Lyrics: Fateh Shergill
Jad pehli waari maa de muhon putt suneya,
Meri maa boli ne matha mera aa chumeya,
Eh mehngi daulat lafzan di,
Mainu banke mili virasat ae,
Eh te bakhshish baabe nanak di,
Rabb karda aap hifazat ae,
Vajje bhai mardane di rabab,
When for the first time, I heard son from my mother’s mouth
My mother language kissed my forehead
This expensive wealth of words
Passed down to me as legacy
It’s the blessing of Guru Nanak Dev Ji
God himself takes care
The sound of bhai Mardana’s rabab (musical instrument) plays
Mere naal naal rehnda ae punjab,
Mere naal naal rehnda ae punjab, sohneya,
Mere naal naal rehnda ae punjab,
Punjab stays along with me
Punjab stays along with me, my beloved
Punjab stays along with me
Jaatan dharma vich vandeyo na mere sohne watan pyare nu,
Murh paon jaffiyan dhani ram feeke khan singh darbare nu,
Sadi bhaicharak saanjh de deeve balde rehne aa,
Sade harhan sokeyan vich vi langar chalde rehne aa,
Mukk ke vi mukkan wale ni tutke vi tuttan wale ni,
Punjab fateh sihan hasda rahu asi hanju suttan wale ni,
Zor barheyan ne laa leya jnaab,
Don’t divide my beautiful homeland into religions, caste
Let’s hug again Dhani Ram, Feeke Khan and Singh Darbare
The lamps of our brotherhood will always keep burning
In flood or drought our community kitchen (langar system) will continue serving
It won’t end even after finishing, it won’t break even after breaking
Punjab, Fateh (Lyricist) my brother will keep laughing, we aren’t the ones who shed tears
Many tried their best, sir
Mere naal naal rehnda ae punjab,
Mere naal naal rehnda ae punjab, sohneya,
Mere naal naal rehnda ae punjab,
Punjab stays along with me
Punjab stays along with me, my beloved
Punjab stays along with me
Wattan te tur ke sikheya ae kiven raah bannde pagdandiyan ton,
Asi okrhan vadd vadd suttde aa gur laike daatiyan rambiyan ton,
Hakkan layi baaghi ho jana iss mitti hisse aaya ae,
Ene boota aap shahadat da,
Bandookan beej ke layea ae,
Goli vairiyan layi yaaran layi gulab,
Walking on Plow field, I’ve learned how paths are created from crossroad
We break the big hurdles learning from the farm weapons
To become rebel for one’s right, is part of this soil
The plant of sacrifice, he has
Himself sown with the seeds of gun
Bullet for enemies, rose for friends
Mere naal naal rehnda ae punjab,
Mere naal naal rehnda ae punjab, sohneya,
Mere naal naal rehnda ae punjab,
Punjab stays along with me
Punjab stays along with me, my beloved
Punjab stays along with me
Chunniyan di mudd ton paggan ne sambhi hoyi pehredaari ae,
Rang fikke hon nahi dindiyan ethe ruttan chaar lallari ne,
Eh dharti rishiyan muniyan di,
Kaviyan vidhvana guniyan di,
Main murh murh janam lva ethe,
Thaan sabton sohni dunia di,
Mithe amrit wangu ede aab,
From the beginning the guardship of duppata (women’s honour) turbans (Sikh men) have taken
Four dyers haven’t let the colour fade here of vibrant culture
This is the land of sages and saints
Of poets, scholars and virtuous souls
I’ll born here again and again
At this place of most beautiful world
Like the sweet nectar, it’s water is
Mere naal naal rehnda ae punjab,
Mere naal naal rehnda ae punjab, sohneya,
Mere naal naal rehnda ae punjab.
Punjab stays along with me
Punjab stays along with me, my beloved
Punjab stays along with me.
‘Khetan diya buklan vich khede
Sanu lorhi diti faslan ne
Kade mitti nalo tutyo na
Pind jeonde rakhne naslan ne
Pind jeonde rakhne naslan ne’
‘Played in the arms of the fields
Crops gave us the cradle
Never brake from the soil
Generation will keep the village alive
Generation will keep the village alive’
