How do I give ghusl to your body?
Ya Abi, Ya Naqi, Ya Abi x2
How do I give ghusl to your body?
Ya Abi, Ya Naqi, Ya Abi x2

17 years you”d spent imparting education
17 years you”d spent locked up in a prison
17 years of pain, insults, and no freedom
17 years of disrespect from all near ones.

I remember clearly Mutawakkil”s reign
How he made you go through so much pain
My dear father, now you lie here breathless
Tell me how do I go through so much pain?

When Mo”taz”s poison ran through your body
I felt breathless with you jerking before me
Every shake, shiver, and sob gutted me
How satanic and evil he could be.

My tears fall not because you are not with me
These-tears remember your love and care for me
How do I keep aside my childhood memories?
Your teachings are engraved all over me.
