jaag devta naag devta janam diya jinko tumne
jaag devta naag devta janam diya jinko tumne

jaag devta naag devta janam diya jinko tumne

dene vaale ko vaapas lene ka kya haq hai
vaapas lene vaale ko dene ka kya haq hai
dene vaale ko vaapas lene ka kya haq hai
vaapas lene vaale ko dene ka kya haq hai
baras raha hai aankh se paani lagi hai dil me aag devta
jaag devta naag devta, jaag devta naag devta

aagal chhaati pit ke ro ke maatam karte hai
dobaara kab zinda hote hai jo marte hai
aagal chhaati pit ke ro ke maatam karte hai
dobaara kab zinda hote hai jo marte hai
bujhe huye dipak na jale to kaisa dipak raag devta
jaag devta naag devta, jaag devta naag devta

bekar hai rona insaano himmat se kam lo divaano
jo patthar hai kab khilta hai insaf kabhi yu milta hai
kya rakha hai in baato me taqdir hai apne haatho me
ab tod do jhuthi rasmo ko sab baato ko sab kasmo ko
vo chikh nahi thi naara tha tumko bhagwan pukara tha
is vaqt agar dar jaaoge vo mar gaya tum mar jaaoge
dekho utho bhaago daudo zanjir gulaami ki todo
dekho utho bhaago daudo zanjir gulaami ki todo
dekho utho bhaago daudo zanjir gulaami ki todo
dekho utho bhaago daudo zanjir gulaami ki todo

Awake, O serpent god, you birthed these forms,
Awake, O serpent god, you birthed these forms.
Why do you strike them, serpent god?
Awake, O serpent god, you birthed these forms,
Why do you strike them, serpent god?
Awake, O serpent god, awake, O serpent god.

What right has the giver to reclaim?
What right has the taker to bestow again?
What right has the giver to reclaim?
What right has the taker to bestow again?
Tears flood the eyes, a fire in the heart, O god.
Awake, O serpent god, awake, O serpent god.

The mad ones wail, beating their chests in grief,
When death descends, can life find sweet relief?
The mad ones wail, beating their chests in grief,
When death descends, can life find sweet relief?
If quenched lamps fail to ignite, where is the song, O god?
Awake, O serpent god, awake, O serpent god.

Futile is weeping, humans, find courage now,
For stone remains stone, justice arrives somehow.
Why dwell on these things, fate lies in your own hands,
Shatter the false rituals, break all commands.
That cry was not a wail, but a call to arms,
You were summoned by God, shielded from harms.
If fear grips you now, you shall perish too,
Rise, run, and break free, your freedom pursue!
Rise, run, and break free, your freedom pursue!
Rise, run, and break free, your freedom pursue!
Rise, run, and break free, your freedom pursue!
