The silent prayer that I oft whispered,
echoed aloud in my ear;
as I helplessly rose to leave.
A little boy, laid crippled by the door,
with his mother drowning in grief. The child; disabled for life,
smiled as I walked past him.
My heart was now burning in sorrow,
and my tears too weak to extingush the fire.
In my mind I spoke to you,
wishing you would reply to me.
My Beloved;
I travelled so far; away from ...

By: Dr. Hasan NajafiSmoke and the winds bear the brunt;Whose house it is that is burnt ذ?Flames rise towards the sky.And rises there in a shrill cry.It is the house of the Prophet, and Zahra is inside,See, how soon, how early changed the tide!Some told: Zahra is there;He told: So What?

Open your eyes; unto whom my love I confine;
exchange a glance with me; my strength & spine!
The oppressors rejoice, their trumpets they blow;
gleaming joy from their faces does show. Every arrow they struck you with;
every spear with which they hit.
pierced my heart, as I watched you ride;
my tears from the enemy how can I hide?
Your right arm symbolized a mighty shield;
your left arm depicted my Zainab's veil.
Scenting your withering ...
