Ya Zahra-u Ya Zahra Ya Zahra-u Ya Zahra
1.
You loved your father and took great care
Through trials and tribulations you were always there
When your mother left this world
Fatema you were so young
2.
As a wife you helped Ali,
The lion of Allah, his mission to achieve
You both are the pinnacle of purity
Worship and strength was your belief
3.
Tranquillity and generosity
In your house you concealed
By Allah’s pleasure to your family
Sura Dahr was revealed
4.
You brought up your children in the best of ways
Zainab, Kulthum and Hassanayn
For Islam they’re the shining rays
By example they lead the way
5.
You are a perfect example of how
A daughter, wife and mother should be
Your piety and pure character
Shows us how a woman should be
6.
Your purity, sanctity and divine knowledge
Has no measure Fatema
For Islam and the Prophet’s Ummah
You are the greatest treasure
Fatema binta-Rasul, Anti Fatemal Batul,
Hakadha Qaala-Rasul, Hubbu Fatemal Batul
