akhan khoon de neer uchaal diyan
karbal vich jhokan lutiyaan ne
zahra te ali de laal diyan

dil de soz de baaj nahi pata lagda
sunniye karbal da haal te ki hunda
puchcho dasvin muharaam da aashiqan nu
jadon aawe khayaal te ki hunda
godi baap de tadaf ke ik waari
ankhan meett laye baal te ki hunda
sayim puchcho muhammad nu vich karbal
maari jaawe je aal te ki hunda

sanu pata ki veer di laash jis dam
aake labhdi e bhain te ki hunda
dard mandan de dilan nu puch jaake
cham cham barsan je nain te ki hunda
pucho aabad nu ankhan de saamne je
kadiyan phuphi nu pain te ki hunda
puchcho zahra nu khanjar di dhaar thalle
jadon tadfe hussain te ki hunda

phat gaye jigar pahadan de vi kamb gaya jag saara
jad asghar de naazak halkon chchuteya khoon phwaara
sadke sabar tere ton sayim sayyid shah sawaara
jaan ditti par aan na diiti haider de dildaara

karbal vich jadd aal nabi di uthi bad kirdaaran
hooran tadfiyan jannat andar arsheen pain pukaaran
sayim tadaf ke aakhe zainab lai nana hun saaran
bagh ujaad ditta ajj tera ummat de badkirdaaran

tak veer nu de laashe tayin tadaf payi hamsheera
ik te gal akheeri kar lai bhain luti deya veera
bhain ghareeb diyan sadran mukkiyan mereya veera
gir gaye phul sehre da sayim khoon ch rangeya jheera

haider akbar te chal gayiyaan zulm diyan shamsheeran
odher bhain udeekan kardi khat nahi ghaleya veeran
haawaan maar ke royiyaan raahwan kamb diyan si zanjeeran
kaidi ho jad duniya sayim nabi diyan tasveeran

karbal vich jhokan luttiyan ne
zahra te ali de laal diyan

dil hileya arsh muallah da
aaya larzan nu bade khizran nu
kamb utheya roza zahra da
sun cheekan asghar baal diyan

hooran de athru dul gaye ne
atte dhaawan maariyan kursiyan ne
karbal vich laashan tadaf diyan
tak tak ke aseer di aal diyan

maqtal chon langdeyan zainab ne
keha laashe vekh shaheedan de
kithe chchup gayon mere chann veeran
tainu kehndi bhaina bhaal diyan

kidda kehar te zulm kamaaya e
lai akbar da laasha sayyid jad kheme wal aaya
asmaanan nu larza aaya malkan hosh wanjaaya
zainab bhain nu aake sayim sayyid ne farmaaya
lutt leya ajj bhaina tera kufiyan sab sarmaaya

cham cham khoon ankhan chon wagda dil tukde ho jaaye
karbal waale peer sachche di yaad jadon vi aawe
raati bhi zehra di sayim hanju payi wagawe
laashan nu payi waajan maare atte veer veer kurlaawe

sakhi hussain ne kam jo keeta kar nahi sakda koi
koi nahi royiyaan vichchdan lagiyan jehve dhee hussain di royi
veer jehde pardesi jaawan gham hijr da jaane soyi
sayim mehshar tak nayi bhulni jehdi karbal de vich hoyi

jad ton sayyid mazloom shaheed hoya
shafaq subah di ohde ton ratti ho gayi
panjtan paak de gushan e paak utte
meri oh challi patti patti ho gayi
jad akbar jawaan da khoon dulla
ret karbalan di hor tatti ho gayi
udhar zahra da bujheya chirag sayim
udharon gul si kufr di batti ho gayi

kidda kehar te zulm kamaaya e
ral mil ke koofe waleyan ne
sab kaliyan narm tharu sittiyan
panjtan de shajar de daal diyan

shabbeer de sar ne neze te
chad ke oh jalwa vekh leya
oh toor utte chehre jalwe nu
musa diyan galiyan bhaaldiyan

