Lyrics |
Translation |
Yeh jo des hai tera | This country of yours |
Swades hai tera | Is your motherland |
Tujhe hai pukara | It calls out to you |
Yeh woh bandhan hai | This is a bond |
Jo kabhi toot nahin sakta | Which can never break |
|
|
Mitti ki hai jo khushboo | The aroma of it's soil |
Tu kaise bhulayega | How can you forget that |
Tu chahe kahin jaye | Wherever you go |
Tu laut ke aayega | You'll come back |
Nayi nayi raahon mein | In your new paths |
Dabi dabi aahon mein | In your quiet sighs |
Khoye khoye dil se tere | From your lost heart |
Koi yeh kahega | Someone will say that |
|
|
Yeh jo des hai tera | This country of yours |
Swades hai tera | Is your motherland |
Tujhe hai pukara | It calls out to you |
Yeh woh bandhan hai | This is a bond |
Jo kabhi toot nahin sakta | Which can never break |
|
|
Tujhse zindagi | Your life |
Hai yeh keh rahi | Is telling you that |
Sab toh paa liya | You've achieved everything |
Ab hai kya kami | What else are you missing |
Yoon toh sare sukh hai barse | As such, you have all the comforts |
Par door tu hai apne ghar se | But you're far from your home |
Aa laut chal tu ab deewane | Come, let's go back, O crazy one |
Jahan koi toh tujhe apna maane | Where at least someone will be yours |
Aawaaz de tujhe bulane, wohi des | It's calling you, that country |
|
|
Yeh jo des hai tera | This country of yours |
Swades hai tera | Is your motherland |
Tujhe hai pukara | It calls out to you |
Yeh woh bandhan hai | This is a bond |
Jo kabhi toot nahin sakta | Which can never break |
|
|
Yeh pal hai wohi | It's this very moment |
Jis mein hai chupi | In which there is hidden |
Poori ek sadi | A complete century |
Sari zindagi | An entire lifetime |
Tu na pooch raaste mein kahe | Don't ask me why in the path |
Aaye hai is tarah do rahe | There are two separate ways |
Tu hi toh hai raah jo sujhaye | You're the one who will pick the path |
Tu hi toh hai ab jo yeh bataye | You're the one who will tell |
Jaye toh kis disha mein jaye, wohi des | Which direction to take, that country |
|
|
Yeh jo des hai tera | This country of yours |
Swades hai tera | Is your motherland |
Tujhe hai pukara | It calls out to you |
Yeh woh bandhan hai | This is a bond |
Jo kabhi toot nahin sakta | Which can never break |
