the tears piling up under my eyelids

2. Then she called her friends when she saw
the pupils of my eyes swimming in their water

O mother of Malik, O leader

4. Why does a man's eye overflow
with copious washing in her flowing water?

5. They said, "We have no knowledge other than
the man in wandering love for you has become confused."
