Kung ang libbingan ko’y Jjmot na ng lahat at wala nang kurus, wala na ang bato at walang anuman na tanda ang puntod; ang mag-aarajo’y inyo ngang bayaang ang lupa’y isabog, bago ang ABO ko . . . mauwi sa wala ... ay maging alabok; mapuno sa lupa nitong ating bayang pinakaiirog . . .! Hindi alintanang ako ay limuti’t lubos nang mawala, aking 'babagtasin ang papawirin mo't malawak na lupa; wari isang awit na maririnig mo nang boong payapa; bango, ilaw, kulay, ugong, himig, daing ay boong tiyagang uulit-ulitin ang timyas ng aking mga PANIWALA . . .! Sinasambang Bayan, hirap niring hirap...! iyo ngang pakinggan; Huli kong PAALAM . . .! Iiwan sa iyo . . . mahal kong magulang . . . Ako’y patutungo sa walang alipin at punong gahaman . . . Ang paniniwala doo’y hindi sikil . . . hindi pinapatay . . . Doon ay ang DIOS ang namamahala at pumapatnubay . . .! Paalam na INA, AMA AT KAPATID na aking KAANAK . Mga kaibigang pawang kababata sa tahanang hamak; ipagpasalamat yaring pagkatapos ng aking bagabag . . . Paalam . . . BANYAGANG naging kaibiga’t nagbigay ng galak; PAALAM SA LAHAT . . .!
