Teri Kayenat Mola, Na Libaas E Kun Pehenti, Gar Fatima Na Hoti

Your universe, O Lord, would not have worn the garment of 'Be' (Kun), had Fatima not been.

Kabhi Bazme Do Jahaa(n) Mein, Nah Ya Ki Baat Chalti, Gar Fatima Na Hoti

In the assembly of both worlds, the discourse of 'O' (Ya - invocation) would never have occurred, had Fatima not been.

Teri Lam Yalid Ki Baatein, Koi Maanta Bhi Kaise Tere Laa Ilaah Ki Hurmat, Koi Jaanta Bhi Kaise Jo Banaayi Tu Ne Duniya, Tujhe Kibriya Na Kehti, Gar Fatima Na Hoti

How would anyone have accepted the truth of Your 'He begets not' (Lam Yalid)? How would anyone have known the sanctity of Your 'There is no God' (Laa Ilaah)? The world You created would not have called You 'The Greatest' (Kibriya), had Fatima not been.

Ye Kalaam-E Paak Saara, Hai Manqabat Usi Ki Karta Hai Zikr Uska, Khud Sura E Nisa Bhi Tafseer Hal Ata Ki, Lafzo(n) Mein Kaise Dhalti, Gar Fatima Na Hoti

This entire Holy Scripture is a praise of her. Even the Surah An-Nisa mentions her. How would the interpretation of 'Hal Ata' (Surah Al-Insan) have been cast into words, had Fatima not been?

Tune Hi To Kaha Tha Ek Roz Mustafa Se Takhleeq E Do Jahaa(n) Hai, Mansoob Sayyada Se Main Kuch Nahi Banata, Haa(n) Nasl Mein Tumhari, Gar Fatima Na Hoti

You Yourself had said one day to Mustafa (Prophet Muhammad), 'The creation of both worlds is attributed to the Lady (Sayyada).' 'I would have created nothing, save for your lineage, had Fatima not been.'

Saqlain Mein Ali Ka, Koi Bhi Kuffo Nahi Tha Saara Jahaan Tera, Ya Rab Nusairi Hota Sach To Yahi Hai Ya Rab, Mola Ali Ki Biwi, Gar Fatima Na Hoti

In the two realms (mankind and jinn), there was no equal (Kuffo) for Ali. The entire world, O Lord, would have become Nusairi (deifying Ali). The truth is this, O Lord, that the wife of Master Ali would not have been, had Fatima not been.

Is Darja Paak Bibi, Dekhi Nahi Koi Bhi Duniya Ke Saamne Hai, Quraan Ki Gawahi Tatheer Ki Aayat, Kiske Liye Utarti, Gar Fatima Na Hoti

A Lady so pure, no one has ever seen. The testimony of the Quran is before the world. For whom would the Verse of Purification (Tatheer) have descended, had Fatima not been?

Ye Chaand Aur Sitaare, Ye Asmaa(n) Ye Dharti Ye Salsabeel Kausar, Jaageer Hai Usi Ki Kono Makaa(n) Pe Tere, Laa Waarasi Barasti, Gar Fatima Na Hoti

These moons and stars, this sky, this earth, This Salsabeel and Kausar (fountains of Paradise) are her inheritance. Upon Your entire creation, a sense of orphanhood would have rained down, had Fatima not been.

Dehleez E Panjatan Se, Nisbat Huwi Hai Jabse Mashhoor Ho Rahe Hai, Mere Kalaam Saare Yoo(n) Mazhar Abidi Ko, Shohrat Kabhi Na Milti, Gar Fatima Na Hoti

Ever since I have had a connection to the threshold of the Panjatan (the Five), All my verses have become famous. In this way, Mazhar Abidi would never have found fame, had Fatima not been.
