Oh dear little ones! Oh dear little ones! 
For you, parents had glorious dreams ! 
And you were all immersed in your own dreams 
Yet, Agni engulfed you and all of those dreams 
Taking you to Almighty's divine presence 
Usually, departed old parents are buried by sons 
Whereas, Kumbakonam, saw a sad scene! 
Crying parents burying their little ones!! 
Oh Almighty! show Your grace on those little ones 
And keep them all in Thy Holiest Presence!! 
Oh Almighty! bless those parents wilting in grief 
To have the strength to bear this great loss 
May Thy compassion and grace pervade all souls 
And bring down the pain and wipe away the tears 
Oh Almighty! show Your grace on those little ones.

A.P.J. Abdul Kalam
