Translation by Moammad Shakeel Qdir Riaw


Gardens of Jannah await those who Praise the Ahle Bayt,
Tidings of fire for you, O. enemies of the Ahle Bayt.
How does one explain the magnificence of the Ahle Bayt?
The ones who praise The Most Beloved , are the ones who praise the
Ahle Bayt.
Allah Almighty mentions their purity in the Qur'aan,
Its clear from the Aayah e Tatheer, the purity of the Ahle Bayt.
The Most Beloved honours you, to increase your respect,
How exalted is your status O family of the Ahle Bayt.
Jibreel e Ameen does not enter their house without permission,
The prestigious know the prestige and status of the Ahle Bayt.
The Most Beloved is buying, The Almighty is selling,
Trade is thriving in this caravan of the Ahle Bayt.
The Battlefield has become a display of love and beauty,
They are being tested in Karbalaa, the Ahle Bayt.
The breeze spreads flowers of wounds,
The rose-garden is watered with the blood of the Ahle Bayt.
The hoors adorn themselves as brides of martyrdom,
As today, the grooms are the youth of the Ahle Bayt.
The sighting for Eid is done, by the sight of dripping swords,
They break their fasts, the fasting Ahle Bayt.

It is Friday and with their books of life perfected,

They are ready to lay down their lives, these Princes of the Ahle Bayt.
Oh roses of youth, what is this breeze?
That is cutting down the flourishing garden of the Ahle Bayt?
Who is this oppressor? Oh what darkness,
In broad daylight, the looting of the caravan of the Ahle Bayt.
Become dry, by becoming nothing, turn to dust, O. Euphrates
Shame on you, do you not see the dry tongues of the Ahle Bayt?
Uthman and Abbaas the Flag holders are on the ground,
Oh helplessness, who will now carry the flag of the Ahle Bayt?
Even animals quench their thirst with water,
But from thirst writhe, the speechless from the Ahle Bayt.
The commanders of the Caravan are heading for the destination leaving
behind,
Heirs of the heirless, the caravan of the Ahle Bayt.
It is the last Sighting of Sayyidah Fatimah's Beloved,
The commotion of Judgement Day, in the middle of the Ahle Bayt.
The bridegroom announces, as he departs
Accept my final greetings O widows of the Ahle Bayt
May the skies fall onto the armies of the enemy,
Sayyidah Fatimahs moon is the Shining sun of the Ahle Bayt.

What joy is this that they experience, from the refreshing sword
Bloody and dusty they return, the thirstful of the Ahle Bayt.

The Most Beloved himself has come, leaving the gardens of Jannah
The greatest of fortunes, Oh martyred ones from the Ahle Bayt.
Open haired, and bare headed the Hoors have come out,
Today, what a calamity befalls the Ahle Bayt.
Why should anyone ask another? Who cares, O helplessness?
How is the ill one today, from amongst the Ahle Bayt?
Sacrificing ones household and life, should be learnt from you,
May the whole world be sacrificed for you, O family of the Ahle Bayt.
The heads of the martyrs of love, are aloft on spears,
Allah Almighty has raised much higher the exalted status of the Ahle
Bayt.
They achieved the Blessed sight by selling their lives,
How it shone in Karbalaa, this market of the Ahle Bayt.
Wounds for food, water from swords for drinking,
What a meal they served, the enemies of the Ahle Bayt.
By selling their stock, they left the market deserted,
What a settlement they inhabited, these traders of the Ahle Bayt.
The Ahle Bayt are pure, how dare you show disrespect and insolence
towards them?
May The curse of Allah be upon you O enemies of the Ahle Bayt.
O. Hassan: announce this, to all the disrespectful sects,
This is how the Sunnis, tell the story of the Ahle Bayt.
