| Mera chana hai apni marzi ka | My gram does whatever it wants to do |
| Marzi ka bhai marzi ka | Whatever it wants to do |
| Mera chana hai apni marzi ka | My gram does whatever it wants to do |
| Marzi ka bhai marzi ka | Whatever it wants to do |
| Yeh dushman hai khudgarzi ka | It's an enemy of selfishness |
| Khudgarzi ka khudgarzi ka | Of selfishness |
| Sar kafan bandh ke nikla hai | It's wearing a shroud on its head |
| Deewana hai yeh pagla hai | It's crazy and mad |
| Mera chana hai apni marzi ka | My gram does whatever it wants to do |
| Marzi ka bhai marzi ka | Whatever it wants to do |
| Apno se naata jodega | It'll build relations with the dear ones |
| Gairo ke sar ko phodega | It'll break the head of strangers |
| Apna yeh vachan nibhayega | It'll fulfill promises |
| Maati ka karz chukayega | It'll fulfill the debt of the motherland |
| Chana hai apni marzi ka | My gram does whatever it wants to do |

| Mit jaane ko mit jayega | It's ready to sacrifice his life |
| Aazaad watan kar jayega | It'll make the country independent |
| Na toh chori hai, na toh daaka hai | It's not like stealing or looting |
| Bas yeh toh ek dhamaka hai | It's like a big explosion |
| Dhamake mein aawaaz bhi hai | There's a loud noise in the explosion |
| Ik saaz bhi hai, ik saaz bhi hai | There's also a tune in it |
| Samjho toh baat yeh saaf bhi hai | Try to understand this, it's very simple and clear |
| Aur na samjho toh raaz bhi hai | If you don't understand this then it's like a secret |
| Apni dharti apna hai gagan | The earth and the sky are ours |
| Yeh mera hai mera hai watan | This is our country |
| Apni dharti apna hai gagan | The earth and the sky are ours |
| Yeh mera hai mera hai watan | This is our country |
| Is par joh aankh uthayega | The one who will look at it with evil eyes |
| Zinda dafnaya jayega | That person will be buried alive |
| Mera chana hai apni marzi ka | My gram does whatever it wants to do |
| Marzi ka bhai marzi ka | Whatever it wants to do |
| Yeh dushman hai khudgarzi ka | It's an enemy of selfishness |
| Khudgarzi ka khudgarzi ka | Of selfishness |
| Mera chana hai apni marzi ka | My gram does whatever it wants to do |
| Marzi ka bhai marzi ka | Whatever it wants to do |
| Yeh dushman hai khudgarzi ka | It's an enemy of selfishness |
| Khudgarzi ka khudgarzi ka | Of selfishness |
