Shaam Waalo

Mir Hasan Mir

The captives of Karbala plead with the people of Shaam to stop their cruelty and mocking. They ask for mercy for the women and children who have suffered so much.

Shaam Waalo Kehta Tha Muhaari , Ghurbat Pe Hamaari , Bass Kar Na Rulaao ,

O people of Shaam, The captive would say, regarding our state of exile, 'Stop, do not make us weep anymore.'

Shaam Waalo Na Sataao

O people of Shaam, do not torment us.

Sar Chacha Ka Mere Iss Waaste Girjaata Hai , Inko Behno Ka Khulaa Sar Jo Nazar Aata Hai , Ghayoor Ke Sar Ko , Lillaah Na Logo, Neze Pe Uthaao

The head of my uncle falls for this reason, Because it sees the unveiled heads of his sisters. For the sake of God, O people, do not raise the head of the honorable one upon a spear.

Haaye Kya Kya Na Sitam Dhaaye Hai Ham Par Tumne , Hadd Yeh Hai Chhinli Tatheer Ki Chaadar Tumne , Ab Tum Wahi Chadar , Neze Pe Uthaakar , Hamko Na Dikhaao

Alas, what cruelties have you not inflicted upon us? The limit was reached when you snatched away the chador of purity. Now, do not show us that same chador raised upon a spear.

Ham Ulil-Amr Hai Shaayad Yeh Nahi Tumko Khabar , Ham Agar Chaahe Toh Barse Abhi Tum Par Patthar , Majboor Samajhkar , Haaye Tum Aale Nabi Par, Pathhar Na Giraao

We are the Ulil-Amr (the divinely appointed leaders), perhaps you are unaware of this. If we wished, stones would rain down upon you right now. Thinking us helpless, alas, do not rain stones upon the family of the Prophet.

Kaise Neze Pe Uthaaya Gaya Sar Asghar Ka, Kaise Paamaal Kiya Ibne -Hasan Ka Laasha , Yeh Zulm Ke Kisse , Mat Saamne Jaake , Maao Ko Sunaao

How the head of Asghar was raised upon a spear, How the body of the son of Hasan was trampled. These tales of tyranny, do not go and recite them before mothers.

Shaam -e- Aashur Se Yeh Soyi Nahi Hai Ab Tak , Mai Toh Roya Hun Yeh Royi Bhi Nahi Hai Ab Tak , Tum Maarlo Mujhko , Haaye Par Meri Phuphi Ko , Durre Na Lagaao

Since the evening of Ashura, she has not slept until now. I have wept, but she has not even been able to weep until now. You may strike me, alas, but do not strike my aunt with whips.

Raaste Bhar Yeh Tarapte Rahe Paani Ke Liye , Tumko Maalum Nahi Kabse Hai Pyaase Bache, Bacho Ko Dikhaakar , Iss Tarha Zamin Par, Paani Na Bahaao ,

Throughout the journey, they kept writhing for water. You do not know how long the children have been thirsty. Do not show the water to the children and pour it onto the ground like this.

Aaj Batki Hai Wahaan Naam Pe Zainab Ke Ridaa , Kal Taqallum Wahaa Bimaar Mera Kehta Rahaa , Yeh Aale Nabi Hai , Haaye Tum Aise Na Inko , Beparda Phiraao

Today, the veil is being auctioned there in the name of Zainab. Yesterday, my ailing one (Imam Sajjad) kept saying there: 'These are the family of the Prophet, alas, do not parade them unveiled like this.'
