We will resist the enemy

The bird repeats the tune

By Kisama Riyo Published about a year ago 1 min read

I wish poetry would read what the pen writes

And that would end the pain in my chest?

The bird's echo rises, repeating the tune

To remove every illusion from my sleep

And that dream reaches my heart

The wing of a bird covered with regret fluttered

From the steadfastness of the resistance and the raising of the flag

Oh my homeland, give me from the brightness of the star

A light that dispels the darkness and extracts the gloom

From my life to dispel injustice

And the world overflows and the teacher teaches us

And teaches us the stories of the magician the astrologer

Who claimed to reveal everything he claimed

The enemy who lied and branded with a smile

His signs upon us to drop the flag from our hands

And he thought that we were ignorant and believed the tumor

That afflicted us and we abandon the flag

So even if the flag falls

We will resist until it is defeated

And the sky reveals the gathering of clouds

Black filled with rain it may be

Young people who did not abandon the flag

How can we lose and the earth calls

The people do not surrender the flag

And the soul woke up from the dream

And said: Ah from an enemy of injustice

He stole the land and did not leave the flag

Either We resist and tell the universe about the courage of the masked man

Let determination and persistence beat within us

Let us raise the banner on the mast of the peaks

Let us raise the cups and drink the poison

For the enemy's poison attacked my land

If poetry taught us poetry

And we do not fear the bitterness of nothingness

For the heart has anchored in pain

And the pen refused to do anything but become a teacher
