maa hai mohabbat ka nam
maa hai mohabbat ka nam, maa ko hajaro salam
karde fida jindagi aaye jo bacho ke nam
maa hai mohabbat ka nam, maa ko hajaro salam

haskr uthaye gum baithe na har ke
bale jamane ko wo apne ko mar ke
bhukh mitaye sada, pyas bujhaye sada
mange na kimat na dam
maa hai mohabbat ka nam, maa ko hajaro salam

uske kadam chhuna dunia ki shan hai
hamko mila hai jo bhi mamta ka dan hai
bag lagati hai maa, phul khilati hai maa
vipada uthati hai maa, deti hai khusiya tamam
maa hai mohabbat ka nam, maa ko hajaro salam

chahe bhikhran ho khali ho hath bhi
maa to rahegi koi ho jat bhi
mamta ki chaw tale deep hajaro jale
god me uske pale sare rishi maa
maa hai mohabbat ka nam, maa ko hajaro salam
karde fida jindagi aaye jo bacho ke nam
maa hai mohabbat ka nam, maa ko hajaro salam

Mother is the name of love,
a thousand salutations to her above.
She'd give her life, a sacrifice so true,
for the sake of her children, me and you.

ignoring the world, enduring life's harsh rain.
She stills our hunger, quenches every thirst,
never asking for a price, no matter what it's been rehearsed.

bears the hardships, dispelling every gloom.
Mother is the name of love,
a thousand salutations to her above.

Though she may be impoverished, with empty hands,
she remains a mother, across all the lands.
Beneath her sheltering love, a thousand lamps ignite,
in her embrace, even the sages find their light.

a thousand salutations to her above.
She'd give her life, a sacrifice so true,
for the sake of her children, me and you.
