Hind-Ελαφίνα Poem by Kostas Lagos

Hind-Ελαφίνα

Rating: 5.0


Like a hind you looked

offering to a sacrifice.

Oh, the innocense in your gaze!

Forgive me, for I was not strong

enough to take instead of you

those blows so hard

I did not have the power,

you hunters

to annihilate.

I gave you the only

thing I could.

I took you in my arms

and swept the blood

that was dropping from your wounds.

Accept my insignificant present

and hide it

in your precious heart.




Έμοιαζες με ελαφίνα

προσφορά για θυσία

Ω, η αθωότητα στο βλέμμα σου!

Συγχώρεσέ με, δεν ήμουν δυνατός

αρκετά να δεχτώ αντί για σένα

τα χτυπήματα τα φοβερά

Μήτε την ισχύ είχα,

τους θηρευτές σου να

εκμηδενίσω.

Σου πρόσφερα μόνο

αυτό που μπορούσα.

Σε αγκάλιασα

και σκούπισα το αίμα σου

που έσταζε από τις πληγές σου.

Δέξου το δώρο το μηδαμινό

και κρύψε το

στην πολύτιμη καρδιά σου.
