Drop a Pebble
in the Water
Drop a pebble in the water: just a splash,
and it is gone;
But there's a half-a-hundred ripples
circling on and on and on,
Spreading, spreading from
the center, flowing on out to the sea.
And there is no way of telling where
the end is going to be.
Drop a pebble in the water: in a minute
you forget,
But there's little waves a-flowing,
and there's ripples circling yet,
And those little waves a-flowing
to a great big wave have grown;
You've disturbed a mighty river
just by dropping in a stone.
A person Dropped dead: in a second they're
gone
But there's half-a-hundred droplets
of tears driping on and on and on.
They keep spreading, spreading,
spreading from the centers as they go,
And there is no way to stop
them, once you've started them to flow.
A person Droped dead: In a minute you
forget;
But there may be little waves of
memorries, and driplets of tears driping yet,
Drop a pebble in the water: just
a splash, and it is gone;
But there's a half-a-hundred ripples
circling on and on and on,
Spreading, spreading from
the center, flowing on out to the sea.
And there is no way of telling where
the end is going to be.
A person Droped dead : in a second and
they're gone;
But there's a half-a-hundred wispers
of the news circling on and on and on,
Spreading, spreading from
the center, flowing on out to everybody.
And there is no way of telling where
the end of that person may be.
Lets pray to Allah for those pebbles in
the water gone for only He knows what deeds they've done.
