Vatan ki raah me vatan
kee naujavaan shaheed ho
Pukaarate hai ye zameen-o-aasmaan sheed ho
Shaheed teree mout hee
tere vatan kee zndagee
Tere lahoo se jaag uṭhegee
is chaman me zindagee
Khilenge phool us jagah
ke too jahaa shaheed ho
Hai koun khushnaseeb maa
kee jiskaa ye chiraag hai
Vo khushnaseeb hai kahaa
ye jiske sar kaa taaz hai
Amar vo desh kyoo na ho
kee too jahaa shaheed ho
The Earth and Sky are appealing to young people to become martyrs for the welfare of their Motherland.
O Shaheed! O Martyr! Our country is like a garden. When you surrender your life, your blood will enrich the soil of this garden and ensure a longer life for it. Roses will blossom on the very spot where you will lay down your life.
Who is the fortunate mother of this martyred youth? He was the lamp of her heart. Who is the fortunate fiancee of this martyred youth? He was the crown on her head. 0 Youth! Why won’t your country become immortal when you, like Bhagat Singh, offer your life in its defense?
Singer: Mohammed Rafi, Khan Mastana;
Movie: Shaheed, 1948; Lyricists: Raja Mehdi Ali Khan; Composer: Ghulam Haider.
