Bayaan Kaise Ho Woh Kufe Ka Manzar Yeh Kehte Hoon Gay Jab Beti Se Haider.

How could the scene of Kufa be described? This is what Haider would be saying to his daughter.

Hamare Baad Aisay Bhi Zamane Aaenge Zainab. Issi Kofay Mein Pathar Tum Ko Mare Jaenge Zainab

After us, such times will also come, Zainab. In this very Kufa, stones will be thrown at you, Zainab.

Galay Unn Ko Laga Kar Pyar Karna Maa Ki Janib Se. Humein Dafna Ke Jab Hasnain Wapis Aaein Gay Zainab.

Embrace them and show them love on behalf of their mother. When, after burying us, Hasnain return, Zainab.

Tumhari Maa Ko Bhi Darbar Mein Logon Ne Bulwaya. Tumhein Bhi Be Rida Darbar Mein Bulwaein Gay Zainab.

People had summoned your mother to the court as well. They will also summon you, unveiled, to the court, Zainab.

Yeh Kofa Hai Yahan Ke Logon Ki Nazrein Badalti Hain. Abhi Jo Sheer Laye Hain Woh Pathar Laein Gay Zainab.

This is Kufa, where the gazes of the people change. Those who bring milk now will bring stones later, Zainab.

Ali Ne Ghar Mein Yeh Paigham Bhajwaya Hai Masjid Se. Na Tum Ghar Se Nikalna Warna Hum Mar Jaein Gay Zainab.

Ali has sent this message home from the mosque: Do not leave the house, or else I will die, Zainab.

Sitam Ho Ga Keh Qabrein Bhi Na Hoon Gi Pas Qabron Ke. Madina, Karbala, Kofa Mein Hum Bat Jaein Gay Zainab.

It will be a tragedy that the graves will not even be near other graves. We will be scattered across Medina, Karbala, and Kufa, Zainab.

Tamachay Qatal-e-Mohsin Our Woh Darbar Ki Peshi. Yeh Sare Dukh Hum Apni Qabar Mein Le Jaein Gay Zainab.

The slaps, the murder of Mohsin, and that appearance in the court. We will take all these sorrows into our graves, Zainab.

Kaha Hai Hum Ne Kyun Hasnain Ke Hotey Tumhein Zainab. Yeh Raaz Hum Hashar Ke Maidan Mein Batlaein Gay Zainab.

Why have I said, 'While Hasnain are present, [why you, Zainab]?' I will reveal this secret on the Day of Judgment, Zainab.

Na Ghabrana Humein Aawaz Dena Satwein Dar Par. Tumharey Sath Mein Darbar Hum Bhi Jaein Gay Zainab.

Do not be afraid; call out to me at the seventh gate. I will also go to the court with you, Zainab.

Takallum Keh Ke Yeh Beti Se Rukhsat Ho Gaye Maula. Hum Ab Shaam-e-Ghareebaan Tum Se Milney Aaein Gay Zainab.

Saying this, the Master departed from his daughter. 'I will come to meet you now on the Evening of the Strangers,' Zainab.
