Shabeer Ke Khaimay Mein Qayamat Ka Tha Manzar. Rukhsat Ke Liye Aaye Jo Abbas-E-Dilawar. Jab Ro Chukay Abbas Ko Seene Se Laga Kar. Bhai Ki Taraf Dekh Ke Kehne Lagay Sarwar.

In the tent of Shabeer (Hussain), the scene was like the Day of Judgment. When the brave Abbas came to bid farewell, After weeping and holding Abbas to his chest, Looking towards his brother, the Master (Hussain) began to say:

Batees Baras Ka Sath Hai Na Chodiye Bhai. Bhai Ke Liye Maut Hai Bhai Ki Judai.

We have been together for thirty-two years, do not leave me, brother. For a brother, the separation of a brother is death.

Abbas Mera Dil Ho Tum Hi Jan Ho Meri. Kya Meri Muhabbat Mein Kami Reh Gayi Koi. Bhai Se Zyada Tumhein Pyari Hai Tarai.

Abbas, you are my heart, you are my very life. Has there been any shortcoming in my love for you? Is the thirst (of the children) dearer to you than your brother?

Ghurbat Mein Mujhe Chor Ke Bhai Na Sidharo. Khuwaish Hai Meri Qabar Mein Tum Mujh Ko Utaro. Pardais Mein Ghurbat Humein Kis Moor Pe Layi.

Do not leave me alone in this state of helplessness, brother. It is my wish that you lower me into my grave. To what a pass has this helplessness brought us in this foreign land.

Pardais Mein Shabeer Ka Hai Kaun Sahara. Bhai Na Miley Ga Mujhe Tum Jaisa Dobarah. Kyun Chor Ke Jane Ki Khabar Tum Ne Sunai.

In this foreign land, who is there to support Shabeer? I will never find a brother like you again. Why did you give me the news of leaving me?

Ghazi Meri Behno Ko Bari Aas Hai Tum Se. Zainab Ko Jo Dharas Hai Woh Ahsas Hai Tum Se. Tum Sath Ho Iss Wastay Woh Aayi Hai Bhai.

Ghazi, my sisters have great hope in you. The comfort that Zainab feels is because of you. She only came on this journey because you are with us, brother.

So Jao Gay Tum Bazu Kata Kar Lab-E-Darya. Ammo Hain Kahan Mujh Se Yeh Pochay Gi Sakina. Masooma Na Seh Paye Gi Ammo Ki Judai.

You will sleep (die) with your arms severed by the riverbank. Sakina will ask me, 'Where is my Uncle?' The innocent child will not be able to bear the separation from her Uncle.

Jane Lagay Abbas Tu Nazron Mein Thi Chadar. Rotay Hoye Abbas Ne Dekha Tha Palat Kar. Jab Khaima-E-Kulsoom Se Aawaz Yeh Aayi.

When Abbas began to leave, the veil (of the ladies) was in his sight. Weeping, Abbas looked back, When this voice came from the tent of Kulsoom.

Aaya Nahi Phir Laut Ke Saqa-E-Sakina. Jab Gurz Laga Sar Pe Kaha Haye Sakina. Shabeer Chaley Khaimay Se De De Ke Duhai.

The water-bearer of Sakina never returned. When the mace struck his head, he cried out, 'Alas, Sakina!' Shabeer walked from the tent, crying out in anguish.

Darya Pe Kamar Tham Ke Jab Pohanchay Sirhaney. Ghazi Se Kaha Ro Ke Sheh-E-Karb-O-Bala Ne. Hai Aap Ki Furqat Ne Kamar Meri Jhukai.

When he reached the riverbank, holding his back (in pain), The King of Karbala said to Ghazi, weeping, 'Alas, your separation has broken my back.'

Zeeshano Raza Toot Gayi Aas Haram Ki. Dam Toor Gaye Shah Ki Aagosh Mein Ghazi. Shabeer Yeh Kehte Rahe Bhai Mere Bhai.

Zeeshan and Raza, the hope of the household was broken. Ghazi breathed his last in the embrace of the King (Hussain), And Shabeer kept saying, 'My brother, my brother.'
