Zindan Me Abid Se Ye Kahti Hai Sakina

Mir Nabi Hassan · 2025

In the dark prison of Shaam, young Sakina asks her brother Imam Sajjad to bury her gently. She worries about the hard ground and asks him to carry her to her final rest.

Bhayya Mere Bhayya Haaye..

My brother, my brother, Alas...

Zindan Me Abid Se Yeh Kehti Hai Sakina.. Dafnana Mujhe Narm Zameen Dekh Ke Bhayya..

In the prison, Sakina says to Abid, 'Brother, find soft ground to bury me in.'

Dushwaar Hai Ek Pal Mera Iss Deher Me Jeena..

It is difficult for me to live even a single moment in this world.

Lagta Hai K Marjayegi Zindaa.n Me Sakina Bhayya Mujhe Tum Le Chalo Jaldi Se Madina.. Waa.n Dhoom Se Tum Mere Janaze Ko Uthana.

It seems Sakina will die in this prison. Brother, take me quickly to Medina, And there, carry my funeral procession with great honor.

Hai Gosht Juda Haddi Se Yeh Kaise Batayen.. Aati Hai Haddiyon Se Chatakne Ki Sadayen .. Hai Maut Qaree.n Mujh Se Bohot Ay Mere Bhayya..

How can I explain that my flesh has separated from my bones? The sound of my bones cracking can be heard. Death is very close to me, my brother.

Mar Jaaou.n Agar Qaid E Museebat Me Mai Ghutt Kar... Maadar Ko Meri Dena Tasalli Ay Biradar... Zindaan Me Hi Tum Meri Turbat Ko Banana ..

If I die suffocating in this prison of suffering, Offer comfort to my mother, O brother, But build my grave right here in the prison.

Zaalim Jo Kafan De Usey Mat Lena Khudara.. Mere Isi Kurte Ko Kafan Mera Banana.. Haathoan Pe Janaze Ko Mere Apne Uthana ..

For God's sake, do not accept the shroud offered by the tyrant. Make this very shirt of mine my shroud, And carry my funeral on your own hands.

Abid Se Sakina Yahi Karti Thi Wasiyat .. Ro Ro Ke Bayan Karti Thi Woh Apni Musibat.. Bhayya Yeh Wasiyat Meri Maadar Se Na Kehna..

Sakina was making this final request to Abid, Weeping as she described her suffering, 'Brother, do not tell my mother of this request.'

Jab Mar Gayi Zindaan Me Sarwar Ki Yateema... Saidaniyon Me Shor Utha Haaye Sakina... Lab Par Tha Tere Aaqri Dum Tak Yahi Nouha...

When the orphan of the Master (Hussain) died in the prison, A cry arose among the noble ladies: 'Alas, Sakina!' Until your last breath, this lament was on your lips...

Zeeshan Bayaa.n Kaise Kare Teri Museebat... Padhta Hai Nabi Nouha Toh Barpa Hai Qayamat... Sunkar K Azadaroa.n Ne Peeta Sar O Seena..

Zeeshan, how can one describe your suffering? The Prophet himself laments, and the Day of Judgment has arrived, Hearing which, the mourners beat their heads and chests.
