05 Jun The pains of Virgin Mary (KOSTAS VARNALIS)
Where shall I hide you, my Son
so that t bad people could not reach you
in which island of the ocean
which deserted peak?
I will not teach you how to speak
and shout against the injustice
i know that you will have a heart
so good, so sweet
that captured in the nets of rage
soon, soon you will be torn into pieces.
You will have blue eyes
a tender little body
i will keep you away from the evil eye
and from ominous conditions
from the very first surprise
of your awakening youth
you are not meant to battle
your are not meant to be crucified
you are a young householder
not a slave, not a slave nor a traitor.
And if ever your mind
the fair light of thunderbolt
and the truth, demand it
my child do not reveal them
People are wild beasts, they cannot
bear the light
truth is not as golden
as the truth of silence
Even if you will be born again a thousand times
a thousand more times, they will crucify you.
