| DEH SHIVA BAR MOHE IHA |
| Grant me this boon, 0, God, from thy greatness |
| SHUBH KARMAN TEY KABHU NA TAROON |
| May I never refrain from righteous acts, |
| NA DAROO AR SIYOO JAB JAH LAROO |
| May I fight without fear all foes in life's battle, |
| NISCHAI KAR APNE JEET KAROO |
| With confident courage claiming the victory' |
| AR SIKH HAO APNE HE MUN KO |
| May Thy glory be gained in my mind, |
| EH LALACH HAU GUN TAU UCHROO |
| And my highest ambition be singing thy praises |
| JAB AAV KI AUDH NIDHAAN BANAY |
| When this mortal reaches its limits, |
| AUT HE RAN ME TAB JOOJH MAROO |
| May I die fighting with limitless courage' |
