Karyotakis-Polydouri, The Tragic Love Story

Sadness of the Dusk
The roses of the dusk bloomed again tonight
golden, rosy, and purple
they faded tonight shedding their leaves
as I viewed them every evening
and every time I drink their fragrant dew
from their bloomed dawn I get intoxicated
in their soft and last breath
I consume each joy to its best.
Yet upon gazing the dusk tonight, I thought
of our love, that someday it will end
and when the roses of the dusk bloomed
golden, rosy, and purple
as they faded tonight shedding their leaves
this evening I got saddened.
