Laasha Jari Ka

Laasha Jari Ka

Syed Raza Abbas Zaidi

Imam Hussain finds his brother Abbas on the battlefield after he has given his life. He is heartbroken because he cannot carry his brother's body back to the tents.

NohaShahadat Abbas

Laasha Jari Ka Qaime Mein Laaya Na Ja Saka

The body of the brave one could not be brought into the tent.

Pyason Ki Tashnagi Ko Bujhaya Na Ja Saka Sheh Bole Bhai Humse Khafa Hogaye Ho Kya Dekho Hamari Simt Hilao To Lab Zara Kyun Bhai Kehke Humko Bulaya Na Ja Saka

The thirst of the parched ones could not be quenched. The King (Hussain) said, 'Brother, have you become displeased with me? Look towards us, move your lips just a little, Why could you not call out to me as 'Brother'?'

Zaanu Pe Sar Rakhe Hue Rotay Rahe Imam Ghazi Tadap Ke Bole Fida Aap Par Ghulam Qidmat Ka Haq Bhi Hum Se Chukaya Na Ja Saka

The Imam kept weeping while holding his (Abbas's) head on his lap. The Ghazi (Abbas) writhed and said, 'Your servant is sacrificed for you, Even the duty of service could not be fulfilled by me.'

Zakhmi Meri Sakina Ka Mashkeeza Hogaya Maula Ab Iske Baad Mai Jee Kar Karunga Kya Afsos Haye Waada Nibhaya Na Ja Saka

My Sakina's water-skin has been wounded/pierced, Master, what will I do by living after this? Alas, the promise could not be kept.

Qaime Ki Simt Jaane Ki Baakhi Rahi Na Taab Sheh Bole Doonga Kya Mai Sakina Ko Ab Jawab Ghazi Nahi Ye Raaz Chupaya Na Ja Saka

The strength to go towards the tent remained no more, The King said, 'What answer will I give to Sakina now?' Ghazi is no more; this secret could not be hidden.

Baazu Kata Ke Nehr Pe Abbas Sogaye Maula Hussain Dasht Mein Be-Aas Hogaye Bhai Ko Haale Dil Bhi Sunaya Na Ja Saka

Having had his arms severed, Abbas fell asleep on the riverbank, Master Hussain became hopeless in the desert, The state of his heart could not even be told to his brother.

Jeeti Hai Jang Kisne Bata Dasht E Nainawa Kiska Tawaf Karti Hai Khud Nehre Alqama Qabza Samar Jari Se Chudaya Na Ja Saka

Tell me, who won the battle in the desert of Nainawa? Whom does the river Alqama itself circumambulate? The grip of the brave one could not be loosened.
