| Pagdi sambhal oye |
Take care of your turban |
| Pagdi sambhal oye |
Take care of your turban |
| Pagdi sambhal jatta pagdi sambhal oye |
Hey Sikh, take care of your turban |
| Pagdi sambhal jatta pagdi sambhal oye |
Hey Sikh, take care of your turban |
| Pagdi sambhal jatta |
Hey Sikh, take care of your turban |
| Pagdi sambhal tera lut gaya maal oye |
Take care of your turban or else you'll lose your dignity |
| Pagdi sambhal jatta pagdi sambhal oye |
Hey Sikh, take care of your turban |
| Pagdi sambhal jatta |
Hey Sikh, take care of your turban |

|
| Tu dharti ki maang sanware soye khet jagaye |
You adorn the earth and you give life to the farms |
| Tu dharti ki maang sanware soye khet jagaye |
You adorn the earth and you give life to the farms |
| Saare jag ka pet bhare tu annadata kehlaye |
You're the one who provides food to the entire world |
| Phir kyun bhookh tujhe khaati hai |
Then why does hunger bother you |
| Phir kyun bhookh tujhe khaati hai aur tu bhookh ko khaaye |
Then why does hunger bother you and you sleep hungry |
| Lut gaya maal tera, lut gaya maal oye |
You'll lose your dignity |
| Pagdi sambhal jatta pagdi sambhal oye |
Hey Sikh, take care of your turban |
| Pagdi sambhal jatta |
Hey Sikh, take care of your turban |
|
|
| Deke apna khoon paseena tune fasal ugayi |
You grow crops by giving your blood and sweat |
| Deke apna khoon paseena tune fasal ugayi |
You grow crops by giving your blood and sweat |
| Aandhi dekhi toofan jhele bipta sabhi uthayi |
You've seen all the storms and handled all the problems |
| Fasal paki toh le gaye zalim |
The cruel ones stole your crops |
| Fasal paki toh le gaye zalim teri nek kamayi |
The cruel ones stole your crops and your earnings |
| Lut gaya maal tera, lut gaya maal oye |
You'll lose your dignity |
| Pagdi sambhal jatta pagdi sambhal oye |
Hey Sikh, take care of your turban |
| Pagdi sambhal jatta |
Hey Sikh, take care of your turban |
|
|
| Uth aur uthke khaak se zarre ek sitara banja |
Get up and turn from a particle into a star |
| Uth aur uthke khaak se zarre ek sitara banja |
Get up and turn from a particle into a star |
| Bujha bujha kyun dil hai tera ik angara banja |
Why is your heart sad, turn into an ember |
| O sadiyon ke thehre pani |
You're like standing water |
| O sadiyon ke thehre pani behti dhara banja |
You're like standing water, turn into a flowing stream |
| Lut gaya maal tera, lut gaya maal oye |
You'll lose your dignity |
| Pagdi sambhal jatta pagdi sambhal oye |
Hey Sikh, take care of your turban |
| Pagdi sambhal jatta |
Hey Sikh, take care of your turban |
