| Jahan paanv mein payal |
Where there are anklets in the feet |
| Haath mein kangan |
Where there are bangles in the hand |
| Ho maathe pe bindiya |
Where there is a bindi on the forehead |
|
|
| Jahan paanv mein payal, haath mein kangan |
Where there are anklets in the feet, bangles in the hand |
| Jahan paanv mein payal, haath mein kangan |
Where there are anklets in the feet, bangles in the hand |
| Jahan paanv mein payal, haath mein kangan, ho maathe pe bindiya |
Where there are anklets in the feet, bangles in the hand and a bindi on the forehead |

| Jahan jung pe jaaye sipahi toh khud sajni tilak lagaye |
Where a wife sends her husband soldier to war in a brave manner |
| Jahan jung pe jaaye sipahi toh khud sajni tilak lagaye |
Where a wife sends her husband soldier to war in a brave manner |
| Mooh se toh kuch na bole chupke chupke neer bahaye |
She doesn't say anything but she cries secretly |
| Jahan jung pe jaaye sipahi toh khud sajni tilak lagaye |
Where a wife sends her husband soldier to war in a brave manner |
| Mooh se toh kuch na bole chupke chupke neer bahaye |
She doesn't say anything but she cries secretly |
| Aur ashkon se apne likhkar bheje pyar ki chitthiyan |
And she writes love letters to him using her tears |
| It happens only in India |
It happens only in India |
| It happens only in India |
It happens only in India |

| Jahan din nikle sunkar shlok gurbani aur azaan |
Where the day starts with the call of a prayer |
| Allah O Allah |
Allah O Allah |
| Jahan din nikle sunkar shlok gurbani aur azaan |
Where the day starts with the call of a prayer |
| Jahan mazhab se ooncha hai insaan saare ek samaan |
Where all humans are one and they're bigger than any religion |
| Arre aanch nahi hai saanch ko chahe dekh le saari duniya |
Where the world will see that truth doesn't need any support |
| It happens only in India |
It happens only in India |
| It happens only in India |
It happens only in India |

| Shabri ke khake ber Ram ne prem ki pratha chalayi |
Where Lord Rama ate fruits and fell in love |
| Shabri ke khake ber Ram ne prem ki pratha chalayi |
Where Lord Rama ate fruits and fell in love |
| Meera ne peekar zehar ka pyala preet ki reet nibhayi |
Where Meera fulfilled her love by drinking a bowl of poison |
| Jahan prem ki dhun pe gopiyon sang naache Krishan kanhaiya |
Where Lord Krishna dances with girls on the tune of love |
| Kahin hota hai re bhaiya |
My brother, does that happen anywhere |
| It happens only in India |
It happens only in India |
| It happens only in India |
It happens only in India |

| Saawan ke jhule kahin pe Baisakhi ke mele |
Where there are celebrations of Vaisakhi and the monsoon season |
| Saawan ke jhule kahin pe Baisakhi ke mele |
Where there are celebrations of Vaisakhi and the monsoon season |
| Lagta hai khud kudrat is dharti pe aakar khele |
It seems as if God himself has landed on earth to play |
| Jahan maa se lori sune bina bachon ko na aaye nindiya |
Where kids can't sleep until their mother sings a lullaby |
| It happens only in India |
It happens only in India |
| It happens only in India |
It happens only in India |
