Shehryar Khawar

Down and down in the deep dark void,

down and down we go

Helpless puppets on unseen strings,

dancing to and fro

Down and down in the deep dark void,

where all is down and low

River of sorrow and the vale of loss,

all but misery and woe

Down and down in the deep dark void,

where all is grey and a black shadow

Seeds of poison and all decays,

whatever do you sow

Down and down in the deep dark void,

where all is cold and snow

The chill of loss and damnation,

only death and its morbid cargo
