Aaja Meri Jaan Sakina
Syed Raza Abbas Zaidi · 2025
A young girl wanders through the battlefield searching for her father among the fallen. She finds his resting place and shares her pain with him.
Haaye Baba, Baba, Baba
Alas, Father, Father, Father
Zakhmi Kaanon Pe Hathon Ko Rakhe Hue Niklee Khaimon Se Ik Bachi Roti Hui Is Ka Kurta Jala Surkh Rukhsaar Tha Baba Baba Ki Woh De Rahi Thi Sada Haye Baba Haye Baba Haye Larzah Tha Is Ke Hathon Mein Baap Ko Dhoondti Thi Laashon Mein Jab Woh Baba Ko Dhoond Nah Payi Aik Lashe Se Ye Sada Aayi
With hands placed upon her wounded ears, a child emerged from the tents, weeping. Her shirt was burnt, her cheeks were flushed red. She was calling out, 'Father, Father.' Alas, Father, alas, Father. Alas, there was a tremor in her hands; she was searching for her father among the corpses. When she could not find her father, this voice came from a body.
Aaja Meri Jaan Sakina Tu Kahan Hai Tera Baba Yahan Hai
Come here, my life, Sakina, where are you? Your father is here.
Aise Ghabra Nahi Meri Bachi Hai Tera Baba Taire Sath Abhi Dhoond Laashon Mein Aik Laash Aaisi Jiski Ik Aungli Kati Hai Beti Sunkay Sakina Ne Kaha Baba Unn Hathon Se Tum Ne Jo Tohfe Mein Mujhe Lakar Diye The Shamer Woh Gohar Le Gaya Baba Kahan Ho Khoo Mere Kaanon Se Baha Baba Kahan Ho
Do not be so anxious, my child. Your father is with you right now. Search among the bodies for one such body, whose one finger is severed, my daughter. Hearing this, Sakina said: 'Father, those gifts you had brought for me, Shamer took those jewels away. Father, where are you? Blood flowed from my ears. Father, where are you?'
Meri Aawaz Sunke Aja Idher Ho Chuka Hai Mera Badan Be Sir Waar Itne Kiye Gaye Mujh Par Aa Chuki Hain Meri Ragein Bahar Aate Hue Mein Ne Suna Keh Raha Tha Koi Phuphion Ke Shaanon Se Meri Gardan Bandhe Gi Chhota Hai Qad Sab Se Mera Baba Kahan Ho Hoga Mera Zakhmi Gala Baba Kahan Ho
Listen to my voice and come here. My body has become headless. So many blows were struck upon me that my veins have come out. While coming, I heard someone saying, 'My neck will be tied to the shoulders of the aunts.' My stature is smaller than everyone's. Father, where are you? My throat will be wounded. Father, where are you?
Kaise Pehchano Gi Mujhe Balo Mil Ke Mara Hai Tere Baba Ko Ae Meri Jaan Meri Baat Suno Sab Se Zakhmi Badan Talaash Karo Mar Ke Jab Tum Ko Laain Khaimon Mein Aaya Baal Mere Kheinche Mujhe Mara Tamancha Zakhmi Huwa Chehra Mera Baba Kahan Ho Itna Mujhe Mara Gaya Baba Kahan Ho
How will you recognize me, child? They have collectively killed your father. O my life, listen to my words: search for the body that is the most wounded. When they brought you after beating you, I came to the tents. They pulled my hair, they slapped me. My face became wounded. Father, where are you? I was beaten so much. Father, where are you?
Kab Se Jaagi Hai Paas Aa Mere Aa Rahi Hogi Beta Neend Tujhe Tu Magar Soye Gi Yahan Kaise Mera Seena Bhara Hai Teeron Se Teer Nikalon Gi Mein Khud Nanhe Hathon Se Baba Magar Saongi Main Seene Pe Tere Run Mein Andhera Hogaya Baba Kahan Ho Seena Kahan Dhundon Tera Baba Kahan Ho
You have been awake for so long, come near me. You must be feeling sleepy, my daughter. But how will you sleep here? My chest is filled with arrows. 'I will remove the arrows myself with my tiny hands, but Father, I will sleep on your chest.' It has become dark on the battlefield. Father, where are you? Where should I search for your chest? Father, where are you?
Pehli Manzil Hai Yh Museebat Ki Zulm Sehne Hain Thujko Aur Abhi Jo Sune Ga To Hai Meri Beti Aur Maare Ga Thujko Ae Bibi Aap Ki Beti Hon Usse Jab Ye Bataya Jaan Ke Zalim Ne Mera Daman Jalaya Chheen Ke Le Gaya Rida Baba Kahan Ho Deti Rahi Mein Ye Sada Baba Kahan Ho
This is the first stage of the calamity. You have to endure oppression even now. Whoever hears that you are my daughter will beat you, O lady. When I told him that I am your daughter, the oppressor, knowing this, burnt my veil. He snatched away my cloak. Father, where are you? I kept giving this call: Father, where are you?
Ye Bhi Pehchan Hai Meri Sun Le Jab Giraya Gaya Mujhe Zeen Se Yun To Talwaar Bhi Chali Mujh Pe Sab Se Gehre Hain Zakham Naizon Ke Naize Ka Jab Naam Suna Boli Sakina Is Tarah Khuli Ne Mujhe Naize Se Mara Chehre Ke Bal Giradiya Baba Kahan Ho Yaad Bohat Aaye Chacha Baba Kahan Ho
Listen, this is also my identification: when I was thrown from the saddle, although swords were also used on me, the wounds of the spears are the deepest. When she heard the name of the spear, Sakina said, 'In this way, the cruel one struck me with a spear, and threw me face-first.' Father, where are you? I missed my uncle so much. Father, where are you?
Dhoonda Zeeshan Aur Raza Har Soo Aayi Jis Waqt Baap Ki Khushbu Ponch Kar Nanhe Haath Se Ansoo Pohanchi Lashe Pe Hoke Be Qaboo Gham Jo Sahe Bhool Gayi Jab Dekha Manzar Ghoron Se Pamaal Badan Aur Tha Kata Sir Phir Na Sakina Ne Kaha Baba Kahan Ho Uth Ke Sunu Haal Mera Baba Kahan Ho
Zeeshan and Raza searched everywhere. When the fragrance of the father arrived, wiping away tears with her tiny hands, she reached the body, becoming uncontrollable. She forgot the grief she had endured when she saw the scene: the body trampled by horses, and the head severed. Then Sakina did not say, 'Father, where are you? Rise and listen to my condition, Father, where are you?'
