The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Roses 4 Rome" by the artist "Triarii"

Contents

The poem "Roses 4 Rome" by Triarii is a dark yet passionate call to live in the present moment, permeated with an atmosphere of decline and hopelessness. The lyrical hero addresses someone ("you"), possibly himself or a collective image of a Roman citizen, urging him to renounce the future and the past, focusing on momentary pleasures.

The world in the text appears dead, incapable of causing pain or bringing joy. The blind (perhaps a metaphor for ignorance or indifference) do not see the hero, freeing him from public opinion and expectations. The "lion's call", a symbol of the strength and power of Rome, is juxtaposed here with "the prayers of their victims", hinting at the other side of greatness - the cruelty and violence that led to decline.

The call to "enjoy yesterday" is paradoxical: the past is dead, as is the future. Perhaps this is a metaphor for nostalgia for the bygone days of Rome's greatness, an attempt to find solace in the memory of former glory.

The second verse reinforces the feeling of hopelessness: love, compassion, even the sun - everything is sacrificed to Rome. This is a desperate gesture of devotion, a willingness to do anything for the sake of the ghost of former greatness.

The repetition of the motif of death and hopelessness in the second stanza ("there will be no tomorrow," "the dead cannot feel") emphasizes the hopelessness of the situation. The "lion's roar" is replaced by "the cries of their victims", finally blurring the line between greatness and cruelty.

In the final, the hero again calls to enjoy "yesterday", accepting the inevitable and finding solace in the illusions of the past. The poem leaves a depressing impression of doom and fatalism, but at the same time it feels a desperate thirst for life, albeit devoid of hope for the future.

The world will never grieve you

It is already deceased

And no one will ever see you

Cause the blind they can not see

Hear to the calling of the lions

Hear the prayers of their prey

No tomorrow remains to save you

So let's relish in yesterday

Share my woman, share my wine

Share my soul, burn the sun

This is all, just for Rome

No tomorrow is there to be

It is already deceased

And no one will ever relove you

Cause the dead they do not feel

Hear the calling of the lions

Hear the screaming of their prey

Nothing remains to save you

So let's relish in yesterday
