Keeping screen awake…
maula haq imam ya hassan ya hussain
O Master, the rightful Imams, O Hassan (as), O Husayn (as)!
wo abide bemaar tha chalne se jo lachaar tha
aur shaam ka bazaar tha aur mustufa ki betiyan
maula haq imam…
There was that ailing Sajjad (as), who was unable to walk…
And there was the marketplace of Shaam, where the daughters of the Prophet Mustafa (pbuh) were present.
O Master, the rightful Imams, O Hassan (as), O Husayn (as)!
shabbir ki wo laadli seene pe wo shah ke pali
jiski aba ban mein jali moo pe tamachon ke nishan
maula haq imam…
Husayn's (as) beloved daughter, who grew up cradled on her father's (as) chest…
Whose cloak was burned in the wilderness, and whose face bore the marks of slaps.
O Master, the rightful Imams, O Hassan (as), O Husayn (as)!
pyase galay khanjar chale chadar chini qaime jale
abbas ke parcham talay rokar kahe ye bibiyan
maula haq imam…
Thirsty throats were cut by daggers, head coverings were snatched, and tents were burned.
Under Abbas's (as) flag, the ladies cried out, saying…
O Master, the rightful Imams, O Hassan (as), O Husayn (as)!
ro kar kahe qasim ki maa maara gaya qasim jawan
ay laal mai dhoondu kahan mehendi teri sehra tera
maula haq imam…
Qasim's (as) mother cried out, saying, "My young Qasim (as) has been killed!"
"O my beloved son, where can I find your henna and your bridal wreath?"

wo asghar e baysheer tha aur hurmala ka teer tha
pyasa gala kyunkar kata larzi zameen aur aasmaan
maula haq imam…
There was Ali Asghar (as), the suckling infant, and Hurmala's arrow.
How could such a thirsty throat be cut? The earth and sky trembled!
O Master, the rightful Imams, O Hassan (as), O Husayn (as)!
shaam e ghariban cha gayi abid ko ghairat aagayi
pehre pe zainab aagayi abbas aur akbar kahan
maula haq imam…
The eve of desolation descended, and Sajjad (as) was overcome with protective zeal.
Zaynab (as) came to stand guard… "Where are Abbas (as) and Ali Akbar (as)?"
O Master, the rightful Imams, O Hassan (as), O Husayn (as)!
wo zainab o kulsooom thi chadar se jo mehroom thi
na mehramon ke darmiyan aur murtaza ki betiyan
maula haq imam…

wo bawafa abbas tha dukhiya dilon ki aas tha
pani mila par na piya pyasi rahi shehzadiyan
maula haq imam…
There was the loyal Abbas (as), the hope of sorrowful hearts.
He found water but did not drink it; the princesses remained thirsty.
O Master, the rightful Imams, O Hassan (as), O Husayn (as)!
