My heart trembles when I listen to the tragedy of Karbala,
It’s the first day of the month, when a mother dresses her children in black, pakeezah (pure) attire, putting away all party outfits and bringing out modest, simple clothing.
O whose Master I am,

Chambered in my chest on the plains of Karbala
vast clusters
This stinging, this jabbing
When the wailing of the night has hushed
A daughter is a quiet cave
