Zainab pa huva khaatema har ranj-o-balaa ka
Maatam kiya pehlay toh Rasool-e-doh saraa ka
Phir gham huva darpeish Batool-e-Uzara ka
Dekha sar-e-aaloodh ba-khoon Sher-e-Khuda ka
Woh khasthaa jigar Shabbar-e-dilgeer ko royeen
Phir baad-e-Hasan Hazrath-e-Shabbir ko royeen
Tiflee hi sey Zainab pah museebath huvi kya kya
Naana kay liye royi kiya maatam-e-Zehra
Aur Mohsin-e-maasoom kay bhi laashey ko dekha
Yeh daagh na bhooli thi kay zakhmi huva baba
Tukkdeh jigar-e-Syed-e-masmoom ko dekha
Phir teigh kay neechey Shahey mazloom ko dekha
Alqissa kay Zainab ko sadaa bhaayi ki thi yaad
Tha dushman-e-Abid jo yazeed-e-sitam eejaad
Guzri yeh qabar usko kay kya bhaitta hai dilshaad
Ijmaah hai shiyoun ka payeh yaari-e-Sajjad
Waaris hai woh teigh-e-kamar shair-e-Khuda ka
Ab tujh sey aiwaz leyga woh khoon-e-Shohada ka
Yeh sunkay diya hukm shaqi ney sar-e-darbaar
Abid ko giraftaar karein jaakay kuch aswaar
Zanjeer bhi aur tauq bhi bhaari saa ho taiyaar
Lo ab qisaas-e-Shohadaa ka hai talabgaar
Kis baat pah magroor woh ibne Shahey deen hai
Kya pehli aseeri ka mazaa yaad nahin hai
Baazu mein rasan baandhi thi aur paaoon mein zanjeer
Abid yehi kehthay thay kay kya hai meri taqseer
Woh kehthay thay yaan poocho na aye naaeb-e-Shabbir
Ab Shaam mein ho jaayegi jo honi hai taqdeer
Abid ney kaha khair chalo darr mujhey kya hai
Mazloom ka farzand toh raazi ba riza hai
Abid ka sukhan koyi bhi khaatir mein na laaya
Naaqey pa usi shakl sey beykas ko bitthaaya
Aur rokay zann-o-mard ney ek shor machaaya
Naagah yeh ek shaqs ney Abid ko sunaaya
Kya baittey ho naaqey pa zaraa dekho udhar ko
Hamsheer-e-Hussain aathi hai kholey huvey sar ko
Ya Rabb mujhey us shaher ko ab tu na dikhaana
Sar nangay phir us mulk mein mujhko na phiraana
Hai yaad mujhey Shaam ka woh ranj utthaana
Humraah sar-e-Sheh kay huva tha mera aana
Ab peish-e-nazar bhaayi ki tasveer nahin hai
Aayi hoon main tanhaa sar-e-Shabbir nahin hai
Us raat ko Zainab rahi mashghool-e-munajaat
Naagah saher-e-kooch numayaan huvi haihaath
Sajjad ney Zainab sey yeh ro ro kay kahi baat
Lo bhaayi sey tum apney karo aaj mulaaqaath
Kis dard sey kal aap thee mashghool dua mein
Maqbool dua hogayi dargaah-e-Khuda mein
