: On the plains of Kerbala, Rose the daughters of Zehra
On
the plains of Kerbala
Rose
the daughters of Zehra (2)
Zainab
umme Kultum
sisters
of Imam mazloom
how
they saw all who had died
they
weren't allowed to cry
as
they raised their head on spears
they
wept their silent tears
On
the plains of Kerbala
Rose
the daughters of Zehra (2)
Abbas
where do you lie
Shimr's
making Sakina cry
He's
slapping her on her face
her
honour he wants to disgrace
what
a price for saving Islam
to
ensure it come to no harm
On
the plains of Kerbala
Rose
the daughters of Zehra (2)
Asghar
your cradle's no more
Even
to them we did implore
That
all we have of poor Asghar
Have
some pity on his poor old mother
how
her heart it must've gave
when
they plucked you from your grave
On
the plains of Kerbala
Rose
the daughters of Zehra (2)
Abid
is bound in chains
Even
though he's full of pains
Witnessed
the massacre
And
the showings of Zainab's hair
As
he stands there all alone
No
mercy to him shown
On
the plains of Kerbala
Rose
the daughters of Zehra (2)

: Assalaam o alaikya ya wali Allah
Assalaam
o alaikya ya wali Allah
Assalaam
o alaikya ya hujjatullah
Assalaam
o alaikya ya Ameerul Mo'meneen (2)
A
guest you were in the house of Allah
Awoke
in the arms of Musttafa
Spoke
from the Injeel, Taurat and Qur'an
For
you are indeed the Qull-e-Imaan
And
you sold your soul in the way of Allah
As
you rid the kuffar with your Zulfiqar
Assalaam
o alaikya ya wali Allah
Assalaam
o alaikya ya hujjatullah
Assalaam
o alaikya ya Ameerul Mo'meneen (2)
Supported
Mustafa at the grand banquet
In
the battle of Ohud you didn't quit
Running
from the battle is unknown to you
Without
Ali what would the Muslims do
Badr
Khyber became all your gains
In
the name of Allah you suffered all the pain
Assalaam
o alaikya ya wali Allah
Assalaam
o alaikya ya hujjatullah
Assalaam
o alaikya ya Ameerul Mo'meneen (2)
Breathed
his last in your lap did Holy Mustafa
Cradled
the painful body of sweet Zehra
You
were left on your own oh ya Ali
Remained
for the oppressed their only wali
Guardian
of the Truth and of Al Islam
Sacrificed
your rights so it came to no harm
Assalaam
o alaikya ya wali Allah
Assalaam
o alaikya ya hujjatullah
Assalaam
o alaikya ya Ameerul Mo'meneen (2)
Ghadeer
became a distant memory
As
they robbed you of your rights on the death-bed of Nabi
entertained you with
steel chains round your neck
For
on the Qur'an they did turn their back
And
they threatened to burn your house oh ya Ali
The
house that was once the house of Nabi
Assalaam
o alaikya ya wali Allah
Assalaam
o alaikya ya hujjatullah
Assalaam
o alaikya ya Ameerul Mo'meneen (2)
As
the years have passed the Ummah in misery
Until
there comes a man by the name of Al Mahdi
Around
the flag of Islam up high in the sky
A
whole generation will become ready to die
To
establish the deen of Mustafa
in
the way of Holy Murtaza
Assalaam
o alaikya ya wali Allah
Assalaam
o alaikya ya hujjatullah
Assalaam
o alaikya ya Ameerul Mo'meneen (2)

: Ya Allah may we never see, how they treated the daughters of
Ali
Ya
Allah may we never see
How
they treated the daughters of Ali (2)
They
marched them from town to town
The
Ummah on them did frown
These
blessed daughters of Zehra
Looted
in Ker-bo-balah
Not
a soul felt any shame
Their
honour for them was game
Ya
Allah may we never see
How
they treated the daughters of Ali (2)
How
Sajjad had to bear the pain
Of
Zainab being bound in chains
Sakina's
cheeks kissed by Hussain
Were
struck by Shimr's cane
Oh
Abbas where do you lie
For
water the children still cry
Ya
Allah may we never see
How
they treated the daughters of Ali (2)
They
made her stand for hours on end
Like
Zehra Islam she did defend
The
playing with the lips of Hussain
Did
surely cause Zainab pain
Sakina
lays dead without rest
How
she longed for her father's chest
Ya
Allah may we never see
How
they treated the daughters of Ali (2)

