A poem written by Sayf bin Umayrah al-Nakhi, who was a companion of Imam al-Sadeq (as) and Imam al-Kadhim (as), eulogizing Sayeda Roqayyah (as): 
Upon Sakina, tranquility has departed,
When her separation from her father left her broken-hearted.
For Roqayyah, even the envious is softened by her weakness,
For those have not pardoned her, will ask for forgiveness.
When her separation from her father left her broken-hearted.
For Roqayyah, even the envious is softened by her weakness,
For those have not pardoned her, will ask for forgiveness.
I shall never forget Sakina and Roqayyah,
Where tears are shed with powerful woes.
They implore their pure mother Fatima,
The call of those whom are broken and sorrowful.
Where tears are shed with powerful woes.
They implore their pure mother Fatima,
The call of those whom are broken and sorrowful.
O' Mother, this is Hussain upon us,
Covered in soil resembling a bright full moon.
The soil of Karbala is covered with,
The blood of the corpse of the holy one.
Covered in soil resembling a bright full moon.
The soil of Karbala is covered with,
The blood of the corpse of the holy one.
Reported by Sheikh Fakhr al-Deen al-Turaihi in his book al-Muntakhab.
