A Mother's Lament

rn down by its own maker
Crushed to substitute exile

Oh what’s the worth of my embrace?
Traitor blood runs in their veins
Feed my anger, my revenge

When was I blindfolded? When did I yield?

Oh father! My betrayal, betrayed me now!
This cruel man, my equal, makes me a vow!

No remorse can mend a heart deprived of love
Only tears bear witness of those precious moments in our past:
In golden light resounds the world that once was ours, forever ours

Our sons sleep, while their mother still weeps
They have not heard your bitter words
Nor have they seen the ruins of this dream?
Are we to be a passing memory?

Oh brother! My betrayal, betrayed me now!
This cruel man, my equal, makes me a vow!

No remorse can mend a heart deprived of love
Only tears bear witness of those precious moments in our past:
In golden light resounds the world that once was ours, forever ours

Now only hatred fuels my heart deprived of love
Run from the storm that’s raging on
I hereby promise to avenge!
Run! Before I find and destroy all that you hide
Run from our lives!
Oh hatred fuels my heart deprived of love!
I will hurt you!

Jason, master of treachery, you’re a fool to think I’ll ever yield. You can wield the sword and smother my voice, but dethroned I’ll never be. For I now pledge to avenge the maker of his own belief and when collapsed he shall remain a hermit trapped in grief.

Remember we sealed our last vow: only death can part us!
We’ll share this exile, solitude and all denial: even death won’t part us!
For now and to forever we’ll share this pain together! Even death won’t part us!
