Main Hoon Woh Dharti Maa Lyrics in English Letters (Romanized)
Main Hoon Woh Dharti Maa
Toone Jis Par Dee Hai Jaan
Aaja, Aaja Meri Baanhon Mein
Tujh Ko Main Apna Loon
Seene Se Main Lipta Loon
Aaja, Meri Anant Yaadon Mein
Jang Ki Aag Mein
Maut Ke Raag Mein
Ek Pal Bhi Kabhi
Tera Sar Na Jhuka
Garv Chehre Pe Tha
Maa Ke Pehre Pe Tha
Laadle, Laadle, Shukriyaa
Ab So Bhi Jaa,
Meri God Mein, Meri Chhanv Mein
Sun Jo Kehti Hai Maa
Haan, So Bhi Jaa
Kyun Tu Hai Jaagtaa?
Tu Hi To Hai Basaa
Dhadkano Mein, Dilon Mein Yahaan
Teri Daastaan Sadiyon Tak Yahaan
Log Dohraayenge Raat Din
Mujhko Ehsaas Hai
Jo Bhi Itihaas Hai
Poora Hoga Na Woh, Tere Bin
Ab Kahoon To Kahoon
Kya Main Iske Siwaa?
Laadle, Laadle, Shukriyaa
Ab So Bhi Jaa,
Meri God Mein, Meri Chhanv Mein
Sun Jo Kehti Hai Maa
Haan, So Bhi Jaa
Kyun Tu Hai Jaagtaa?
Tu Hi To Hai Basaa
Dhadkano Mein, Dilon Mein Yahaan
Main Hoon Woh Dharti Maa
Toone Jis Par Dee Hai Jaan
Aaja, Aaja Meri Baanhon Mein
Tujh Ko Main Apna Loon
Seene Se Main Lipta Loon
Aaja, Meri Anant Yaadon Mein…!

The lyrics of this song are very emotional and patriotic, where Mother Earth is speaking to a brave soldier or son. She says, "Main voh dharti maa hoon, jisne tujhe jeevan diya, ab meri baahon mein aa ja, main tujhe apne seene se laga loon, meri anant yaadon mein sama ja" (I am that Mother Earth who gave you life, now come into my arms, let me embrace you to my chest, become one with my endless memories). This sentiment shows a mother's love and sacrifice, who feels proud of her son's bravery.
Further in the song, it is said, "Jung ki aag mein ya maut ke samay bhi tune kabhi sar nahi jhukaya, tere chehre par garv tha aur maa ki raksha tere pehre mein thi, iske liye main tujhe shukriya kehti hoon, ab meri god mein so ja, kyu jaag raha hai, tu hi to mere dil aur dhadkanon mein basa hai" (In the fire of war or at the time of death, you never bowed your head, there was pride on your face and the mother's protection was under your watch, for this I thank you, now sleep in my lap, why are you awake, it is you who lives in my heart and heartbeats). The lyrics mention tales and history, indicating that people will remember your story, and without you, history will remain incomplete. This song is a beautiful expression of patriotism, a mother's love, and sacrifice, which touches the listeners' hearts.
