Oh Paris,
Your tragedy interrupted my heart's song
And now
Not a single word of joy can pronounce
For
Hundreds are your innocent victims that fell
Thus
Time must it take off, your attackers to denounce!

PARIS —A series of attacks targeting young concert-goers, soccer fans and Parisians enjoying a Friday night out at popular nightspots killed at least 150 and injured more than two hundred people in the deadliest violence to strike France since World War II. President Francois Hollande condemned it as terrorism and pledged that France would stand firm against its foes.
