    influences of Spanish culture
    and music and serves as
    reflections of that era, as seen in
    the messages of the songs.
    These songs, mostly about love of a man
    for a woman, have a deeper meaning for
    the Filipinos at that time. The man’s
    longing for the love of a woman is
    transformed into the country’s love and
    longing for a free Philippines, as
    embodied in the woman.
