Musafiran-e-Musibat

Na Mehmil Hai Na Haudaj Hai, Na Lashkar Ki Wo Sajdhaj Hai, Na Sarpe Alam Na Chadar Hai, Allah Ye Kaisa Manzar Hai,

There is no litter, no palanquin, None of the army's former grandeur remains, No standard on the head, no veil covers them, O Allah, what a sight this is.

Kiya Salaam Muhammed Ke Aastane Ko, Pataa Ke Aaye Hai Zehra Ke Sab Gharane Ko, Na Kar Kubool Tu Hum Bekaso Ke Aane Ko, Ye Noha Karte Hai Aur Ashk Khu(n) Bahaate Hai

Madina Hum Tere Waali Ko Aaye Hai Kho Kar, Madina Kufe Me Sar Nange Hum Phire Dardar, Madina Daaghe Rasan Hai Humare Shaano Par, Uthaa Ke Haath Madine Ko Ye Sunaate Hai

O Medina, we have returned having lost your Master, O Medina, we wandered Kufa unveiled, door to door, O Medina, the marks of ropes are on our shoulders, Raising their hands, they tell this to Medina.

Har Ek Kadam Hai Buka Kab Labo Pe Bayn Nahi, Hamaye Zindaa Pa Zehra Ka Noor Ayn Nahi, Madina Akbaro Qasim Nahi Hussain Nahi, Ye Kaise Kaise Jawaan The Jo Yaad Aate Hai

Every step is a cry, when are there no laments on our lips? In the prison, the light of Zehra (Zainab) was not there, O Medina, Akbar is not here, Qasim is not here, Hussain is not here, What kind of youths they were, who come to mind.

Madine Waalo Kaho Us Behan Ki Kya Taqdir, Jo Dekhe Apne Biradar Ke Halq Par Shamsheer, Lahu Me Ghark Jo Dekhe Hussain Ki Tasveer, Lahu Me Kya Yuhi Baayi Ka Sar Dikhate Hai

O people of Medina, tell me, what is the fate of that sister, Who saw the blade on her brother's throat, Who saw the image of Hussain drowned in blood, Is it thus that they show the sister's head in blood?

Batawo Kahte Hai Kya Sab Us Amma Jayi Ko, Jo Arbaeen Talak De Kafan Na Bhayi Ko, Bahan Dikhayegi Mu(n) Kis Tarha Khudayi Ko, Kafan Diya Hai Na Unki Lehed Banaate Hai

Tell me, what do they say to that sister (Zainab), Who could not even provide a shroud for her brother until Arbaeen, How will the sister show her face to the Creator? She gave no shroud, nor could she build his grave.

Chala Bashir Ye Deta Huwa Khabar Har Jee, Magar Mehelaye Hashim Me Dekhta Hai Kya, Ke Ik Mariza Sare Raah Hai Khari Tanha, Hai Muntazir Ke Wo Kunbe Ke Log Aate Hai

Bashir walked, giving the news to every soul, But what does he see in the Hashimite quarter? That a sick one (Sughra) is standing alone on the path, Waiting for the people of her family to return.

Khabar Ye Phayli To Matam Har Aik Ghar Me Huwa, Nikal Nikal Pari Sab Aurate Barehnapaa, Ghiri Zamin Pe Sughra Ke Uspe Charkh Gira Ye Soghwaar Hai Sughra Ke Paas Ate Hai

When this news spread, mourning broke out in every house, All the women came out barefoot, Sughra fell to the ground as if the sky collapsed upon her, These mourners are coming to Sughra.

Fizae Dard Me Lekar Udaasiya Aayi, Shapar Se Lit Ke Idher Bhukhi Pyasiya Aayi, Utho Rasul Tumhari Nawasiya Ayi, Ye Khudko Untho Se Ehle Haram Ghiraate Hai

Jo Aayi Kaan Me Awaaze Banue Muztar Kaha Ho Ay Mere Wali Imame Jinno Bashar, Tarap Ke Rehgayi Sughra Bapa Huwa Mehshar, "Kabir" Bas Ab Falaq Thartharate Hai

When the voice of the restless Banu reached her ears, "Where are you, O my Master, Imam of Jinn and Mankind?" Sughra writhed in agony, and a scene of judgment day unfolded, "Kabir," now the very sky trembles.
