jago jago abhi jago na to kab jagoge
god jab maa ki ujad jayegi tab jagoge
ae mere ladlo utho ae mere ladlo utho
himmat se kaam lo himmat se kaam lo
ae mere ladlo
mata ka hath aaj musibat mein thaam lo
ae mere ladlo

zakhmon se jism chur hain chehra nidhal hain
tum bekhabar ho maa ka tumhari ye haal hain
kya muh dikhayenge mujhe gairat se kaam lo
ae mere ladlo
jis maa ke itne laal ho jhele vo kyon sitam
mujh par bura hain waqt karo dur mere gham
beraham dushmano se mera intiqam lo
ae mere ladlo

bakshungi main na dudh jo ki tumne bujdili
meri duaaye sath darna nahi kabhi
aakhir tumhari jeet hai maalik ka naam le
ae mere ladlo
talwar khancho aage badho seena tankar
bazi laga do jaan ki bharat ki aan par
sar se kafan lapet lo maa ka salaam lo
ae mere ladlo

jab tak bhadakti aag ke shole bujha na do
jab tak watan se gham ke andhere mita na do
aaram hai haram ye mera paiyam lo
ae mere ladlo
himmat se kaam lo himmat se kaam lo
ae mere ladlo
mata ka hath aaj musibat mein thaam lo
ae mere ladlo

Awake, awake, if not now, then when will you rise?
When the mother's lap is desolate, will you open your eyes?
Oh, my beloved, arise, oh, my beloved, arise,
Take courage, take courage,
Oh, my beloved.
In this hour of peril, grasp your mother's hand,
Oh, my beloved.

Your bodies wounded, faces weary and drawn,
Unaware are you of your mother's plight, forlorn.
How will you face me? Act with honor and pride,
Oh, my beloved.
Why should she, who bore so many sons, suffer such pain?
My time of sorrow, cast it away, remove this stain.
From the heartless foes, my vengeance be sought,
Oh, my beloved.

I shall not forgive a coward's deed,
My blessings are with you, have no fear, indeed.
Victory is yours, with the Lord's name on your tongue,
Oh, my beloved.
Draw your swords, advance, chest held high,
Stake your life for India's honor, don't be shy.
Wrap shrouds on your heads, take your mother's blessing,
Oh, my beloved.

Until you quench the fiery flames' might,
Until you banish the shadows of sorrow and the night,
Rest is forbidden, this is my command,
Oh, my beloved, arise!
Take courage, take courage,
Oh, my beloved.
In this hour of peril, grasp your mother's hand,
Oh, my beloved.
