Baba Muje Zindaan Ke Andhere Se Bachalo

Ali Deep Rizvi

A young girl sits alone in a dark and cold prison cell in Damascus. She calls out to her father and begs him to rescue her from the fear and loneliness.

NohaZindan Shaam

Haye Baba

Alas, O Father

Baba Mujhe Zindaan Ke Andhere Se Bacha Lo Tanhai Se Wehshat Se Mujhe Aake Nikalo Baba Mujhe Zindaan

Father, save me from the darkness of this prison, Come and rescue me from this loneliness and terror, Father, save me from this prison.

Haari Hui Taqdeer Hain Ab Saath Me Mere Kurte Ki Jali Aankh Hain Ab Haath Me Mere Taqdeer Ki Mari Ko Gale Ake Lagalo

Defeated destiny is now my only companion, I hold the burnt remnant of your shirt in my hands, Come and embrace this girl, struck by ill-fate.

Galon Se Tamache Ke Nishaan Ake To Dekho Yeh Teri Judai Me Saza Me Mili Mujhko Mar Jaugi Ro Ro Ke Mujhe Aake Sambhalo

Come and see the marks of slaps upon my cheeks, This is the punishment I received in your separation, I will die from weeping, come and comfort me.

Karbal Se Tujhe Shaam Tak Di Maine Sadayein Afsos Magar Tune Suni Na Meri Aahein Aagosh Me Apni Mujhe Aake Sula Lo

From Karbala to Shaam, I kept calling out to you, But alas, you did not hear my sighs, Come and let me sleep in your embrace.

Yeh Roshni Koi Nahi Koi Taza Hawa Hain Seene Me Mera Saans Bhi Ab Rukne Laga Hain Is Gor Andhere Se Mujhe Aake Nikalo

There is no light here, nor any fresh air, Even my breath is beginning to stop in my chest, Come and take me out of this dark grave-like prison.

Zindaan Ke Andhere Me Mujhe Neend Na Aye Baba Hain Mere Chaaron Taraf Maut Ke Saaye Bas Ek Dafa Apne Seene Pe Sula Lo

I cannot find sleep in the darkness of this prison, Father, the shadows of death surround me on all sides, Just once, let me sleep upon your chest.

In Saase Yateemi Ke Saaye Me Rahi Hoon Baba Tere Qaatil Ke Main Saath Chali Hoon Gurbat Pe Mere Aake Zara Aansu Baha Lo

I have lived under the shadow of these orphaned breaths, I have walked alongside your killer, Father, Come and shed a few tears over my misery.
