Wa muhamada wa musibata panjatan ka aj khatema huwa

O Muhammad, what a tragedy – today the last member of the panjtan has been killed

Sar hai peet thi, Fatema khari, Nikle khuld sai, Hayder-o-Ali, 

Jibraeel ka hai, sar khula huwa, panjatan ka khatima huwa

Fatima is weeping, Imam Ali too is in mourning. 

Jibraeel is beating his head – today the last member of the panjtan has been killed

Hilti hai zameen, aandhi hai chali, Zainab-e-hazeen, roti hai khari, 

Shimr-e-rusiya hai, kaat ta gala, panjatan ka khatima huwa

The earth is shaking, a storm has begun – Zainab is watching in tears

Shimr the cursed is beheading the Imam  – today the last member of the panjtan has been killed

Gul hai khaime mei, shor-o-shayn se, nikli bibiyan, aayi khaime se, 

Shor hai macha, wa musibata, panjatan ka khatima huwa

There is commotion in the tents, the ladies are running out to escape

They are calling out What a tragedy  – today the last member of the panjtan has been killed
