Boy

A boy sees his father's features in the mirror
They were often noticed in his childhood
He felt proud when being compared to
Adult men
 
A boy sees his father's gaze in the mirror,
The gaze he learned to avoid early on
The child got to learn from early age:
You have to please father
 
Years of silence on his shoulders
 
Who could erase from the stream of time?
Wounds pass from one generation to another
Who could grant a pardon when fathers' deeds
Are etched in grandsons? Who will pardon?
 
The discouraged boy has hidden, unaddressed
Defiance, which cannot come to light
He doesn't dare to come near another person,
To a place, where you'll be chastised
 
Shut your mouth, boy, or they'll think you're a girl
Tears won't help in the world
You don't become a man by arguing
Now stand there and swallow everything
 
Years of silence on his shoulders
 
Who could erase from the stream of time?
Wounds pass from one generation to another
Who could grant a pardon when fathers' deeds
Are etched in grandsons?
 
Who could erase from the stream of time?
Wounds pass from one generation to another
Who could grant a pardon when fathers' deeds
Are etched in grandsons? Who will pardon?
