Haye Zainab Lut Rahi He, Ay Azeezo Tum Kaha Ho Sooye Kofa Ja Rahi He, Aye Azeezo Tum Kahan Ho

Alas, Zainab is being plundered, O my dear ones, where are you? She is being taken towards Kufa, O my dear ones, where are you?

O youth of the Hashim clan, save us from this oppression. The veils of the ladies are now adorning the tips of spears. Everything is weeping for us, O my dear ones, where are you?

Ham Ko Durrun Se Bachaye, Koi Ekh To Sunle Noha Dasht E Ghurbat Ker Rahi He, Aj Ham Per Khud Bi Girya Meri Dunya, Lut Gai He, Aye Azeezo Tum Kahan Ho

Save us from the lashes, let someone at least hear our lament. The desert of exile is itself weeping for us today. My world has been plundered, O my dear ones, where are you?

Jis Ko Mehmil Me Saja Ker, Laye The Me Hun Wo Zainab Apni Nigrani Me Rakh Ker, Laye The Me Hun Wo Zainab Aj Tanha, Hogayi He, Aye Azeezo Tum Kahan Ho

I am that same Zainab whom you brought, adorned in a litter. I am that same Zainab whom you brought under your protection. Today she has become alone, O my dear ones, where are you?

Jis Ka Abbas Sa Bhai, Ho Use Gham Kyu Rulaye Meri Ummeedun Pe Pani, Kon Hoga Jo Phiraye Ab Qayamt, Agai He, Ay Azeezo Tum Kahan Ho

Why should she weep in sorrow, she who had a brother like Abbas? Who will be the one to pour water over my hopes (to extinguish them)? Now the Day of Judgment has arrived, O my dear ones, where are you?

Aale Ahmed Seh Na Pa Yenge Sitam Ke Taziyany Phool Say Chehrun Pay Parhtay, Shimr Ke He Wo Tamanchay Be Basi Ab, Cha Gai He, Aye Azeezo Tum Kahan Ho

The family of Ahmed will not be able to endure the lashes of tyranny. Shimr's slaps are landing on flower-like faces. Helplessness has now taken over, O my dear ones, where are you?

Mery Baba Mery Baba, Shimr Mujh Ko He Darata Sooye Maqtal Ro Ke Deti, He Sada Meri Sakina Khak Pe So, Na Saki He, Aye Azeezo Tum Kahan Ho

My father, my father, Shimr is frightening me. Weeping towards the battlefield, my Sakina gives this call. She has not been able to sleep on the dust, O my dear ones, where are you?

Be Kajawa Untun Pe He, Aal E Taha Wa Hussaina Hath Bande Qaid Ho Ker, Jarhey Hain Wa Ghareeba Aj Zahra, Ro Rahi He, Aye Azeezo Tum Kahan Ho

The family of Taha and Hussain are on camels without litters. With hands bound in captivity, they are going, alas for the strangers. Today Zahra is weeping, O my dear ones, where are you?

Jaisay Maqtal Aya Shahid, Khud Ko Bibi Ny Giraya Ro Ke Moshi, Bint E Zahra, Nay Ye Maqtal Me Pukara Dekh Zainab, Agai He, Aye Azeezo Tum Kahan Ho

As Shahid reached the battlefield, the Bibi threw herself down. Weeping in silence, the daughter of Zahra called out in the battlefield: Look, Zainab has arrived, O my dear ones, where are you?
