zameen chhod bhar aasma baaho mein le
parwaj kar nayi dishayo mein

ha ab ye kaafila falak pe jaayega
safar manzil ka ye jo tai kar jaayega
sunehre haraf mein woh likha jaayega
listen carefully move your feet
listen carefully move your feet
listen carefully move your feet

haatho se dor ko humne to tod ke
hawa mein chhod di apni patang
chaho to dekh lo badal ko cheer ke
ambar pe tairti apni patang
ha ab ye raasta ko manzil laayega
bina rukte hue jo chalta jaayega
sunehre haraf mein woh likha jaayega
listen carefully move your feet
listen carefully move your feet
listen carefully move your feet

ab lahu aur bhi surakh ban ne laga hai
ye ubal kar naso mein raks karne laga hai
desh ke kaam aaya ek katra lahu bhi
sau baras tak hai tazaa
sau baras zinda hai, sau baras zinda hai
ha ab ye dastaan jahan dohrayega
shikhar ki ore hath jo badta jaayega
sunehre haraf mein woh likha jaayega
listen carefully move your feet
listen carefully move your feet
listen carefully move your feet

Release the anchor, embrace the boundless sky,
Soar forth, in directions newly defined.

Yes, this caravan will ascend to the heavens,
This journey's passage, its destined traverse,
In letters of gold, its tale shall be penned.

Listen carefully, move your feet,
Listen carefully, move your feet,
Listen carefully, move your feet.

With hands, we severed the binding thread,
And set our kite adrift in the breeze,
If you desire, pierce the clouds overhead,
And see our kite dancing among the trees.
Yes, now this path will reach its destination,
Unwavering, it will keep its stride,
In letters of gold, its tale shall be written.
Listen carefully, move your feet,
Listen carefully, move your feet,
Listen carefully, move your feet.

Now the blood begins to deepen its hue,
It boils, a dance within our veins anew,
A drop of blood for the nation's cause,
Will remain fresh for a hundred years,
A hundred years it lives, a hundred years it lives.
Yes, now this saga the world will replay,
As hands reach for the peak, come what may,
In letters of gold, its tale shall be cast.
Listen carefully, move your feet,
Listen carefully, move your feet,
Listen carefully, move your feet.
