  14. “They Ask Me Favor For Verses.” In 1882, shortly after his arrival in Madrid, Rizal joined the Circulo Hispano- Filipino, a society of Spaniards and Filipinos. “Me Piden Versos”; he pesonally declaimed during the New Year’s Eve reception of the Madrid Filipinos held in the evening of December 31, 1882.

  15. THEY ASK ME FOR VERSESThey ask me to play on a lyreThat long has been still and decayed,But never a note have I played,Nor can I the Muse re-inspire.She chats without reason or fireUntil she has tortured my brain.She chuckles to jeer at my pain;She has mocked me the while I lamented.In my soul, lonely, sad, and tormented,Neither pleasure nor sorrow remain. There once was a time, it is true--A time that, alas, has departed.When friends who were generous-hearted,Applauded the verse I could do.Of those happy days but a fewObscured recollections yet stay,As after some high holiday,Still linger mysterious sounds;Or, after the concert resounds,The after tones whisper away.

  16. While yet I was merely a childI knew how to smile at your sun,And inside my breast had begun,Like volcanic fires to burn wild, The desire that the verses compliedBy a poet's keen vigorous mind,Might cry to the swift moving wind;"Speed away, and sing to proclaimTo the furthermost zones, of Her fame.In earth and in heaven enshrined!" For I am a plant immature,Torn out of the Orient whereThe perfumes sleep on the airAnd life is a dream to allure.Ah, memories ever endure,My Country, of songs taught to meBy warbling birds from the tree,The waterfall's silvery roar,And out on the far-reaching shore,The moan of the sounding sea.

  17. I left Her, my Motherland home,A tree stripped of leaves and turned dry.Now gone are the carols that IOnce sang, e'er I started to roamAnd churned the vast ocean's white foam,To escape from my dread destiny:Too foolish as yet to foreseeThat instead of the good which I sought,I should plow from the ocean waves naughtBut a specter of death haunting me.  For all of my dream laden hours,Love, eagerness, castles in air,Beneath the blue skies I left thereIn that faraway region of flowers.Ah, do not appeal to my powersTo sing about love, for, like lead,My heart is weighed down, and in dreadI roam through this waste without peace;The pangs in my soul never cease,And all inspiration is dead.
