Aey Mere Chand Meri Ankh Kay Tarey Asghar

Yeh Roo Kay Kehti Thi Umm E Rabab Maqtal May Haey..... Kahan Pey Sotey Ho Maa Kay Bagair Jangal May

Weeping, Umm-e-Rabab said in the killing field, Alas... Where are you sleeping in this wilderness, without your mother?

Ay Mere Chand Meri Ankh Kay Tarey Asghar Karbala Ayi Thi Main, Tere Bharosey Asghar Haey Afsoa Kay Majood Nahi Hay Paani Kesi Ghurbat Hay Meri Maa Bhala Teri Nazar, Kese Utarey Asghar

O my moon, the light of my eyes, Asghar, I came to Karbala relying on you, Asghar. Alas, it is a tragedy that there is no water, What a state of poverty is mine, How can your mother ward off the evil eye from you, Asghar?

Hath Shabbir Ki Gardan Per Rakhy Thy Jese Teer Bhi Chalty Hue Fatima Aa Kay Khari Thi Tere Aagay Asghar

Just as you had placed your hands on Shabbir's neck, Even as the arrow flew, Fatima (s.a.) came and stood before you, Asghar.

Tum Bhi Abbas Ho Kusar Pey Nahi Jana Abhi Laaj Rakh Lena Meri Hay Abhi Ehl E Haram Dasht May Piyase Asghar

You too are like Abbas, do not go to the Kauthar (fountain of paradise) yet, Preserve my honor, The family of the Prophet is still thirsty in this desert, Asghar.

Teer Ek Bar To Ek Bar Chalaye Khanjar Mere Mazloom Pisr Zibhaa Doo Bar Hua Koi Na Aese Asghar

The arrow struck once, and the dagger struck once, My oppressed son, No one has ever been slaughtered twice like this, Asghar.

Tum Nay Hans Hans K Rulaya Tha Jinhe Mere Pisr Haey Pathar Ly Kar Ab Sakina Say Wahi Lete Hain Badlay Asghar

Those whom you made weep with your smiles, my son, Alas, taking stones in their hands, They are now taking revenge from Sakina, Asghar.

Asghar Haey Asghar Shamiyun Ki Naa Nazar Unky Khulay Sir Pey Parey Apni Behno K Liye Tum Bhi Quran Parho Nok E Sinaa Say Asghar, Haey Asghar

Asghar, alas Asghar, May the gaze of the Syrians not fall upon their unveiled heads, For the sake of your sisters, You too recite the Quran, From the tip of the spear, Asghar, alas Asghar.

Teer Khatey Huey Khud Dekha Hay Mene Tumko Ab To Yeh Zulm Na Ho Koi Pathar Na Lagey Sir Pey Tumhare Asghar

I have seen you myself, being struck by the arrow, May this cruelty not happen now, May no stone strike your head, Asghar.

Pusht E Khyma Pey Banatey Thy Lahad Teri Padar Jhuk Gai Meri Qamar Chand Lamho Ko Teri Laash Utha Kay Asghar

Your father was digging your grave behind the tent, My back has broken, After lifting your body for a few moments, Asghar.

Laash Uthani Hay Mujhe Baali Sakina Ki Abhi Maa Takallum Boli Kehdey Zalim Say Mere Hath Na Bandhey Asghar

I have to lift the body of little Sakina now, Takallum, the mother said, Tell the tyrant that my hands are not tied, Asghar.
