jaage hai ab saare log tere dekh watan
gunje hai naaro se ab ye zami aur ye gagan
kal tak mai tanhaa thaa sune the sab raste
kal tak mai tanhaa thaa par
ab hai saath mere laakho dilo ki dhadakan
dekh watan

aazaadi paayege aazaadi laayege
aazaadi chhaayegi
aazaadi aayegi aayegi

ham chaahe aazaadi
ham maange aazaadi
aazaadi chhaayegi
aazaadi aayegi aayegi

Awake, the people stir, beholding your land,
Echoes of slogans shake earth and heaven's expanse.
Yesterday, I was alone, paths deserted and bare,
Yesterday, I was alone, but now,

A million hearts beat in rhythm with mine,
Behold the land.

Freedom we'll claim, freedom we'll bring,
Freedom shall reign,
Freedom will come, will come.

Echoes of slogans shake earth and heaven's expanse.
Yesterday, I was alone, paths deserted and bare,
Yesterday, I was alone, but now,

A million hearts beat in rhythm with mine,
Behold the land.

We yearn for freedom,
We demand freedom,
Freedom shall reign,
Freedom will come, will come.
