I was born in the Philippines and I still did not know all the languages and dialects. It is not like our national hero Dr. Jose Rizal he has tons of dialects learned. Anyway, i found this through Mr. Wiki the translation of our national proverb or "salawikain" in tagalog.

English - He who does not (know how to) look back at his past (where he came from) will not reach his destination.

Tagalog - Ang hindi marunong lumingon sa pinanggalingan ay hindi makararatíng sa paroroonan.

Bisaya/Cebuano - Kadtong dili molingi sa iyang gigikanan, dili makaabot sa iyang gipadulongan.

Bicolano (Bulan, Gubat, Irosin, Matnog, Sta Magdalena, Bulusan) - An diri maaram mag-imud sa pinaghalian, diri makaabot sa pakakadtu-an.

Ilokano (standard) - Ti saanna ammo a tumaliaw iti naggapuanna ket saan a makadanon iti papananna.

Hiligaynon ("Ilongo") - Kon sin-o ang indi makahibalo magbalikid sang iya ginta-uhan, indi makaabot sa iya padulungan.

Kinaray-a - Ang indi kamaan magbalikid sa ana ginhalinan, indi makaabot sa ana paaragtunan.

Manobo (Obo) - Iddos minuvu no konnod kotuig nod loingoy to id pomonan din, konna mandad od poko-uma riyon tod undiyonnan din.

Spanish - Quien no vira la cara a su orígen, no puede llegar a su destino.

Surigaonon - Adon dili mahibayo molingi sa ija ing-gikanan, dili gajod makaabot sa ija pasingdan.

Waray-Waray - An diri maaram lumingi ha tinikangan, diri maulpot ha kakadtoan.
