Pandrah-august

ai laila-e-jamhuriyat

ai dilbar-e-hindostan

tujh se farogh-e-shama-e-shab

mahfil mein lau ki ibtida

ahl-e-wafa ke des mein

tariKH-e-nau ki ibtida

zulmat-bad-aman KHak par

suraj ki zau ki ibtida

har lab pe teri dastan

zulfen teri ambar-fashan

ai dilbar-e-hindostan

tu apne dast-e-naz mein

ek KHushnuma parcham liye

apne jilau mein nau-ba-nau

KHushiyon ka ek aalam liye

manzil ke rahi ke liye

ek rau liye ek rum liye

hansti hui gati hui

aawaz si deti hui

sangit ki har tan mein

dars-e-amal deti hui

ban kar umangon ka nishan

aai hamare darmiyan

ai dilbar-e-hindostan

ab jagmagati rah hai

aur rahrawon ke qafile

ab tez hain sab ke qadam

ab miT rahe hain fasle

ab zindagi hai wajd mein

ab jagte hain walwale

thak kar koi sota nahin

ab peD ke sae tale

naghmat-e-azadi ki dhun

kitni junun-angez hai

ab nashsha-e-mai hai siwa

ab saz ki lai tez hai

ab ruh ko hasil yahan

sad ishrat-e-parwez hai

masrur hain pir-o-jawan

ai dilbar-e-hindostan

teri had-e-shadab mein

gang-o-jaman aabaad hain

kohsar ke hain silsile

dasht-o-daman aabaad hain

ahl-e-yaqin aabaad hain

arbab-e-fan aabaad hain

mahtab aur tare liye

nile gagan aabaad hain

jannat-nishan kashmir ke

rangin chaman aabaad hain

jo hain hamari aabru

hain jamn ke hum sab pasban

ai dilbar-e-hindostan

aa hum tere aanchal tale

parcham tera uncha karen

teri hifazat ke liye

saif o qalam yakja karen

tujh ko banaen kaamran

ai dilbar-e-hindostan

mafhum-e-azadi hai kya

nur-e-sahar ki justuju

kya hai mata-e-hurriyat

insan ke dil ki aarzu

sad-afrin bar-daur-e-mai

aazad hain jam-o-subu

aazad hai pael ki dhun

aazad hai zulfon ki bu

aazad hai soz-e-jigar

aazad hai dil ka lahu

aazad hai zauq-e-safar

aazad hai jine ki KHu

jae na kyun dil ki lagan

mahfil-ba-mahfil ku-ba-ku

sad marhaba puri hui

wo hasrat-e-kaif-e-numu

jis ke sabab barbaad tha

sadiyon se apna karwan

ai dilbar-e-hindostan

tu zulmaton ke sail mein

sham-e-farozan ban gai

shab-tab ufuq par hind ke

nur-e-daraKHshan ban gai

wadi-e-nikhat-bez mein

ju-e-KHiraman ban gai

KHushbu se jis ki chaar su

wo zulf-e-jaanan ban gai

dil ka sukun aaram-e-jaan

ai dilbar-e-hindostan
