zami aur asma lahu se laal hai
ahinsa ke desh me ye agnikaal hai
ahinsa ke desh me ye agnikaal hai
zami aur aasma lahu se laal hai

ladte jo zulm se salakho ke paar hain
khuni darindo ki yaha jai jai kaar hai

The earth and heavens, crimson stained with blood,
A fiery age in non-violence's wood.
A fiery age in non-violence's land,
The earth and heavens, blood upon the sand.

Those who fight injustice, locked behind bars,
While bloody beasts are hailed beneath the stars.
Those who fight injustice, locked away,
While bloody beasts are cheered throughout the day.
The earth and heavens, crimson stained with blood,
A fiery age in non-violence's wood.
A fiery age in non-violence's land,
The earth and heavens, blood upon the sand.

India the great, yet people blind and frail,
Unknowing of the vote's majestic trail.
India the great, yet people lost and blind,
Unknowing of the vote's power to bind.
The earth and heavens, crimson stained with blood,
A fiery age in non-violence's wood.
A fiery age in non-violence's land,
The earth and heavens, blood upon the sand.
