Treason - Προδοσία Poem by Kostas Lagos

Treason - Προδοσία

Rating: 5.0


Fear of the rebel who fights injustice

promising freedom by taking a vow

Because he will undoubtedly become

the oppressor he's dethroning now



Τρέμε τον επαναστάτη που μάχεται την αδικία

που παίρνει όρκους υποσχόμενος ελευθερία

Διότι αυτός όμοιος θα γίνει, χωρίς αμφιβολία,

με τον τύραννο του οποίου τερματίζει τη βασιλεία

A powerful and insightful poem. So very true. They fight under the cloak of injustice but when they have the power they are worst than the oppressor. Cleverly written.
