khanjare zulm liye shimre sitamgaar badha

di tarap kar dar-e-khaime se ye zainab ne sada

abhi khanjar na chala abhi khanjar na chala

zaalim abhi khajar na chala

1. Toot mat behre khuda fatima zehra ka chayn

aur kuch der teherja aray zaalim ke hussain

bakshishe ummate jad ki abhi kartey hai dua

abhi khanjar na chala...

2. Teen din hogaye pyasa hai nabi ka jani

zibha karna hai to do ghoont pilade pani

kund khanjar hai mere bhai ka sookha hai gala

abhi khanjar na chala...

3. Bosagaahe nabavi hai ye gala ay zaalim

sheh-rage deen pe khanjar na chala ay zaalim

choomte the isi halqoom ko mahboob e khuda

abhi khanjar na chala...

4. Chhod kar khuld zara fatahey khyber aalay

aur kuch dayr teher ja ke payambar aalay

aati hi hogi wo aa lene de amma ko zara

abhi khanjar na chala...

5. Kya karoon jau kahan kis ko pukaroon bhai

kaise dekhegi tumhein todte dam maa jaayi

ya ilahi mujhe shabbir se pehle le utha

abhi khanjar na chala...

6. Haye kis dil se karoon tazkiraye zoro jafa

kat gaya saamne zainab ke shahe deen ka gala

cheekhti reh gayi zainab sar e maqtal ba khuda

abhi khanjar na chala.
