Haaye Sakina

Haae Sakina, Qaid Hokar, Shaam Ke Zindaan Mei, Jab Aayi Woh Bachi, Us Andhere, Ghar Ki Taariki Se Ghabraayi Zamin To Farsh Thi Saaya Faghan Tha, Charkh Neel Aayi Muqaddar Mei Musibat Ki Ye Pehli Raat Dikhlaayi

Alas, when Sakina arrived in the prison of Shaam as a captive, That child was terrified by the darkness of that house. The earth was her floor, the shadows were her lament, the blue sky her roof, Destiny showed her this first night of calamity.

Phuphi Ke Paas Rehti Thi, Naa Maa Ke Paas Soti Thi Haae Phuphi Ke Paas Rehti Thi, Naa Maa Ke Paas Soti Thi Haae Barehnaa Sar Khari Zindaan Ke Darwaaze Pe Roti Thi

She would stay by her aunt's side, she would not sleep by her mother's side, Alas, she would stay by her aunt's side, she would not sleep by her mother's side, Alas, with an unveiled head, she stood at the prison door and wept.

Udhar Se, Jo Guzar Ta Tha Use Kehti Thi Sultaan Jaa Mei Bekas Qaid Mei Baithi Hun Ik Paigaam Hai Mera Agar Baba Mile Tujko To Tu Kehnaa Qasam Khaata Sakina Par Musibat Hai Khabar Lo Ai Shahe Waala

Whoever passed by, she would say, 'O traveler, go, I sit helpless in captivity, I have a message for you. If you meet my father, then swear by him and say, Sakina is in distress, come to her aid, O noble King.'

Agar Tujse Kahen Khaimon Mei Sota Chor Aaya Hun To Tu Kehna Dare Zindaan Pe Rota Chor Aaya Hun

If he says to you, 'I left her sleeping in the tents,' Then you say, 'I left her weeping at the prison door.'
