خودی کی موت سے مغرب کا اندروں بے نورخودی کی موت سے مشرق ہے مبتلائے جذام

Khudi Ki Mout Se Maghrib Ka Androon Be-NoorKhudi Ki Mout Se Mashriq Hai Mubtala-e-Juzaam

Devoid the West of inner light, Her soul is struck with deadly blightThe loss of self has made the East, A leper, for germs befitting feast.

خودی کی موت سے روح عرب ہے بے تب و تاببدن عراق و عجم کا ہے بے عروق و عظام

Khudi Ki Mout Se Rooh-e-Arab Hai Be-Tab-o-TaabBadan Iraq-o-Ajam Ka Hai Be-Urooq-o-Izaam

The Arabs have lost their former zeal, Their souls are shrunk, they can not feel;Iraq and Persia are bereft, Of bones and veins and naught is left!

خودی کی موت سے ہندی شکستہ بالوں پرقفس ہوا ہے حلال اور آشیانہ حرام!

Khudi Ki Mout Se Hindi Shikasta Balon ParQafas Huwa Hai Hilal Aur Ashiyana Haraam!

The self of Indians is extinct, By pinions cleft is made distinctFor they are pleased with prison life, To break the bars they wage no strife!

خودی کی موت سے پیر حرم ہوا مجبورکہ بیچ کھائے مسلماں کا جام ہ احرام!

Khudi Ki Mout Se Peer-e-Haram Huwa MajboorKe Baich Khaye Musalman Ka Jama-e-Ahraam!

Demise of self has made divine, Who keeps a watch on Holy Shrine,To sell the robes that pilgrims don, On sale proceeds he lives upon.
