Jab poochta tha, Aabid(a.s) say koi
Beemar zara, Ehwaal suna
Kaha(n) sab say ziyaada dukh daikhay,
Sajjad(a.s) yeh ro kar farmaatay

(Shaam haaye shaam, Shaam haaye shaam) x2

1. Aay Shah kay pisar,aay khasta jigar
   Baqar(a.s) kay Pidar, yeh baat bata
   kaha(n) dafan Sakeena(a.s) ki tum nay
   ghayyoor yeh rokar farmaatay

(Shaam haaye shaam, Shaam haaye shaam) x2

2. Mazloom-e-jafa, lab khol zara
   Iss uljhan ki, ub khol girha
   kaha(n) chacha ghaazi(a.s) yaad aayay
   sarkaar yeh ro kar farmaatay

(Shaam haaye shaam, Shaam haaye shaam) x2

3. Sultaan-e-aman, aay shah-e- zaman,
   aay khasta sukhan, kuch bol zara
   kaha(n) patthro(n) ki barsaat hui
   mazloom yeh rokar farmaatay

(Shaam haaye shaam, Shaam haaye shaam) x2

4. Farzand-e-Ali(a.s) , aay noor-e nabi
   sakhiyon kay sakhi, kuch to farma
   kaha(n) chaadar maangi Zainab(a.s) nay
   salaar yeh ro kar farmaatay

(Shaam haaye shaam, Shaam haaye shaam) x2
