Baba Abhi Mat Jaaeye

Baba Abhi Mat Jaaeye

Mir Sajjad Mir

Bibi Zainab stands by the side of her brother, Imam Hussain, and asks him not to leave her alone in the desert.

NohaShahadat Hussain

Haye Baba Mere Baba Zakhmi Baba

Alas, Father, my Father, wounded Father.

Baba Abhi Mat Jaaeye

Father, do not go just yet.

Mayyat Pe Zainab Ne Kaha Aankhe To Apni Kholiye Khamosh Kyu Hai Boliye Kya Hogaye Humse Khafa

At the funeral, Zainab said: Please open your eyes. Why are you silent? Speak to me. Have you become displeased with us?

Mayyat Uthi Gar Aap Ki Baba Yahi Mar Jaongi Mujh Mei Nahi Aab Hounsla

If your funeral bier is lifted, Father, I will die right here. I have no strength left in me.

Eid Aarahi Hai Babajaan Kese Rahengi Betiyaan Veeran Ghar Ho Jaayega

Eid is approaching, dear Father. How will the daughters remain? The house will become desolate.

Kyon Mere Bazu Chum Ke Aayese Tadap Kar Roye The Batlaye Kya Yaad Aagaya

Why did you kiss my arms And weep with such agony? Tell me, what did you remember?

Bazar Kese Jaongi Darbar Kese Janogi Mei Seekh Lo Chalna Zara

How will I go to the bazaar? How will I go to the court? Teach me how to walk [in this state].

Jitne Bhi Hai Kofi Khade Patthar Na Mare Yeh Muhjhe Kehdejiye Inse Zara

All these Kufans standing here, May they not throw stones at me. Please, just tell them this.

Aata Nahi Usko Chaeen Bhola Nahi Maa Ko Hussain Marjayega Bhai Mera

He finds no peace; Hussain has not forgotten Mother. My brother will die [from this grief].

Ghabrayigi Amma Meri Ghuslo Kafn Ke Baad Bhi Khoon Beh Raha Hai Aap Ka

My mother will be terrified. Even after the ritual bath and shroud, Your blood is still flowing.

Parda Chenega Jab Mera Aayenge Milne Karbala Yeh Wada Karlije Zara

When my veil is snatched away, Will you come to meet me in Karbala? Please, make this promise to me.

Sajjad Kesi Thi Ghadi Roti Thi Khud Binte Ali Jisdum Yaateemo Ne Kaha

Sajjad, what a moment that was; The daughter of Ali herself was weeping, The moment the orphans said [these words].
