Answer 7

Not yet, Rizal, not yet. Sleep not in peace:

There are a thousand waters to be spanned;

there are a thousand mountains to be crossed;

there are a thousand crosses to be borne.

Our shoulders are not strong; our sinews are

grown flaccid with dependence, smug with ease

under another's wing. Rest not in peace;

Not yet, Rizal, not yet. The land has need

of young blood-and, what younger than your own,

Forever spilled in the great name of freedom,

Forever oblate on the altar of

the free? Not you alone, Rizal. O souls

And spirits of the martyred brave, arise!

Arise and scour the land! Shed once again

your willing blood! Infuse the vibrant red

into our thin anemic veins; until

we pick up your Promethean tools and, strong,

Out of the depthless matrix of your faith

in us, and on the silent cliffs of freedom,

we carve for all time your marmoreal dream!

Until our people, seeing, are become

like the Molave, firm, resilient, staunch,

rising on the hillside, unafraid,

Strong in its own fiber, yes, like the Molave!

II.

Not yet,Rizal,not yet. The glory hour will come

Out of the silent dreaming

from the seven thousand fold silence

We shall emerge, saying WE ARE FILIPINOS!

and no longer be ashamed

sleep not in peace

the dream is not yet fully carved

hard the wood but harder the woods

yet the molave will stand

yet the molave monument will rise

and god's walk on brown legs

Answer 8

i think its the author itself. He expresses his thoughts,feelings or emotions by writing a poem. He wants the Filipinos especially Rizal, to wake up and start to make a move to claim the freedom of the Philippines. His poem inspires so many Filipinos to fight back and come up with ideas. :)