dil hileya arsh muallah da
aaya larzan nu ate hizran nu
kamb utheya roza zahra da
sunn cheekan asghar baal diyann

karbal vich tuttiyan hoyiyaan di
nayi yaad bhulaayan bhul sakdi
laye jaan muharram de das din
sab khushiyan poore saal diyan

maqtal chon langdeyan zainab ne
keha laashe dekh shaheedan de
kithe chchup gayon mere chann veeran
tainu kehndi bhaina bhaal diyan

je eh nahi qayaamat aye 'Sayim'
pher hor qayaamat kehdi e
ik mile na paani pyaseyan nu
ik dhuban khanga bhaal diyan

hooran de athru dul gaye ne
gali gali madine de cheekh uthi
jadon karbaal da shahsawaar tureya
eh te jigra hussain da hi jaande
kivein bachi nu deke pyar tureya
ghar nu chchadd ke koi ni inj tureya
maula ali da jivein dildaar tureya
sayim tadfeya jag si jadon sayim
chadre amma de hujre nu maar chaleya

hooran de athru dul gaye ne
sakhi hussain di dard kahaani
bhala koi sun sakke

hooran de athru dul gaye ne
atte dhaawan maariyan kursiyan ne

So thrilled to turn on RP and hear this. I uploaded it maybe 15 years ago and it was accepted...but then never played! I checked on it periodically over the years, and it just sat gathering dust in the RP music vault. Now it looks like it's actually getting the rotation it deserves. It gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it.



Thank you for recommending! Fabulous!!!
I like this, it's so strange and wonderful
KISS do not belong anywhere near this master… yikes and I actually was a KISS fan when I was young.
There is only ONE TUNE BY HIM ON THE RP PLAYLIST. PLEASE ADD MORE TUNES!!  Thank You!
Apropos of not very much, Gene Simmons had a song called Sweet Pain on the KISS album Destroyer. This one is pretty good too.

EXCELLENT!! I never heard of him before this.  Thanx RP!

Fellow RP listener:

These are clearly the wrong lyrics. This is from Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's 30 minute epic "Sun Dard Kahani Karbala Di" (YouTube).  

According to TheSufi.com (Link), "Sweet Pain" was a collaboration between NFAK and Peter Gabriel as a way of introducing the artist to the western world.  The sound world greatly resembles Gabriel, so it makes sense.  The lyrics are also taken from the title of a popular love song "Ni Saiyyo Assan Naina de Akhay Laggay," which are repeated throughout.  The last half of the track features a type of 'scat' singing of the same lyric.

Peter Gabriel is a musical prospector. He explores and discovers treasures which shares with the West. He almost always brings gold.
This is my #1 fave track on RP. It's spellbinding on a good stereo that can handle the basslines. 
hysterical

Damn! I was trying to identify that drum, and it's from Stranglehold. Nice.


You can hear the same rapid-fire snare (and guitar strumming) as well a similar bass line groove on Jimi Hendrix's Machine Gun which predates Nugent's Stranglehold by about 5 years:

I Always stop what I am doing when this comes on....
Love the atmosphere it creates and how it shifts in time.

New to me today - really diggin' this one.  Another interesting one missed along the way...thanks RP!
I’ve been listening to the departed NFAK for 30 years and this album is one of my favorites that he’s done. Too bad he can’t share more of his remarkable voice with this world.

Love this bass-forward melody. Fuck yes.
Hmm... pretty sure there was something like this on the soundtrack to Natural Born Killers..? Think it was that scene where Mickey goes batshit (as he tends to) and kills the Native American fella.

Look after the king of R n R please 
Don't  believe I've ever heard this on RP, main mix that is.
But it was played 11 times on the World etc. Mix in the last 30 days.

Dig the rapid scat portion near then end.
Going with a 7 to start.
Legend NFK Michael Brook one of the best base guitar piece
This came right after Hancock's Cantaloupe Island. What a great transition.
fantastic trance inducing.
This is wonderful!
I am going to donate some more money
