Deshbhakti

dil se niklegi na mar kar bhi watan ki ulfat meri mitti se bhi khushbu-e-wafa aaegi

sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamare dil mein hai dekhna hai zor kitna bazu-e-qatil mein hai

hum amn chahte hain magar zulm ke khilaf gar jang lazmi hai to phir jang hi sahi

sare jahan se achchha hindostan hamara hum bulbulen hain is ki ye gulsitan hamara the couplet expresses deep love and pride for the homeland, declaring it unsurpassed. by calling the people “nightingales” and the country a “garden,” it uses a nature metaphor to show a living bond: the land nourishes them, and they, in turn, fill it with song and life. the emotional core is gratitude, belonging, and collective identity.

watan ki ret zara ediyan ragadne de mujhe yaqin hai ki pani yahin se niklega

lahu watan ke shahidon ka rang laya hai uchhal raha hai zamane mein nam-e-azadi firaq gorakhpuri presents freedom as something made vivid and credible by the martyrs’ blood. “color” suggests proof, intensity, and a visible reality born from sacrifice. the second line personifies “freedom” as a name that leaps through time, spreading and gaining force. the couplet’s emotional core is pride mixed with reverence for the cost paid to make liberty meaningful.

watan ke jaan-nisar hain watan ke kaam aaenge hum is zamin ko ek roz aasman banaenge

dilon mein hubb-e-watan hai agar to ek raho nikhaarna ye chaman hai agar to ek raho

isi jagah isi din to hua tha ye elan andhere haar gae zindabaad hindostan

zamin par ghar banaya hai magar jannat mein rahte hain hamari khush-nasibi hai ki hum bhaarat mein rahte hain

watan ki khak se mar kar bhi hum ko uns baqi hai maza daman-e-madar ka hai is mitti ke daman mein

us mulk ki sarhad ko koi chhu nahin sakta jis mulk ki sarhad ki nigahban hain aankhen

naqus se gharaz hai na matlab azan se hai mujh ko agar hai ishq to hindostan se hai

ye kah rahi hai ishaaron mein gardish-e-gardun ki jald hum koi sakht inqalab dekhenge

watan ki pasbani jaan-o-iman se bhi afzal hai main apne mulk ki khatir kafan bhi sath rakhta hun

ai ahl-e-watan sham-o-sahar jagte rahna aghyar hain aamada-e-shar jagte rahna

kahan hain aaj wo sham-e-watan ke parwane bane hain aaj haqiqat unhin ke afsane

hum bhi tere bete hain zara dekh hamein bhi ai khak-e-watan tujh se shikayat nahin karte

na hoga raegan khun-e-shahidan-e-watan hargiz yahi surkhi banegi ek din unwan-e-azadi

dukh mein sukh mein har haalat mein bhaarat dil ka sahaara hai bhaarat pyara desh hamara sab deshon se pyara hai

kya karishma hai mere jazba-e-azadi ka thi jo diwar kabhi ab hai wo dar ki surat

bhaarat ke ai saputo himmat dikhae jao duniya ke dil pe apna sikka bithae jao

be-zar hain jo jazba-e-hubb-ul-watani se wo log kisi se bhi mohabbat nahin karte

karwan jin ka luta rah mein aazadi ki qaum ka mulk ka un dard ke maron ko salam

wo hindi naujawan yani alam-bardar-e-azadi watan ki pasban wo tegh-e-jauhar-dar-e-azadi

main ne aankhon mein jala rakha hai aazadi ka tel mat andheron se dara rakh ki main jo hun so hun

khuda ai kash 'nazish' jite-ji wo waqt bhi lae ki jab hindostan kahlaega hindostan-e-azadi

sar-ba-kaf hind ke jaan-baz-e-watan ladte hain tegh-e-nau le saf-e-dushman mein ghuse padte hain

banana hai hamein ab apne hathon apni qismat ko hamein apne watan ka aap beda par karna hai
