So Ja Sakina

Ameer Hasan Aamir

Imam Hussain comforts his young daughter Sakina in the final moments before he leaves for the battlefield. He asks her to sleep while he still holds her close.

Pyari Sakina Pyasi Sakina Pyari Sakina Bali Sakina

My beloved Sakina, my thirsty Sakina, My beloved Sakina, my young Sakina.

Soja Sakina Soja Sakina

Go to sleep, Sakina, go to sleep, Sakina.

Phir Na Milega Baba Ka Seena Na Ghabrao Zakhmi Badan Ko Na Dekho Sakina Mere Pairahan Ko Na Dekho Ye Baba Ka Hai Imtehan Ay Hazeena

You will not find your father's chest again, Do not be afraid, do not look at my wounded body, Sakina, do not look at my torn clothes, This is your father's trial, O sorrowful one.

Meri Zindagi Mein Na Aansu Bahao Wagarna Mai Keh Doonga Qaime Mein Jao Tumhe Mere Bin Aur Kuch Din Hai Jeena

Do not shed tears while I am still alive, Otherwise, I will tell you to go back to the tent, You have to live a few more days without me.

Tujhe Kis Tarha Se Dilaase Doo Beti Mai Kuch Dayr Ka Aur Mehman Hoo Beti Hai Majhdhaar Mein Mera Is Dam Safina

How can I console you, my daughter? I am a guest for only a little while longer, my daughter, My boat is in the middle of a whirlpool right now.

Mere Baad Guzrenge Faaqon Pe Faaqe Mere Baad Khaane Hai Tujhko Tamache Na Tu Jaa Sakegi Palat Kar Madina

After me, you will endure hunger upon hunger, After me, you will have to bear slaps, You will not be able to return to Medina.

Sakina Bahot Gham Uthane Hai Tujhko Abhi Taziyane Bhi Khaane Hai Tujhko Hai Maathe Pe Tere Ye Kaisa Pasina

Sakina, you have to bear so much grief, You still have to endure the lashes of whips, What is this sweat upon your forehead?

Sakina Mere Khoon Ki Laaj Rakhna Kisi Se Kabhi Koi Shikwa Na Karna Har Ek Saans Par Khoon Ka Ghoont Peena

Sakina, uphold the honor of my blood, Never complain to anyone about anything, With every breath, swallow a gulp of blood.

Tujhe Aaj Kyun Neend Aati Nahi Hai Hai Khamosh Kyun Kuch Bataati Nahi Hai Tu Anghushtari Ka Hai Meri Nagina

Why is it that you cannot sleep today? Why are you silent, why do you not tell me anything? You are the gemstone of my ring.

Mera Sar Dikhayega Tujhko Sitamgar Tere Sar Se Phir Cheen Lega Wo Chadar Satayega Reh Reh Ke Tujhko Kamina

The tyrant will show you my severed head, Then he will snatch the veil from your head, That wretch will torment you again and again.

Sada Denge Asif Azadaar Sun Kar Na Padh Aur Aamir Ay Sheh Ke Sukhanwar Ke Tadpenge Marqad Mein Shaahe Madina

The mourners will call out upon hearing this, Asif, Do not recite anymore, O Aamir, poet of the King, For the King of Medina will writhe in his grave.