Killing

Allah
O Akbar
My
beloved Akbar (2)
When
they raise your head on a spear in Shaam
The
scene you will see will cause you harm
No
hijab will there be on Zainab's head
No
one will recognize the daughters of Ahmed
Be
sure to close your eyes
Be
sure to close your eyes
Zainab's
honour they will try to excise
Allah
O Akbar
My
beloved Akbar (2)
Go

: Come back to me Oh Ali Asghar
Come
back to me Oh Ali Asghar
I'll
sing you a lullaby
Why
did you fire the arrow Hurmala
Why
O why
Did
you fire the arrow Hurmala (2)
Few
drops of water you needed
How
with them your father pleaded
Not
a heart was amongst those treacherous souls
Bags
of gold and silver were their goals
How
your Laila must've cried
when
she saw how you died
and
cursed your killer's faces
Why
did you fire the arrow Hurmala
Why
O why
Did
you fire the arrow Hurmala
Come
back to me Oh Ali Asghar
I'll
sing you a lullaby
Why
did you fire the arrow Hurmala
Why
O why
Did
you fire the arrow Hurmala
Sughra
is waiting and praying
In
Medina with her you'll be playing
How
is she to come to know
Oh
Asghar you are no more
To
see you she's so keen
She's
kept your cradle clean
She's
expecting you in Medinah
Why
did you fire the arrow Hurmala
Why
O why
Did
you fire the arrow Hurmala
Come
back to me Oh Ali Asghar
I'll
sing you a lullaby
Why
did you fire the arrow Hurmala
Why
O why
Did
you fire the arrow Hurmala
Three
days of hunger and thirsty
What
was the fault of this baby
Life
for him had just begun
Oh
Asghar what have they done
They
pierced your neck
And
your body ransacked
As
you lay in your grave in the sand
Why
did you fire the arrow Hurmala
Why
O why
Did
you fire the arrow Hurmala
Come
back to me Oh Ali Asghar
I'll
sing you a lullaby
Why
did you fire the arrow Hurmala
Why
O why
Did
you fire the arrow Hurmala (2)

you did onto Kerbala

the command of Allah
Sacrificed
all you had
Cut

Yet

Rather
that they would be killed
Carried
their heads on spears
We
remember them in our tears
Saviour
of Islam is Hussain
Saviour

Zainab
your going to Shaam
Does
surely cause us harm
How

Didn't
pay him any heed
Taught
the message of Kerbala
Labbaik

: On the pieces of Qasim cried bano
On
the pieces of Qasim cried bano
Ya
ilahee ilahee ilahee (2)
Oh
beloved dearest Qasim
Oh
light and purest of Hassan
Beauty
you had like the full moon
Till
you rode out to your doom
Such
innocence no one had for sure
Oh
Qasim why can't I see you any more
On
the pieces of Qasim cried bano
Ya
ilahee ilahee ilahee (2)
Came
to be you the groom of Kerbala
Oh
radiant sign of Mujtaba
What
reception you had for your wedding
Caused
the people of Kufa to come and bring
Tears
of arrows and spears for you
Oh
Qasim where are you where are you
On
the pieces of Qasim cried bano
Ya
ilahee ilahee ilahee (2)
Boy
soldier of Hussain's army
The
heart beat you were of so many
So
keen you were to sacrifice
You're
the twinkle in Hussain's eyes
Didn't
spare you the forces of the enemy
Horses
galloped on your hungry body
On
the pieces of Qasim cried bano
Ya
ilahee ilahee ilahee (2)

: Abbas is no more
Abbas
is no more my dear Zainab
Abbas
is no more my dear Zainab (2)
He
now lies in a pool of blood
His
promise he wanted to make good
You'll
be marched off without your hijab
Shimr
will ransack your garb Zainab
Abbas
is no more my dear Zainab
Abbas
is no more my dear Zainab (2)
Desperate
to end the children's thirst
For
him servitude was a must
How
he fell from his horse Allah knows
But
his fall will surely your hair expose Zainab
Abbas
is no more my dear Zainab
Abbas
is no more my dear Zainab (2)
From
today I've lost the will in my back
Shortly
they will my body ransack
They'll
cut off my head and hold it high
Abbas
where are you why did you die Zainab
Abbas
is no more my dear Zainab
Abbas
is no more my dear Zainab (2)

Hussian's
naked body in the sun did lay
Labbaik
Ya Allah
Every
blessed day is Ashura
Every
land and place is Kerbala
Labbaik
Ya Allah (2)
Amr

Slain

Every
land and place is Kerbala
Labbaik
Ya Allah (2)
