Rasan Mein Bandh Chukka Gala Lo Chal Para Who Kafila Behan Ghareeb Noha Gar Sina Pe Jab Parhi Nazar Khamosh The Shaheed Sab Akhi Ke Hilrahe The Lab

Koi Bhi Ab Nahin Bacha Bas Abide Shakista Pa Ye Saare Bane Ghamzada Gire Jo Khake Ghash Zara

No one else is left now, Only the broken-footed Abid (Imam Sajjad), They have all become grief-stricken, Falling into a faint upon the dust.

Behan Teher Teher Yahi Laraz Rahi He Kyun Zameen Sakina Girgay Kahin Na Milsake Jo Who Hazeen

Sister, stop, stop right here, Why is the earth trembling? Sakina has fallen somewhere, That sorrowful one who could not be found.

Bohot Qareeb Shaam He Hujoome Khaaso Aam He Yazeede Bad Kalaam He Ye Waqte Inteqaam He
