1. Have you shed tears, crying with sobs,
And crying at night, enduring sighs?

2. You cry for the Family of Muhammad,
With a heart tightened by grief.

3. Oh yes, cry for them sincerely and be rewarded,
With eyes pouring for the calamities of fate.

4. And do not forget their afflictions on the day of Ghadeer,
And the immense tragedy among the greatest tragedies.

5. Allah watered the land of Karbala,
With heavy rains of sorrows.

6. And pray upon the soul and body of Hussein,
Lying slain in the desert by the two rivers.

7. Killed unjustly, calling out for help,
Alone and friendless, "Where are my supporters?"

8. Can I forget, and here is the river overflowing thirsty,
For a slain and oppressed man without guilt?

9. They raised the head of Hussein on a spear,
And drove his women captives, crying and wailing.

10. So say to the son of Saad, may Allah torment his soul,
He will suffer the punishment of hellfire and curses.

11. I will pray forever as long as the wind blows,
And pray at dawn and dusk.

12. For the group who all went astray from guidance,
And threw the Messenger of Allah into afflictions.
