Maa hai mohabbat ka naam
Maa ko hazaaro salaam
Karde fidaa zindagee
aaye jo bacho ke kaam
Maa hai mohabbat ka naam
Haske uthaye gum
baithe na haar ke ho
Baale zamaane ko vo
apne ko maar ke ho
Bhukh miṭaaye sadaa
Pyaas bujhaaye sadaa
Pyaar luṭaaye sadaa
Maange na kimat na dam
Maa hai mohabbat ka naam
Uske kadam chhoona
duniyaa kee shaan hai, haa
Hamko mila hai jo bhee
mamta kaa daan hai ha
Baag lagaatee hai maa
Phool khilaatee hai maa
Vipataa uṭhaati hai maa
Detee hai khusiyaa tamaam
Maa hai mohabbat ka naam
Chahe bhikhaaran ho
khaalee ho haath bhee, haa
Maa to rahegee maa
koee ho zaat bhee haa
Mamtaa kee chhaw ṭale
deep hazaaro jale
God me uske pale
saare riṣhee sab ki maa
Maa hai mohabbat ka naam
“Mother” is the name for love, thousands of salutations to Mother. A mother is always ready to sacrifice her life for her children.
Mother gladly suffers sorrow, and does not accept defeat. She nurtures the world, by practicing self-denial. She always satiates hunger, she always quenches thirst, and she always squanders love, without demanding any costs or price.
To touch her feet is the glory of the world! Whatever we achieve is the gift of motherly love! Mother cultivates the garden, Mother causes the flower to bloom, Mother bears the misery, be-stows all the joys.
Even empty-handed; a mother will be a mother, whatever the caste be! Under the shade of motherly affection, she kindles thousands of lamps. She had tenderly nurtured in her lap; sages and religious leaders.
Movie: Maa Ka Aanchal 1970; Mohammed Rafi
