Alama Iqbal (r.a) Praising Hazrat Sayedatun Nisa faTima uZ Zehra (salaamullah alaihaa)

Maryam az yek nisbat-e-Eesa azeez, As seh nisbat hazrat-e-Zahra azeez
 Maryam is honourable only because she is the mother of Jesus, (Look at Zahra Her honour comes from three relationships
 Noor-e-chashm-eRahmat-il-lil ‘aalemin Un imam-e-awwalin-o-aahirin
 She is the daughter of the person known as Rahmatal-lil aalameen Who is Imam of all the (prophets) in the past and allthe leaders in the future
 Un ke jan dar payka-e-geeti dameed Rozgaar-e-taazaaa’in aafreed
 He, who revived a dead society back to life, And brought a new system of law
 Baanu-e un taajdaar-e-hal ata Murtaza mushkil kusha sher-e-xuda
 She is the wife of the one who was crowned with Hal Ata [1] He is the chosen one, solver of all problems, the lion of God
Paadshhah-o-kulba’ee aywaan-e-oo Yek hussam-o-yek zirh saamaan-e-oo
 He was a king but lived in a hut, All he owned was a sword and a coat of chain
Maadar-e-un markaz-e-parkaar-e-ishq Maadar-e-un kaarwan saalaar-e-ishq Her son was the center of Love and devotion He was the chief of the army of Love
Un yeki sham’e shabistaan-e-haram Hafiz-e-jamee’at-e khayrul-umam
He was a burning light in the gathering in the HARAM, He was the protector of the best of the communities Taa nasheenad aatash-e-paykaar-o-kin Pusht-epa zad ba sar-e-taaj-o-nagin
He kicked the throne and the crown aside[4], Only because he did not want to see the fire of killing and hatred
Wan digar mawlaa-e abraar-e-jahaan Quwwat-e baazu-e-ahraar-e-jahaan
And the other son (of hers) is the leader of the pious He gave strength to all the revolutionariesof the world Dar nawaa-e-zindagisoz az Husayn Ahl-e-haq hurriyat amoz az Husayn
 Husayn gives passion to the ode of humanity The truthful people learned the lesson of freedom from Husayn Seerat-e-farzandaha az ummahaat Jawhar-e-sidq-o-safa az ummahaat
The character of sons are built by their mothers The true mettle of truthfulness and honesty come from the mothers
Muzra-e-tasleemra haasil Butool Maadaraan ra uswa-e-kaamil Butool
Butool was the epitome of the devotion to Allah For mothers she is a guiding example
Bahr-e-muhtaaj-e dilash un guna sooht Ba yahoodai chaadar-e-khud ra farooht
Her heart was so overwhelmed by the plight of the poor, That she sold her own chadar to a Jew
 Noori-o wa ham atashi farmanbarash Gum razaayesh dar razaa-e shawharash
Both angels and Jinn are in her obedience, (Because) she was obedient to her own husband
Un adab parawarda-e sabr-o-raza Aasiya gardaan-o-lab Qur’an sara
She was raised with SABR and submission Her lips would be reading Qur’an while her hands would be moving the hand mill
 Girya haaye u ze baalin bai niyaaz Gawhar afshandai badamaan-e-namaaz
She wept for fear of Allah She shed tears during her prayers
Asahk-e-oo bar cheed Jibreel az zamin Hamchu shabnam reext bar arsh-e-barin
Jibreel would pick up her tears from the earth So that he may spread dew-drops in Jannah
 Rishta-e aa’een-e haq zanjeer-e-pa ast Paas-e-farmaan-e Janaab-e Mustafa ast
 I am bound by the law of Islam, I am beholden to the sayings of the Prophet
Warna gird-e-turbat-ash gardeed mi Sajdaha bar khaak-e-oo pasheed mi
 Otherwise, I would have gone round and round her gravesite, And I would have done sajdah on her grave
