na ghar tera na ghar mera
chidiya rain basera
na jane kab uth jayega
is dunia se dera

aisa kam tu kar ja bande
dunia tujhko yad kare
tere sar par bandha rahega
sada vijay ka sehra

No home is yours, nor mine to claim,
The sparrow's fleeting, fragile fame.
We know not when the time will call,
To pack our tents and leave it all.

So strive, O mortal, with all your might,
That deeds of glory shine so bright,
The world remembers, long and true,
A victor's crown on you anew.
