"The God Abandons Antony" (; also translated as "The God Forsakes Antony") is a poem by Constantine P. Cavafy, published in 1911.
The God Abandons Antony refers to Plutarch's story of how Antony, besieged in Alexandria by Octavian, heard the sounds of instruments and voices of a procession making its way through the city, then passing out; the god Dionysus (Bacchus), Antony's protector, was deserting him; the poem's title itself is a verbatim quotation from Plutarch's text.
Leonard Cohen and Sharon Robinson freely adapted this poem for their song "Alexandra Leaving" (Ten New Songs, 2001). Whereas Cavafy's theme was based around the city of Alexandria, Cohen's version builds around a woman named Alexandra.
