Sailab--shehzad nir

many  shrieks  drowned  under  the  racing  floods
Some  voices  raised  to  breathe  their  last

Who  can leash  water, or  clutch  muddy  soil
Those who  tied  rope  bridges  were  washed  away

Towering  walls  of  water  jumped  into  the  town
Children held  to  trees uprooted  torn  away

Mourning  town  leveled  down -begging
Was  each  soul handful of  grain

Stone  cutters  lifted corpses  of  town  children
All  roads  to  the  city  sunken under  water

Nir--ups  and  downs  of  world  turn the  flow
Big  mills  hang  on-crops  pulled  down
