ΕΠΙΤΑΦΕΙΟΣ
From Canto I:
Son, my flesh and blood, marrow of my bones, heart of my own heart,
sparrow of my tiny courtyard, flower of my loneliness.
From Canto VIII:
Where did my boy fly away? Where’s he gone? Where’s he leaving me?
The birdcage is empty now, not a drop of water in the font.
Whatever made your dear eyes close and you are blind to my tears?
How are yon frozen in your tracks and deaf to my bitter words?
