Asli watan Afghanistan de
Us m'e naseeb prado mulko ke de ma'eena, o yaara ma'eena
Marg-e nedaragem khalko
Ka de watan pa hadeeroke khawre shoma
Yao war me khpel watan ta boz'e
Prade watan de marau qadre kamaweena
Translation
Afghanistan is my native soil,
The fate has taken me to strange estates,
O my ladylove!
Take me once to my own home
In a strange earth one's dignity is decreased.
O people!
I am not afraid of death!
Provided I am buried
…and turned to dust in my own soil
