It took a very long time to gather up the strength to dig the grave of (Hazrat Ali) Asghar (AS)(because it’s hard for a father to say goodbye to a 6 month old martyred son)
Sheh ko ek chand chupane may bahot dayr lagi
It took a King (Imam Hussain AS) a very long time to cover an illuminating moon (Hazrat Ali Asghar AS)
Kuch qadam door hai bazaar se darbar magar
The court (in the castle of Yazid in Damascus) is just a few steps away from the open air market but
Phir bhi Shehzadi ko aane may bahot dayr lagi
It still took a Princess (Bibi Zainab SA) to get (to the court from the market) a painfully long amount of time (because of the parading amongst the hostile populace of Damascus)
Qabr e Asghar ki banane may bahot dayr lagi
It took a very long time to gather up the strength to dig the grave of (Hazrat Ali) Asghar (AS)
Sheh ne har laash ko jaldi se uthaya lekin (x2)
The King (Imam Hussain AS) picked up the corpses for all other martyrs quickly but
Laash e Akbar ki uthane may bahot dayr lagi
It took him a very long time with (Hazrat Ali) Akbar (AS) (son of Imam Hussain AS who resembled The Prophet SAW)
Qabr e Asghar ki banane may bahot dayr lagi
It took a very long time to gather up the strength to dig the grave of (Hazrat Ali) Asghar (AS)
Tukre chunte hue Qasim ke kaha Maula ne
Whilst picking up the pieces of (Hazrat) (AS) Qasim’s body (he was deliberately trampled by Yazid’s cavalry - repeatedly), Master said:
Haaye afsos ke aane may bahot dayr lagi
I am devastated it took me so long to get to you (a reference to Yazid’s forces that tried to physically block Imam Hussain AS from reaching Hazrat Qasim AS)
Qabr e Asghar ki banane may bahot dayr lagi
It took a very long time to gather up the strength to dig the grave of (Hazrat Ali) Asghar (AS)
Haa is qadar pyas se sookha tha guluay Sarwar (x2)
Imam (AS) Hussain’s throat was arid, due to thirst, to such a high extent
Shimr ko taygh chalane may bahot dayr lagi
that it took Shimr a very long time to run his dagger (on (AS) Imam Hussain’s neck!)
Qabr e Asghar ki banane may bahot dayr lagi
It took a very long time to gather up the strength to dig the grave of (Hazrat Ali) Asghar (AS)
Karbala jaake Takallum ne yehi poocha tha
When Takallum (the author of this Marthiya/Marsiya) went to Karbala he asked
Mujko Sarkar bulane may bahot dayr lagi
Did it take me too long to call you my Master?
Qabr e Asghar ki banane may bahot dayr lagi
It took a very long time to gather up the strength to dig the grave of (Hazrat Ali) Asghar (AS)
