Dear brother Knights and fellow Rizalists,
May I share with you the attached English translation of our hero's "Mi Retiro".
I titled the translation "My Haven" because in this poem Dr. Rizal was really, (for his mother's benefit) explaining why he found his place of banishment as his safe haven and place of refuge... where he found tranquil serenity, rest for his brain. and silence for his pain...
All the best,
Non omnis moriar.
Sir Edwin D. Bael
