Pyare Nabi Ki Pyari Nawasi

The beloved granddaughter of the beloved Prophet

Shaam Ko Qaidi Banke Chali Hai

She has set out for Shaam as a captive

Sabr Ki Malika Zahra Ki Pyari

The Queen of Patience, the beloved of Zahra

Dekh Rahi Hai Koi To Aaye Shana Pakad Kar Kaash Bithaye Na Hai Sawari Na Hai Amaari

She is looking, hoping someone will come, If only someone would hold her shoulder and seat her, There is no mount, nor is there a litter (palanquin)

Bhai Bhatije Bhanje Bete Saat Watan Se Aayi Thi Leke Haye Muqaddar Aaj Akeli

Brothers, nephews, sons, She had brought seven (groups/loved ones) from her homeland, Alas, such destiny, today she is alone

Beton Ko Sadqa Bhai Pe Karke Jisne Kiye Thay Shukr Ke Sajde Chod Ke Tanha Laash Ko Uski

Having sacrificed her sons for her brother, She who had performed prostrations of gratitude, Leaving his body behind, all alone

Jiski Kaneezein Nikle Na Bahar Balwe May Laaye Usko Sitamgar Haaye Ye Ghurbat Binte Ali Ki

She whose handmaidens would not step outside, The oppressors brought her into the public crowd, Alas, this is the destitution of the daughter of Ali

Kitne Hi Qaidi Jisne Chudaye Aaj Wo Bibi Sar Ko Jhukaye Ek Rida Ki Banke Sawaali

She who had liberated so many captives, Today that Lady bows her head, Becoming a beggar for a single veil

Socho Wo Manzar Sarwar-o-Rehaan Bhai Ho Jiska Waarise Quran Kaise Wo Bibi Ashk Bahaati

Think of that scene, Sarwar and Rehaan, She whose brother is the Guardian of the Quran, How that Lady must be shedding tears
