mai hu sher dil mai hu sher dil
mai hu sher dil mai hu sher dil

chand se bhi dur mere pyar ki manzil
mai hu sher dil mai hu sher dil
mai hu sher dil mai hu sher dil

mai watan ka pyar hu
pyar ki bahar hu
dushmano ke washte
teer hu talwar hu
gam ki nadiyo me hu
aas ka sahil
mai hu sher dil mai hu sher dil
mai hu sher dil mai hu sher dil

aasra garib ka hu dhani nasib ka
aasra garib ka hu dhani nasib ka
khak me milau mai hausla rakib ka
ho samne koi bhi katil
mai hu sher dil mai hu sher dil
mai hu sher dil mai hu sher dil

aman ka sipahi hu pyar ka mai rahi hu
jalimo ke waste jurm hu tabahi hu
dharam hai insaniyat ka pyar ka bismil
mai hu sher dil mai hu sher dil
mai hu sher dil mai hu sher dil

I am a lion's heart, I am a lion's heart
I am a lion's heart, I am a lion's heart

Far beyond the moon, my love's destination,
I am a lion's heart, I am a lion's heart
I am a lion's heart, I am a lion's heart

I am the love of the homeland,
I am the spring of love,
For foes,
I am the arrow, I am the sword.
In the rivers of sorrow,
I am the shore of hope,
I am a lion's heart, I am a lion's heart
I am a lion's heart, I am a lion's heart

Shelter of the poor, fortune's heir,
Shelter of the poor, fortune's heir,
I cast down the rival's courage to dust,
Though any killer may appear before me,
I am a lion's heart, I am a lion's heart
I am a lion's heart, I am a lion's heart

A soldier of peace, a traveler of love am I,
For oppressors, I am the crime, I am the ruin,
Humanity is my faith, love's sacrifice,
I am a lion's heart, I am a lion's heart
I am a lion's heart, I am a lion's heart
