Florante’s Lament Comments

Powerful and deeply poignant. A well crafted poem.

Within and without my country of grief, betrayal reigns, is enshrined, esteemed; degraded everywhere, the heart’s goodness is consigned to the lowly pauper’s grave. cheating, traitor, against goodness. tony

How can i summarised this poem

i know this is translation but who did it? ? ?

A lament that cries out for vengeance, very heart-felt lament. Apparently he had a very difficult life as a poet and perhaps he added his deep pain about that into this lament. When he was dying, he begged his children not to follow in his footsteps as a writer. He told them they would be better off if they cut their hands off than be writers.

.....an extraordinary lament....and very nicely penned ★

Superb poem.......... “All these, O merciful Heaven you witness, why suffer them persist? O Source of sense and righteousness, why permit them drown in ruthlessness?

Wrath and war! But, we need peace on earth. Nice work.

The words employed to paint the plight of Albanian people, lend the voice to millions and millions of people around the world who are passing through a similar situation. Thanks. and in beloved Albania’s infinite skies, lately the flag of evil flies.

You don't judge a poem by its length but by its meaning and how well crafted is besides how it can effectively touches the readers! No doubt, this is an excellent and thought provoking write that clearly shows the sensitivity and spiritual meaning of its content! Mr. Fancisco Balagtas, you are a very talented and very sentimental poet that should keep enriching the Poetry World with more of your touching works! 10+++ Peace and Love from New York
