Beautiful girl among beautiful girls. The
first stanza represents beautiful and
delicate woman. The breeze glides to a
delicate singing from the soft blossom
falling. The wind of heaven represents the
love of that woman. That whenever you
catch a glimpse of the beauty of the
woman, will make you smile and never
would sigh.
The significance of the first stanza is that
it teaches us to value and appreciate the
beauty of women. Rizal composed this
poem because he has seen a girl that
possessed life without sorrow, and it is
very adorable to see. In our time today
we should learn to appreciate other
people not just the beauty but inside and
outside appearance.
