Yeh Kehti thi Sakina, Abbas nahi aaye

Pani ke liye theri, Abbas nahi aaye

This was Sakina’s lamentation – Abbas didn’t return

She was left waiting for water – Abbas didn’t return

Dekha na alam aaya, Ummid thi ye dil meri

Pilwaaungi in sab ko, Abbas nahi aaye

The alam never came back, those were the hopes in my heart

I would quench all the children’s thirst – Abbas didn’t return

Babaa ki qamar tooti, kya wahja ye na samji

Dekha ke alam aaya, Abbas nahi aaye

Her fathers back broke and she didn’t understand why

She saw him bring back the alam – Abbas didn’t return

Shanon se juda aaya, Do haath yeh tumhare

Ran mei padi hai masq, Abbas nahi aaye

The enemies severed both your arms

The waterbad lies in the battlefield – Abbas didn’t return

Roro ke poochti thi, Bali sakina sab ko

Baba to alam laaye, Abbas nahi aaye

Sakina was crying while asking everyone

My father brought the alam, Abbas didn’t return
