nafarat ki lathi todo, lalach ka khanjar pheko
zid ke pichhe mat daudo, tum prem ke panchi ho desh premiyo
desh premiyo, aapas me prem karo desh premiyo
mere desh premiyo, aapas me prem karo desh premiyo
nafarat ki lathi todo, lalach ka khanjar pheko
zid ke pichhe mat daudo, tum prem ke panchi ho
desh premiyo, aapas me prem karo desh premiyo
mere desh premiyo, aapas me prem karo desh premiyo

dekho, ye dharati, ham sabki mata hai
socho, aapas me, kya apna nata hai
ham aapas me lad baithe to desh ko kaun sambhalega
koi bahar vala apane ghar se hame nikalega
divano hosh karo, mere desh premiyo
aapas me prem karo, mere desh premiyo

mithe pani me, ye zahar na tum gholo
jab bhi, kuchh bolo, ye soch ke tum bolo
bhar jata hai gahra ghav jo banata hai goli se
par vo ghav nahi bharta jo bana ho kadavi boli se
to mithe bol kaho, mere desh premiyo
aapas me prem karo, desh premiyo, mere desh premiyo
aapas me prem karo, mere desh premiyo

todo, divare, ye char dishao ki
roko, mat rahe in, mast havao ki
purab pashchim uttar dakkhan valo mera matlab hai
is mati se puchho kya bhasha kya isaka mazahab hai
phir mujhase bat karo, mere desh premiyo
aapas me prem karo, desh premiyo, mere desh premiyo
aapas me prem karo, desh premiyo
desh premiyo, aapas me prem karo desh premiyo
mere desh premiyo, aapas me prem karo desh premiyo

Shatter hatred's staff, cast off greed's keen blade,
Do not chase stubborn claims, you are love's winged parade,
O lovers of this land, in love embrace one another,
My patriots, in love's arms, embrace each brother,
My patriots, in love's arms, embrace this brother land,
Shatter hatred's staff, cast off greed's hand,
Do not chase stubborn claims, you are love's wing spread,
O lovers of this land, in love embrace, instead,
My patriots, in love's arms, embrace this land's grace.
My patriots, in love's arms, embrace this land's place.

Behold this Earth, our mother's gentle hold,
Reflect, what binds us, stories to be told?
If we war amongst ourselves, who will defend?
Who from outside will on our homes descend?
Awake, you dreamers, my patriots so true,
In love embrace, my patriots, anew.

In waters sweet, do not let poison reside,
When words you choose, with mindful care abide,
Deep wounds from bullets, time can mend and ease,
But bitter words, those scars will never appease,
So speak with sweetness, my patriots bright,
In love embrace, patriots, in the pure light,
My patriots, in love's arms, embrace all sight.
My patriots, in love's arms, embrace pure might.

Break down the walls, that compass our four sides,
Do not restrain the winds, where freedom presides,
East, West, North, South, I speak of every soul,
Ask of this earth, what language makes it whole?
Then speak with me, my patriots, with open face,
In love embrace, patriots, in time and space,
My patriots, in love's arms, embrace this place.
O lovers of this land, in love embrace,
My patriots, in love's arms, embrace this grace.
