The Threshold-Το Κατώφλι Poem by Kostas Lagos

The Threshold-Το Κατώφλι

Rating: 5.0


You ask me,

who wishes

to forever live,

who is satisfied

with a long boring life?

No one, my friend,

except him

who is standing

on the threshold

of death



Με ρωτάς,

ποιος να ζήσει

για πάντα εύχεται,

ποιος αρκείται σε μια

μακριά βαρετή ζωή;

Κανείς, φίλε μου,

εκτός από αυτόν που

στο κατώφλι βρίσκεται

του θανάτου.
