JOSE RIZAL (June 19, 1861) By FRANCISCO CARBALLO I love our nation's hero, Jose Rizal the brave; He lived a life of service, And died our land to save. He was a thoughtful writer, A famous poet too; He was a careful doctor, A painter, and patriot true. A patriot loves his country By doing noble deeds From day to day in service For country and her needs. Jose Rizal whom we ·honor For things he has done, To him we're ever grateful, Our nation's noblest son.
