles in the green fields and their triumphs in great cities. This is followed by "Loyalty for Our Country and Humanity," a tribute to America as a sanctuary of migrants. President Barack Obama reacted to this work: "...We should be proud of what we have accomplished together...It’s the optimism and hard work of people like you that have changed our country for the better..." After that, come "Today is Your Special" a birthday greetings; "Home Sweet Home" an upliftment of family togetherness; "Celebrate a Recommitment" an anniversary song; "Live and Share Christ to the World" for evangelization, etc. These pieces show De Francia's way of encouraging his fellow Filipinos to impart their heritage, culture and traditions to the world. As a bridge for this idea, he has been sponsoring a short story writing contest in English, the DEfrancia Awards for Literature(DEAL), since 2017.
