Chale Aawo Ay Zawaaro Chale Aawo Meri Aawaaz Pe Labbaik Pukaare Jaawo Labbaik Ya Hussain

Come, O pilgrims, come. At my call, keep proclaiming 'Labbaik' (I am here). Labbaik, O Hussain.

Naam Tum Sab Ke Mere Dil Pe Hain Likhe Aawo Apne Maa Baap Ko Is Paak Safar Me Laawo Apne Bacchon Ko Bhi Ehraame Aza Pehnaawo Mere Zawaaro Meri Karbobala Aa Jaawo Ehd Karta Hun Azaadaaro Shifaa'at Ke Liye Aawo Zawaaro Chale Aawo Ziyaarat Ke Liye

The names of you all are written upon my heart; come. Bring your parents along on this sacred journey. Dress your children too in the mourning shroud (Ehraam-e-Aza). My pilgrims, come to my Karbala. I make a covenant, O mourners, for your intercession; Come, pilgrims, come for the visitation (Ziyaarat).

Khush Raho Ay Meri Rudaa Sunaane Waalo Apni Khushion Me Mera Sog Manaane Waalo Saare Aalam Me Mera Farsh Bichaane Waalo Garmi Sardi Me Meri Qabr Pe Aane Waalo Mujhko Maalum Hai Tum Logon Ki Haajat Aawo Tum Pe Ho Jaayegi Allah Ki Inaayat Aawo

Be happy, O you who recite my story (Rudaa). Those who observe my mourning amidst your own joys. Those who spread the mourning carpet (Farsh-e-Aza) across the entire world. Those who come to my grave in heat and cold. I know the needs of you people; come. Allah's grace will descend upon you; come.

Jaanibe Karbobala Jab Koyi Barhta Hai Qadam Har Qadam Par Mere Zawaar Pe Hota Hai Karam Saaya Karta Huwa Abbas Ka Chalta Hai Qadam Muntazir Rehti Hai Zehra Mere Baba Ki Qasam Mere Zawaaro Mere Dard Ke Maare Aawo Meri Maa Fatima Zehra Ke Dulaaro Aawo

When anyone takes a step towards Karbala, With every step, grace descends upon my pilgrim. The shadow of Abbas walks alongside them. By the oath of my father, Zahra (s.a.) remains in anticipation. My pilgrims, you who are stricken by my pain, come. O beloveds of my mother Fatima Zahra, come.

Tum Jo Kehte Ho Abad Wallah Ma Ninsa Hussain Amma Zehra Bhi Yahi Karti Hain Ro Ro Kar Bain Meri Mazlumi Pe Roye Hain Shahe Badr O Honain Mere Baba Bhi Hain Ab Tak Mere Gham Me Be Chain Tum Nahi Bhule To Mein Bhi Nahi Bhula Tum Ko Yaad Chalte Huwe Khanjar Me Bhi Rakhta Aawo

You who say, 'By Allah, we will never forget Hussain,' Mother Zahra also laments this same thing, weeping. The King of Badr and Hunain (Prophet Muhammad) has wept over my oppression. My father (Ali) is still restless in my grief even now. Since you have not forgotten, I have not forgotten you either; I kept you in my memory even while the dagger was moving (across my throat); come.

Tum Jo Lehraate Ho Haathon Me Uthaaye Parcham Tum Ko Maalum Hai Ho Jaata Hai Taaza Mera Gham Yaad Aata Hai Mujhe Khun Me Duba Wo Alam Jis Ke Jhuk Jaane Se Tuta Mere Bacchon Pe Sitam Mere Abbas Ki Jaagir Sajaane Aawo Haazri Roza E Abbas Pe Khaane Aawo

You who wave the flags raised in your hands, You know that it refreshes my grief. I am reminded of that standard (Alam) drenched in blood, With the falling of which, oppression broke upon my children. Come to decorate the domain of my Abbas. Come to offer your presence at the shrine of Abbas.

