Khoon jo behta hai toh behne deIf blood flows, then let it flow.
Khoon jo bole toh use kehne deIf blood speaks, then let it speak.
Saza dhabbe khoon ke jisam parThe marks of blood are a punishment on the body,
Khoon ko tu yoon khoon rehne deSo let blood just remain as blood.
Fauladi seene pe daageStains on an iron-like chest,
Zulm ke nishaanAre the marks of oppression.
Par har ek saans ab bhi haiBut every breath is still,
Watan pe kurbaanSacrificed for the homeland.
Watan pe kurbaanSacrificed for the homeland.
