Raj Matam Kar
Perform the mourning, O Raj
Ye Shame Ghariba Hai. Bin Chadar Zainab Roti Hai, Khaymo Ka Salayaa Karti Hai. Dekha Ke Sawaar Ke Ata Hai. Samji Koi Lutne Ataa Hai. Zainab Ki Awaaz Ayi. Ke Rukje Sawaar Tu, Dukhe Dil Pe Karta Hai War Kyu. Wo Aane Wala Ye Bol Utha Pehchane Me Baba Hu Tera. Pehchane Ke, Pehchane Ke Baba Ko Zainab Gayi Bibiyo Ki Janib Zainab. Are Meda Baba Aya Hai Bibiyo, Koyi Chadar Sirpe Dalne (Koi Chadar Sirpe Dalne) Me Baba Ali Aaha Zainab. Me Baba Ali Aaha Zainab. Meri Sine Lag Gabra Nai.
This is the Evening of the Strangers (Shaam-e-Ghariban). Without a veil, Zainab weeps, tending to the burning tents. She sees a rider approaching and thinks someone has come to plunder. Zainab’s voice calls out: 'Stop, O rider, why do you strike at a grieving heart?' The one approaching replied, 'Recognize me, I am your father.' Upon recognizing her father, Zainab went towards the ladies. 'O ladies, my father has come, someone place a veil upon my head.' 'I am your father Ali, O Zainab. Come, embrace me, do not be afraid.'
