Wawaila Wawaila, Ya Fatematuz Zahra, Ya Fatematuz Zahra

Woe is me! Woe is me, O Fatematuz Zahra, O Fatematuz Zahra

Binte Rasool Bibi Batool

The daughter of the Messenger, Lady Batool

Deti Thi Sada Zahra Aa Dekh Zara Baba

Zahra was calling out, 'Come and see, O Father'

Teri Beti Ke Laashe Pe Roti Hai Qazaa Baba

Upon the funeral bier of your daughter, even Destiny weeps, O Father

Ummat Ne Sataaya Hai, Darwaaza Giraaya Hai Naa Haath Kafan Mei Bhi, Pehloo Se Utha Baba

The Ummah has tormented me, they have brought down the door Even in the shroud, my hand cannot rise from my side, O Father

Kardaali Sanad Tukre, Jutlaae Gawaa Mere Tere Baad Musalmaan Ko, Aayi Na Hayaa Baba

They tore the deed of Fadak to pieces, they denied my witnesses After you, the Muslims felt no shame, O Father

Teri Beti Ke Laashe Pe Roti Hai Qazaa Baba

Upon the funeral bier of your daughter, even Destiny weeps, O Father

Haae Chain Na Aayega, Turbat Mei Rulaaega Tere Baad Jo Zahra Ka, Kya Haal Huwa Baba

Alas, there will be no peace, it will make me weep in the grave What became of Zahra after you, O Father

Ummat Ne Sitam Dhaaya Teri Beti Ka Haq Paaya Barbaad Se Hai Khaali, Lotaaya Gaya Baba

The Ummah committed atrocities, they seized your daughter's rights It was left desolate, it was looted, O Father

Teri Beti Ke Laashe Pe Roti Hai Qazaa Baba

Upon the funeral bier of your daughter, even Destiny weeps, O Father

Taazim Ko Jis Dar Pe Khud Aap Bhi Rukte The Haathon Se Laaino Ke Who Dar Bhi Jala Baba

The door at which you yourself used to stop out of respect That very door was burned by the hands of the cursed ones, O Father

Tere Baad Teri Beti Maatam Ko Tarasti Thi Ummat Ne Tere Gham Mei Rone Na Diya Baba

After you, your daughter longed to mourn The Ummah did not let me weep in your grief, O Father

Teri Beti Ke Laashe Pe Roti Hai Qazaa Baba

Upon the funeral bier of your daughter, even Destiny weeps, O Father

Chora Hai Hame Maadar Haae Kiske Sahaare Par Kulsom Ki Zainab Ki Aati Hai Sada Baba

Mother has left us, alas, under whose care? The cries of Kulsoom and Zainab are echoing, O Father

Mesum Jawaad Zahra Roro Ke Ye Kehti Thi Ye Ajre Risalat Hai Ummat Ne Diya Baba

Mesum Jawaad, Zahra was saying while weeping 'This is the reward of the Prophethood that the Ummah has given,' O Father

Wawaila, Ya Fatematuz Zahra, Ya Fatematuz Zahra

Woe is me, O Fatematuz Zahra, O Fatematuz Zahra
