TO THE FLOWERS OF HEIDELBERG
INTERPRETATION
"Ah, flowers, you may fate though,
Conserving still, perhaps, your native hue;
Yet, far from Fatherland, heroic loam
To which you owe your life,
The perfume will be gone from you;
For aroma is your soul; it cannot roam
Beyond the skies which saw it born, nor e'er forget"
- He expressed his appreciation for nature's indescribable beauty and inevitable allure of fresh scent that starts from the sweet caress of dawn until sunrise.
- Rizal asked the flowers to imaginatively go to the Philippines and convey love for his country and loved ones.
