In Thebes' high walls, where shadows play,
Polynices stands, in strife's sway.
With eyes so fierce, and spirit bold,

In Polynices's soul, the strife lies.
With every clash, his anger grows,
In every battle, his fury shows.

With every tear, and whispered word,
In Polynices's name, their hope is heard.
