Hum Apne Watan Pe Mar Gaye Lyrics – Divya Kumar | Mera Fauji Calling

Hum Apne Watan Pe Mar Gaye Song Description

This song "Hum Apne Watan Pe Mar Gaye" (हम अपने वतन पे मर गए) is from the film Mera Fauji Calling, which features Sharman Joshi, Bidita Bag, Vikram Singh, and Mahi Soni in lead roles. This song presents the feeling of patriotism and sacrifice in a very moving way, and it is sung by Divya Kumar in his powerful voice. The music is given by Sajjad Ali Chandwani, while the words are written by A.M. Turaz, and it has been released by Zee Music Company. The lyrics are in the voice of a soldier who says that he was martyred while protecting his nation and did not return home, but he has no regrets because he gave his life for the country — "Hum apne watan pe mar gaye" (We died for our nation) is his greatest achievement.

The song begins with an energetic and sorrowful tone, where he says: "Ye baat alag hai ki hum wapas na apne ghar gaye, lekin ye kya kam hai ki hum apne watan pe mar gaye" (It is a different thing that we did not return home, but is it any less that we died for our nation) — meaning not returning home is not a loss, but dying for the nation is a matter of pride. Further, he says "Tum yaad rakho ya jao bhool, iski bhi parwah nahi" (Whether you remember me or forget me, I don't care about that either) because he has done his duty — "Humko toh tumhari khatir jo karna tha wo hum kar gaye" (We have done whatever we had to do for you). These lines clearly show that for a soldier, the safety of the country and its people comes above all else, even if it costs them their life.

In the second part, the song becomes even more emotional — he says "Kal jab humara zikr tumhaare lab pe ho, toh barishe fakri ki hum sab par ho" (When our mention is on your lips tomorrow, may showers of poverty rain upon us all) — perhaps meaning that tears should flow in their memory, or their sacrifice should be remembered. He also says "Hum zinda rahenge tum mein, har rishta jiyenge tum mein" (We will live on in you, every relationship will live through you) — meaning even after being martyred, he will live on in people's hearts. At the end, there is a plea — "Agar ho sake toh itni si iltija hai, humaare baad humara jo bhi bacha hai, bas uska khayal rakhna" (If possible, this is my humble request: after us, whatever remains of ours, please take care of it) — this is a soldier's final wish that his family or legacy be looked after, and that would feel like the true tribute, like Eid and Diwali to him. Overall, this song presents patriotism, sacrifice, and respect for soldiers in an extremely heart-touching way, and is deeply connected to the story of the film 'Mera Fauji Calling' .
