With English translation
داري خاليه من ظلهاMy home is empty of her shadow.
روحي خاليه من روحهاMy soul is empty of her spirit.
مالي مؤنس من بعدهاI have no companion after her.
سري مودع في قبرهاMy secret is entrusted to her grave.
من دون فاطمة لا قلب يخفق من بعد نورهاWithout Fatimah, no heart beats after her light.
لا شمس تشرق من دون فاطمةNo sun rises without Fatimah.
على قلب يخفق من بعد نورهاUpon a heart that beats after her light.
لا شمس تشرقNo sun rises.
من كانت تداوي غربتي وأحزانيShe who used to heal my loneliness and sorrows.
من كنت أشكو إليها غدر زمانيShe to whom I used to complain about the treachery of my time.
تكفيني هموم ظلمهم بتحنانيHer tenderness was enough for me against the worries of their oppression.
وتحمل همهاAnd she carried her worries.
يا فاطمة يا فاطمة يا فاطمة يا فاطمةO Fatimah, O Fatimah, O Fatimah, O Fatimah!
يا فاطمة يا فاطمة يا فاطمةO Fatimah, O Fatimah, O Fatimah!
يا يتيمك عليO Ali, your orphan!
يومان هما بعد النبيTwo days after the Prophet.
كنت جالسا في دارهاI was sitting in her house.
لما أوقدوا النار بهاWhen they lit the fire in it.
مأمورا بصبر الأنبياء في الدارOrdered to have the patience of the prophets in the house.
فاطمةFatimah!
فأجابها و فسمعت دفعةSo she answered him, and I heard a push.
وسمعتها في الدار فاطمةAnd I heard her in the house, Fatimah.
فأجابها و فسمعت دفعةSo she answered him, and I heard a push.
وسمعت أتتAnd I heard her come.
جاءوها ولم يرع حرمة الدارThey came to her and did not respect the sanctity of the house.
نادتني بالباب أدركني يا كرارShe called me at the door, "Help me, O Karrar!"
يا زينب بصدر ألف مسمارO Zaynab, with a chest of a thousand nails!
سمعتها تزعI heard her scream.
هذه العيون فداك يا عليThese eyes are sacrificed for you, O Ali!
كسر الضلوع فداك يا عليThe breaking of the ribs is sacrificed for you, O Ali!
والمحسن فداك يا فاطمةAnd Muhsin is sacrificed for you, O Fatimah!
يا فاطمه يا فاطمه يا فاطمه يا فاطمه يتيمك عليO Fatimah, O Fatimah, O Fatimah, O Fatimah, your orphan is Ali.
لم اهزم وسيفي المعون في بدر واحد وحنينI was not defeated, and my sword was victorious in Badr, Uhud, and Hunayn.
لم اهزم وسيفي المعون في بدر واحد وحنينI was not defeated, and my sword was victorious in Badr, Uhud, and Hunayn.
لكني يحزن حينما لمع الشوق في عين الحسينBut I grieve when longing gleamed in the eyes of Husayn.
يحن بدمعه بحجر يجلس اشتاق صوتها بالقربHe yearns with tears, sitting on a stone, longing for her voice nearby.
يحن بدمعه بحجر يجلس اشتاق صوتها بالقرب تهمسHe yearns with tears, sitting on a stone, longing for her voice whispering nearby.
اتلوا لي لكي انام سوره القدرRecite for me Surah Al-Qadr so I may sleep.
سارت بي عن كربلاء العشق والنحر عن زينب ومعدن التوحيد والصبرShe told me about Karbala, the land of love and sacrifice, about Zaynab, the essence of monotheism and patience.
وعن ابي الفضل من بالسقاء من بالعيون من بالكفوفAnd about Abu al-Fadl, who carried the water-skin, who had the eyes, who had the hands.
يا جو يا فاطمه Ya de mi corazón.O Jaw, O Fatimah, from my heart.
