You are the Mother, the Great Mother,
Light a lamp on the steps of Justice,
Awaken the slumbering heart.
Transform the earth into sky, make it so,
Make it the sky.
You are the Mother, the Great Mother,
You are the Mother, the Great Mother.

Little children weep,
Naked and hungry, they sob,
While the wealthy, the wealthy,
Feast and revel.
Eradicate the reign of cruelty,
You are the Mother, the Great Mother,
You are the Mother, the Great Mother.

A cloud of sorrow has gathered,
Brother now turns against brother,
Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian,
Now, embrace them all,
Embrace them all.
You are the Mother, the Great Mother,
You are the Mother, the Great Mother,
You are the Mother, the Great Mother.