Mere Zawaaro Suno Ye Zameen Karbobala Mujhse Pehle To Yahaan Koyi Bhi Bas Na Sakaa Ye Zameen Karbobala Karb Ka Majmu'a Hai Hazrate Aadam O Hawwa Ka Yahin Girya Hai Sher Ne Hazrate Isaa Ko Yahin Roka Hai Aur Phir Takhte Sulaimaan Yahin Larza Hai Is Zameen Par Ibraahim Ka Rahwaar Dhasaa Paa E Musaa Me Lagi Chot Lahu Behne Laga Zabihallah Ke Haivaan Rahe Pyaase Yahaan Kashtiye Nooh Se Takraaya Yahin Par Tufaan Is Zameen Par To Pareshaan Huwa Har Insaan Mere Baba Bhi Yahin Karte Rahe Aah O Fugaan Meri Hijrat Thi Madine Se Hidaayat Ke Liye Ye Zameen Maine Kharidi Thi Shahadat Ke Liye

My pilgrims, listen, this land of Karbala— Before me, no one could settle here. This land of Karbala is a collection of anguish (Karb). Here is the weeping of Adam and Eve. Here, a lion stopped Prophet Isa (Jesus). And here, the throne of Sulaiman (Solomon) trembled. On this land, Ibrahim's (Abraham's) mount stumbled. In the foot of Musa (Moses), an injury occurred and blood began to flow. The animals of Zabihallah (Ismail) remained thirsty here. The Ark of Nuh (Noah) collided with a storm right here. On this land, every human has been distressed. My father (Ali) also kept sighing and lamenting here. My migration from Medina was for guidance; I purchased this land for martyrdom.

Do Moharram Ko Yahaan Mera Rahwaar Ruka Saath Kunba Tha Mera Mein Akela Bhi Na Tha Aawo Zawaaro Mere Saath Chalo Thaam Kar Dil Mera Maqtal Dekho Ye Maqaame Ali Akbar Hai Jahaan Mere Bacche Pe Jahaan Royi Azaan Ye Maqaame Ali Asghar Hai Jahaan Aaj Bhi Bethi Huwi Roti Hai Maan Ye Jagaah Wo Hai Mere Zawaaro Laashe Qaasim Huwi Paamaal Idhar Do Maqaamat Jo Aate Hain Nazar Kate Abbas Ke Baazu The Idhar Hain Zaraa Door Jo Do Dil Ke Qaraar Hain Mere Aun O Mohammad Ke Mazaar Asre Aashur Se Turbat Ke Qareeh Mera Hurr Aur Mera Lashkar Hai Yahi Aur Ye Tilla E Zainabya Hai Yahi Zainab Ne Ye Manzar Dekha Mujh Pe Chalta Huwa Khanjar Dekha Mera Aashur Ya Chehlum Ho Mera Karbala Aata Hai Kunba Mera Phir Sakina Jo Yahaan Aati Hai Meri Turbat Se Lipat Jaati Hai

On the 2nd of Muharram, my mount stopped here. My family was with me; I was not alone. Come, pilgrims, walk with me. Holding your hearts, see the battlefield (Maqtal). This is the place of Ali Akbar, where The call to prayer (Azaan) wept over my child. This is the place of Ali Asghar, where Even today, his mother sits and weeps. This is the place, my pilgrims, Where the body of Qasim was trampled. Two places that come into view— Here, the arms of Abbas were severed. A little further are the two comforts of my heart, The shrines of my Aun and Muhammad. Near the grave, from the time of Ashura, Are my Hurr and my army. And this is the Hill of Zainab (Tilla-e-Zainabya), Here Zainab saw this scene, She saw the dagger moving upon me. Whether it is my Ashura or my Chehlum, My family comes to Karbala. Then when Sakina comes here, She clings to my grave.

Ya Hussain

O Hussain

Mein Hun Hussain Abde Khuda Khune Nabi Khune Ali Khune Hasan Zehra Nasab Shaahe Arab Mein Hun Ataa Mein Hun Shafaa Ehle Aza Roze Jazaa Denge Tumhe Lutf O Karam Baaghe Iram Mein Hun Hussain

I am Hussain. The servant of God. The blood of the Prophet. The blood of Ali. The blood of Hasan. Of Zahra's lineage. The King of Arabia. I am the bestower. I am the healing. O mourners, On the Day of Judgment, I will give you Grace and kindness, (And) the Gardens of Paradise (Iram). I am Hussain.

Peace be upon you, O mourners of Karbala. Peace be upon you, O mourners of the Martyrs. Peace be upon you, O mourners of the Lady (Sayyada). Peace be upon you, O mourners of Murtaza (Ali). Peace be upon you, O mourners of Mustafa (Prophet). Peace be upon you, O mourners of the Loyal One (Abbas). You are the comfort of the heart of Zainab-e-Kubra. Keep saying, keep saying, 'Ya Hussain'. Our Master, Our Master, Ya Hussain.
