Ya as-sayyid Sajjadina
O' our dear leader, Jewel of believers
Why are you so silent? your voice you never rise
Your family was martyred right before you eyes
Ali ibnal Husayn
Yabnal Husayn they ask why are you greiving
Yaqob lost one son, then lost his vision from weeping
Yabnal Husayn your family martyred for believing
O' our dear Imam we don't know what your feeling
Ali ibnal Husayn
In the desert sands you march
Your thirsty lips are parched
They treated you so harsh
Blood dripping from your chained hands
Stains the the sand red
But this is not the reason for the tears that you shed
On the top of that spear is your fathers head
Ali ibnal Husayn
Grandson of Ali, Grandson of Zahra
O' son of Mecca, O' son of Kabaa
Between hope and pain
O' son of Safa
Your family was slain on the plains of Karbala
Ali ibnal Husayn
In Madina you serve anyone mistreated
The crippled and the weak
The hungry you feed them
If they offer you a drink
Your heart starts bleeding
The thought of arrow shots Abbas was receiving
Ali ibnal Husayn
O' ornament of worshippers
The Psalms you left they nurture us
For the sick, homeless, oppressed and all of us soul searchers
We're crying and distressed
A life of tragedy
Yet is was so blessed, Ya Ali, tranquility

Imam Musa Kadhim - Mulla Ali Fadhil - Over his body...They Cry... - English
Mulla Ali Fadhil reciting an English eulogy on the martydom of Imam Musa Al Kadhim
Lyrics:
The Shia are screaming crying...that their Imam is...
Mulla Ali Fadhil reciting an English eulogy on the martydom of Imam Musa Al Kadhim
Lyrics:
The Shia are screaming crying...that their Imam is dead
And the skies are testifying...that holy blood was shed
Over his body...they cry can't you see
They cry can't you see...over his body
* * *
How are their hearts that believing...that when he dies they can't rest
And with the death of Al Khathom...tears are shed in East and West
Even the sky sheds tears for him...with Al Khathom laid to rest
With him gone even angels weep...him dying is their great test
Were it not for this tragedy...the Shia would not cry
And for his great calamity...the Shia's hearts will die
Over his body...they cry can't you see
They cry can't you see...over his body
* * *
With his death the days are darkened...and his Shia cry and weep
For these tears they will be oppressed...the cost of a love so deep
To many this love is a crime...after they sew what they reap
Love of al Khathom is an oath...an oath that Shia will keep
Imam Khathom was the Quraan...that his followers read
The love of Ahmed they had won...but now their hearts are dead
Over his body...they cry can't you see
They cry can't you see...over his body
* * *
The day turns dark with deep anger...like when Haydar's blood was shed
The same darkness poisons his son...a pool of blood for his bed
That blood did not start with Ali...it was shed from Zahra's head
After they slapped her and she cried...now al Khathom cries instead
This pure bloodline was always killed...so Khathom's death was fate
In Shia hearts love is instilled...for Mehdi they will wait
Over his body...they cry can't you see
They cry can't you see...over his body
* * *
Like the bee can't leave the flower...Imam Khathom they can't leave
Over his pure body they weep...and for endless nights they grieve
Like the young bird will leave its nest...Khathom's soul left and believe
And that soul belongs to Jannah...like Adam belonged to Eve
Between his sickness and his death...lies Imam Khathom's tears
Between his birth and his last breath...he cried for months and years
Over his body...they cry can't you see
They cry can't you see...over his body
* * *
