himmat kabhi na todenge
dushman ko na chhod enge
gutne kabhi na tekenge
mud ke na ham dekhenge
kaisi fikar kaisa dard
dushmano ke hilne se aage badh
dushmano pe tut pad
jaan pe apni khelenge

har mushkil ko jhelenge
kya hoga na sochenge
ham manjil pe pahuchenge
kar fida jaan ko
maar le maidan ko
rok le aandhiya
mod de tufaan ko
himmat kabhi na todenge
dushman ko na chhod enge
gutne kabhi na tekenge
mud ke na ham dekhenge

Never shall courage break,
Nor foe escape our wake.
Never shall we bend the knee,
Nor backward turn to see.

What care we of fear and pain?
Let enemies writhe in vain!
Onward, ever onward stride,
Let fury be your guide!
On our lives we now will gamble.

Every hardship we shall bear,
Of what may come, we shall not care.
The destination we shall embrace,
With life itself, this field we'll face.
Halt the winds, their fury tame,
Bend the tempest's burning flame.
Never shall courage break,
Nor foe escape our wake.
Never shall we bend the knee,
Nor backward turn to see.
