Scene II:... The harsh verdict
(Characters: H. Nafets / Nimim / The Apologist militia)


(Wer: ) Always did I support thee...
Never did I doubt thy choice
But thou broke the love of three...
Now, thou must undergo my voice!
Blind anger in my mind, grows suffering inside...

(Nimim: ) But you were not there when I swore...
When I swore to Tyro i'd rather die...
Than kill a man once more!
(Wer: ) Traitress, thy trial will come soon!
My heart, my love, victim of this deadly doom....
My verdict for thy crime, harsh as I am now
Will fall down upon thee!
Now, retaliation is all mine
I claimed thy son
You'll see what my despair can be!

(Nimim:) I always knew how this would end
In my inner self I'm what I was meant to be...
Now you ask for me to bend...
Deny my innocence... To take your revenge on me!

(Wer: ) Broken family ties
Thy bastard son shall die!
(Nimim: ) The cry of truth
Before your own blindness, needs to confess
(Wer: ) Thou dishonored Army... For murder:
Found guilty!

(Enters the Apologist militia: )
Στο όνομα της Σίριας, συλλαμβάνετε

(Nimim: ) The cry of truth
Before your own blindness, needs to confess

(Wer, to herself: ) I, I can't stand the loss of...
O, my poor beloved, deprived of my last embrace
So many tears, turned to fire and sear my face...
A styx I bleed, on thee, will flood!

(Nimim: ) Accuse me, imprison me
If it erases the pain you feel...
Do it now, I won't flee
My death is all that you will have to heal!
Judge me here, in this place...
Where your son should have dived
To save me from disgrace... Would he has connived?

Condemn me with no question to ask
About your husband...
Have you ever seen under his mask?
His murderer, my son...
Never you will snare, even in searching everywhere...

(To the audience:) Accepted in this family
Then rejected, I've been accused of all ills...
But true guilty ones are protected
First one by his lie, second by a mother’s last will
