A Sparrow Dead - Ένα Σπουργίτι Νεκρό Poem by Kostas Lagos

A Sparrow Dead - Ένα Σπουργίτι Νεκρό



A sparrow dead

Where did it came from

Where did it wish to go?

A sparrow dead

Where was its nest

Where did its family rest?

A sparrow dead

See how it's bleeding

The blood runs red

A sparrow dead

Silence is absolute

No ringing of bells

A sparrow dead

Is it an omen

A sign of our world's end?





Ένα σπουργίτι νεκρό

Από πού ήλθε

Πού ήθελε να πάει;

Ένα σπουργίτι νεκρό

Πού ήταν η φωλιά του

Πού ξεκουραζόταν η οικογένειά του;

Ένα σπουργίτι νεκρό

Δείτε πώς αιμορραγεί

Αίμα τρέχει πορφυρό

Ένα σπουργίτι νεκρό

Η σιωπή είναι απόλυτη

Καμπάνες δεν χτυπούν

Ένα σπουργίτι νεκρό

Είναι άραγε οιωνός

Ένα σημάδι πως σβήνει ο κόσμος;

When innocent creatures die for no reason it may be guessed that there is seriously something wrong with this world. May be it is heading towards the end. Very nicely crafted to give the message. Thanks for sharing.

There are all the signs cautioning that the world is moving to a disastrous end. Only through sweat and tears can we restore its calm! Well composed!
