paase sabhi ulat gaye dushman ki chaal ke 
akshar sabhi palat gaye bhaarat ke bhaal ke 
manzil pe aaya mulk har bala ko taal ke 
sadiyon ke baad phir ude badal gulaal ke 
ham laaye hain toofaan se kashti nikaal ke 
iss desh ko rakhana mere bachchon sambhaal ke 
tum hi bhavishhya ho mere bhaarat vishaal ke 
is desh ko rakhana mere bachchon sambhaal ke 

dekho kaheen barbaad na hove ye bageecha 
isako hriday ke khoon se baapu ne hai seencha 
rakkha hai ye chiraag shaheedon ne baal ke, is desh kot...

duniya ke daanv pench se rakhana na vaasta 
manzil tumhaari duur hai lamba hai raasta 
bhatka na de koi tumhen dhokhe mein daal ke, is desh ko...

aitam bamon ke zor pe ainthi hai ye duniya 
baarood ke ik dher pe baithi hai ye duniya 
tum har kadam uthaana zara dekha bhaal ke, is desh ko...

araam ki tum bhool bhulayya mein na bhoolo 
sapanon ke hindolon pe magan hoke na jhoolo 
ab waqt aa gaya hai mere hansate hue phoolon 
utho chhalaang maar ke aakaash ko chhu lo 
tum gaad do gagan pe tiranga uchhaal ke, is desh ko...
