yaad aana hun ji nahi lagda
ik naal lake tu bol
had sarhad kaagaz te lekha
behad hoke bol

chand nakshe haq landa qasida
beqla vangu bol
lafza nu shartandi aadat
chal aaj akh nal bol
sarhad ne kita sanu kharch fazool
chan de waade hun na kari qubool
mazbane faqur ae thag jaa, ve thag jaa
aafda de saroor me bhaj aa, ve bhaj aa
chad para dastoor ve bas jaa, ve bas jaa
khud siya magrur me bant jaa, ve bant jaa
yaad aana hun ji nahi lagda
ik naal lake tu bol
had sarhad kaagaz te lekha
behad hoke bol

sunle maula, sun dil ki laga
likh ja ve jaba wicho ghar da pata ve
desha keda me humshakla da
muthiya nu khol thoda hath to mila le
tere sarvar da, mere parvar da
jhoot wat na da, na asar karda
mazbane faqur ae thag jaa, ve thag jaa
aafda de saroor me bhaj aa, ve bhaj aa
chad para dastoor ve bas jaa, ve bas jaa
khud siya magrur me bant jaa, ve bant jaa

To yearn no longer feels like living,
speak, embracing one.
Boundaries, borders, paper's ledger,
speak, unbound, begun.

The moon's maps claiming a village,
speak, like the lone one.
Words are accustomed to conditions,
speak today, with an eye undone.
The border has spent us, useless,
accept not the moon's promises.
Pride's intoxication, be stolen, oh stolen,
in disaster's bliss, flee, oh flee.
Leave behind the custom, reside, oh reside,
in your own pride, be divided, oh divided.
To yearn no longer feels like living,
speak, embracing one.
Boundaries, borders, paper's ledger,
speak, unbound, begun.

Listen, master, heed the heart's embrace,
write, oh write, the house's address from within.
Which land, of my own kin's faces?
Open your fists, extend your hand to meet again.
Of your garden, of my nurture,
false homeland's name, no effect does it render.
Pride's intoxication, be stolen, oh stolen,
in disaster's bliss, flee, oh flee.
Leave behind the custom, reside, oh reside,
in your own pride, be divided, oh divided.
