Euphrates' Regrets! ! !

My wandering waves are weeping still On those who died for God's Will… I still recall some children's cries Which shook and shattered the seven skies These cries echo even till today And remind me of that gloomy day When Hussain was ready for great sacrifice He called His martyrs in heart-rending voice I witnessed the scene when He demanded water I regret I could not provide Him water I was in shackles, I was imprisoned My waves, my shores were all imprisoned It's no use crying now He has gone With friends and kinsmen, sad and forlorn I feel I can't face His Grand Father 'cause while dying He was in want of water His brother is my lord so brave Whose flag is hoisted on my wave Oft I recall those cries that burst My ears with feeble shouts of 'thirst' My days are destined but to cry On slaked tongues and throats dry I can't excuse myself my God I still regret my Lord, my God!
