Shah Ast Hussain
Khawaja Ghareeb Nawaz’s immortal verses on the status of Hazrat Imam Hussain (AS)
Shah ast Hussain, Badshah ast Hussain
Deen ast Hussain, Deen Panah ast Hussain
Sardad na dad dast, dar dast-e-yazeed,
Haqaa key binaey La ila ast HussainAnd a rough translation -
Ruler is Hussain, Emperor is Hussain,
Faith is Hussain , guardian of faith is Hussain .
Offered his head and not the hand to Yazid.
‘Indeed, Hussain is the foundation of La-ilah (the
declaration that none but God is Absolute and Almighty)

Haqiqat-e-abadi hay maqÄm-e-Shabbiri
Badaltay rahay hain andÄze Kufio-ShÄmi
Iqbal here compares two things Shabbiri or Husayniyat, i-e. principles enunciated and adhered to by Imam Husayn, and Yazidiyat, i.e. worldly power and authority. Husayn was the symbol of devotion to and love for Allah, i.e. submission to none except Allah.
The spirit as shown by the rulers of Kufa and Syria, is always changing since it tries to gain strength through fraud, dishonesty, and political expediency and maneuvering as against this truth never changes. So .the place Imam Husayn has achieved, is a reality which shall be hailed and acknowledged for all times to come

As per Md. Ali Johar
Yun to Islam surkhuru huwa har bala ke baad
lekin woh baat na hui karbala ke baad
Qatale-hussain asal main marge yazeed hai
Islam Zinda hota hai har qarbala ke baad

The poem is great but it’s popular attribution to Hazrat Ghraib Nawaz RA is mistaken, It’s actually by a Moinuddin Kashmiri. Several of the knowledgable CHishti saints have pointed this out. See Tarbiyat ul ushshaq for e.g.
