Kya Hind Ka Zindaan Kaanp Raha Goonj Rahi Hain Takbeeren
Uk'taaye Hain Shayad Kuchh Qaidi Aur Tod Rahe Hain Zanjeeren zindaan = prison, takbeerein = slogans

Deewaaron Ke Neeche Aa Aa Kar Yun Jama Huye Hain Zindani
Seenon Mein Talaatum Bijli Ka Aankhon Mein Jhalakti Shamsheerein

Bhookhon Ki Nazar Mein Bijli Hai Topon Ke Dahaane Thande Hain
Taqadeer Ke Lab Pe Jumbish Hai Dam Tod Rahi Hai Tadabeerein
jumbish = small/slight movement, tadbeerein = solutions

Aankhon Mein Gada Ki Surkhi Hai Be-noor Hai Chehra Sultaan Ka
Takhreeb Ne Parcham Khola Hai Sajde Mein Padi Hain Ta'ameeren
gada = poverty, be-noor = light-less, takhreeb = destruction
parcham = flag, ta'ameeren = constructions

Kya Unko Khabar Thi Seenon Se Jo Khoon Churaya Karte The
ik Roz isi Be-rangi Se Jhalakengi Hazaaron Tasveeren

Kya Unko Khabar Thi Honthon Par Jo Kufl Lagaya Karte The
ik Roz isi Khamoshi Se Tapkengi Dahakti Taqreeren
kufl = lock, taqreeren = speeches

Sambhlo Ki Wo Zindaan Goonj Utha Jhapto Ki Wo Qaidi Chhoot Gaye
Utho Ki Wo Baithi Deewaaren Daudo Ki Wo Tooti Zanjeeren
