Nadeem Sarwar · 2013

Bibi Zainab calls out to her brother Abbas on the battlefield of Karbala. She asks him to rise and return to the tents where the children are waiting for him.

Ay Alam Afraashte Bar Sare Karbobala Quwate Bardaashte Bar Sare Karbobala Kehte The Shaahe Umam Bar Sare Karbobala Uth Zara Lehra Alam Bar Sare Karbobala

O you who raised the standard over Karbala, You who bore the strength over Karbala, The King of the Nations (Hussain) was saying over Karbala, 'Rise now, and wave the banner over Karbala.'

Ghaazi Alamdaare Man

O my Ghazi, my standard-bearer.

Khiz Ze Jaa O Mazan Shole Be Daamaane Eshq Miravi O Mishavad Chaaq Gharibaane Eshq Sowte Haram Gush Kon Mashqamo Borde Ast Khiz Be Pa Ya Akhaa Vaqte Alamdaari Ast Kaare Yatimaane Man Va Atash O Zaari Ast

Rise from your place, do not let flames touch the hem of love, You are leaving, and the collars of love are being torn, Listen to the voices of the Haram, they have taken my water-skin, Rise to your feet, O my brother, it is time to bear the standard, The plight of my orphans is now thirst and weeping.

Ay Mere Khasta Jigar Kha Gayi Tum Ko Nazar Kaisa Shakistaa Hai Sar Khun Me Ho Tar Batar Sote Ho Tum To Idhar Rote Hain Bachhe Udhar Jin Ko Nahi Hai Khabar Ammu Na Aayenge Ghar

O my wounded-hearted one, the evil eye has consumed you, How broken is your head, soaked and drenched in blood, You sleep here, while the children weep over there, Those who do not know that their Uncle will not return home.

Koshta E Teghe Jafaa Ay Mere Bhayya Suno Aaj To Bhaayi Kaho Khaak Se Ab To Utho Aawo Chalo Ghar Chalo Chal Ke Bahen Se Milo Pyaar Sakina Ko Do Gaud Me Asghar Ko Lo Apna Alam Le Chalo

Slain by the sword of tyranny, O my brother, listen, today call me 'brother' once more, Rise from the dust now, come, let us go home, Come and meet your sister, give your love to Sakina, Take Asghar into your lap, and carry your standard.

Deti Hai Zainab Sada Naame To Jaan Mibarad Baaz Baraadar Begu Montazerat Zainab Ast Biya O Khaahar Begu Jaaneman Ay Khasta Dil Javaabe Dokhtar Begu Biya O Kissa E Aab Baraaye Asghar Begu

Zainab calls out, Your name takes my life, speak to your sister again, Zainab awaits you, come and speak to your sister, My soul, O wounded heart, give an answer to your daughter, Come and tell the story of the water for Asghar.

Aah Panaaham Bebin Zamaane Biyaari Ast Haaye Akhi Alwida Shere Jari Alwida Ibne Ali Alwida Jaan Chali Alwida Ay Sakhi Ibne Sakhi Haaye Teri Bekasi Karte Hain Sina Zani Sarwar O Rehaan Bhi

Alas, look at my refuge, the time is one of helplessness, Alas, my brother, farewell; O brave lion, farewell, Son of Ali, farewell; my life is departing, farewell, O generous one, son of the generous, alas for your loneliness, Sarwar and Rehaan also beat their chests in grief.
