The vivid imagery of green fields and cooling winds adds warmth to the message.
Le Teri MittiTake your sacred soil,
Tujhe Lauta DiI’ve returned it to you,
Tera Karz Chukaya HaiI’ve finally repaid my debt.
Kabhi Dushman Ke AageThis head that never bowed
Jhuka Na Sar Jobefore any enemy,
Tere Aage Jhukaya HaiI’ve now bowed before you.
Marna Bhi Tujhpe JaiseDying for you feels like
Koyi Jashan Yaarona grand celebration, my friends,
Maut Naseebon Walifor a death this blessed
Milti Hai Kammis a rare grace to receive.
Teri Zameen Pe LungaI’ll take birth again
Phir Main Janam Taakiupon your soil, so that
Phir Bol Paaun Vande MataramI can chant ‘Vande Mataram’ ‘I bow to thee, Mother’ once more.
Sujalam SufalamBountiful with water and fruits,
Malayaja Sheetalamcooled by the mountain winds,
Sasya Shyamala Vande Mataramgreen with the harvest, I bow to the Mother.
Sujalam SufalamAbundant with waters and crops,
Malayaja Sheetalamrefreshed by the southern breeze,
Sasya Shyamala Vande Mataramdark with the verdant fields, I salute the Motherland.
Zyada Nahi Hai YaaronThere aren’t many, friends,
Qurbani Dene Walewho’d make such a sacrifice,
Desh Ke Naam Pe Apnithose who dedicate their entire
Jawani Dene Waleyouth in service to the nation.
Har Rishte Se PehleThose who place the motherland
Watan Ko Rakhne Waleabove every other bond,
Watan Ki Khatir Chita Peand for the sake of the country,
Badan Ko Rakhne Walelay their bodies upon the funeral pyre.
Raakh Hua Toh KyaSo what if I’ve turned to ash,
Hua Main Dhuan To Kyaso what if I’ve become smoke?
Sarhad Pe Pehra DoongaI’ll still keep watch at the border
Banke Pawanby becoming the spirit of the wind.
Sujalam SufalamRichly watered and fruited,
Malayaja Sheetalamsoothed by the fragrant hills,
Sasya Shyamala Vande Mataramlush with the emerald harvest, I bow to the Mother.
