1. I see my heart in the sky
Wounded, its edge blind

2. And my insides torn apart
Bleeding onto the sky

3. And my eyes, their tears pour down
To water all who thirst

4. And my body from remembering her
A prisoner of sorrow and fever

5. And my heart comes alive before her
When it is not bleeding

6. I was sick from her death for a year
While others fall sick today

7. Oh Rawya you have stolen
The sleep from the fortunate one

8. And you confused Abu Yaksha
For your mother, fearing she'd go blind

9. All the children were
Stars exposing the stars

10. We lost them in a year or two
What evil, oh what evil

11. The days' accident struck them down
A piercing arrow that blinded

12. She has a tender heart that
Cannot bear their sorrow for a day
