Mountain ranges and rolling pastures,
Flowering meadows and shalimars,
Home of fair belles and dashing lovers,
Here is my valley, Here is my land.
مجھے بس دیکھ لو تم میں زباں سے کچھ نہیں کہتا
میرے دل کی جو حالت ہے میری صورت بتا دے گی
!ژچُھکھ شمعِ ھِدایتَ یا مُحَمدؑ
ژچُھکھ نورچ حقیقت یامُحَمدؑ
ژےؑ پتھ یم دؑدی تِمو لؑب زِندگانیِ
بؑہ کَرہےَپونپرِنی گَتھ یا مُحَمدؑ
پرانے ہو چکے ہیں لیلیٰ و مجنوں کے افسانے
سنو تو میں سناؤں اک نیا ٹکڑا کہانی کا
اگر چُھے ظون سمربھگوانہ سندی گون
ژیہ سپدی شود پنُن دِل ہیر تَے بون
چُھ تمی سُند ناو سمرُن عینَ اِکسیر
بناوان کیمیا گر چُھے کھوٹس سون
