Liberty
The following poem commemorates the independence of every country and men especially from conquerors such as Philippines, my homeland, during the old period.
All the wars in every age
were broken with a spoken rage—
"Liberty!"
Children and old with great desire
sang with hearts, with glee, as choir—
"Liberty!"
My homeland, with a void of right,
raised his men for Freedom's fight—
"Liberty!"
Chains 'neath our feet released
as if caught birds just flew with ease—
"Liberty!"
Dying men barely rose upon
although drop of blood was gone—
"Liberty!"
Shouts were heard in every phase
heroic voices of sires did raise—
"Liberty!"
People in unsanitary work
took the hours of day to shirk—
"Liberty!"
From the farthest islet shore
Where I heard their cries and roar—
"Liberty!"
I heard it from the top of the clouds
I heard it and shall hear it clear and loud—
"Liberty!"
