Our Mother Tounge   

IF truly a people dearly love
The tongue to them by Heaven sent,
They'll surely yearn for liberty
Like a bird above in the firmament.

BECAUSE by its language one can judge
A town, a barrio, and kingdom;
And like any other created thing
Every human being loves his freedom.

ONE who doesn't love his native tongue,
Is worse than putrid fish and beast;
AND like a truly precious thing
It therefore deserves to be cherished.

THE Tagalog language's akin to Latin,
To English, Spanish, angelical tongue;
For God who knows how to look after us
This language He bestowed us upon.

AS others, our language is the same
With alphabet and letters of its own,
It was lost because a storm did destroy
On the lake the bangka 1 in years bygone.


----->A poem originally in Tagalog written by Rizal when he was only eight years old

3 komento:

  1. Ang Makamisa ay isang nobelang tinangkang isulat at tapusin sa wikang Tagalog ni Dr. Jose Rizal. Ang kuwento ay umiinog sa bayan ng Tulig, at nagsimula sa isang eksena ng misa na ibinigay ni Pare Agaton sa mga mamamayang sakop niya. Kabilang sa mga tauhan ng nobela sina Capitan Lucas, Marcela, Capitan Tibo, Don Segundo, Teniente Tato, at Aleng Anday. Taliwas sa Noli Me Tangere at El Filibusterismo, ang Makamisa ay isinulat sa higit na nakakaaliw na paraan.
    yan ang maiksing buod ng makamisa :)
