Pardes mein Zainab kho baithi
Pardes mein Zainab kho baithi
athara baras ke paale ko
Rotey hai khade sab aale nabi
athara baras ke paale ko
Armaan na nikla Bano ka
hae laash pah nauha Bano ka
Payegi kahan yeh kookh jali
athara baras ke paale ko
Dil thaam ke Akbar ki maadar
kehti hae yeh Sarwar se rokar
Kho aaye kahan aye ibne Ali
athara baras ke paale ko
Naazon se muraadon se paala
shaadi ka zamana jab aaya
Maidaan mein khokar baith gayi
athara baras ke paale ko
Shabbir se kehti hae Zainab
mujh ko toh bada hae iska taa-ab
Kyon maine liya tha tumse aqi
athara baras ke paale ko
Qismat ka karoon main kis se gila
khidmath ka ewaz kuch bhi na mila
Sehra bhi na Zainab baandh saki
athara baras ke paale ko
Kehte thay yeh shahe Karbobala
taqdeer mein yoonhi likha tha
Ab sabr karo aye binte Ali
athara baras ke paale ko
Showkat pah qayamat ka gham hae
Showkat yeh ghazab ka maatam hae
Baaleen pah khade rotey hain nabi
athara baras ke paale ko
