The Story Behind Aulaad OST
Aulaad OST brings Rahim Shah's plaintive voice to ARY Digital's family drama about parents confronting distance and ingratitude from their grown children. The channel released the song on 16 December 2020, days before the serial premiered on 22 December. Waqar Ali composed the track, with lyrics by Sabir Zafar and Muhammad Nasir. Their writing turns the show's domestic conflict into an intimate appeal, moving from relationships that feel broken even when loved ones remain physically close to a recurring cradle-song address to a mother. That lullaby image gives the song its emotional center: adulthood falls away, and the singer longs for the shelter associated with childhood. The result works as both a theme for Jalal and Zakia's wounded household and a compact lament about the obligations binding children to their parents.
Meaning & Translation
Aulaad is an Urdu word for children, offspring, or descendants. In this song, it carries both tenderness and responsibility: children remain part of their parents' lives even after age and marriage create emotional distance. The verses describe relatives who are near yet no longer truly meet one another, then return to the image of a mother gently rocking a cradle. That refrain is not a literal wish to become a child again so much as a longing for safety, forgiveness, and uncomplicated love. References to the mother and father as shelter deepen the contrast between parental care and later neglect. The song therefore translates the drama's family conflict into a plea to remember where love, belonging, and duty began.
