Patriotism and fraternity are the gems, we must plead;
Personal preoccupations have sundered our nation
Sympathy and sacrifice are overshadowed by greed;
Bribery has hollowed the foundations of our institutions
And red tapism has slowed down their progressive speed;
Solidarity of the nation has badly cracked and shattered
And our people assemble only on the occasion of an Eid;
Verity is a wealth that can refurbish a fabricator society
Truth like beauty is a unique jewelry that can never heed;
We must preserve our valuable irrigation resources
To grow crops and to see greenery in every mead;
We can thrive by reinforcing the roots of our economy
Then every individual of the country will get his feed;
A healthy and wealthy national yield can be harvested
By growing patriots through planting salubrious seed;
Teeming millions are the pearly treasures of each nation
As rosary is fashioned, when integrated by every bead;
We must divert massive resources for education
So that every subject of the nation can easily read;
Let us fortify the basis of our democratic institutions
To groom suitable leadership that can sincerely lead;
Democracy can be established on unwavering bedrock
By curbing autocracy by each of our democratic deed;
Freedom of expression is the touchstone of genuine democracy
In its scarcity, perils of feudalism and despotism rapidly breed;
We are continuously lagging behind in the comity of nations
Peace, progress and prosperity are the jewels,we dearly need;
We are bound to safeguard sovereignty and integrity of our nation state
Whether they demand sacrifices of our lives or cause us gravely bleed.
