My country My Land!

  • Oh Afghan, oh bejeweled land
    Oh, your soil is the wellspring of the arts

    Far from you may the thoughts of evil be
    May you remain lasting and eternal

    Oh enemy, if you are of stone, I am of iron
    May my life be sacrificed for my pure motherland

    Your love is my calling
    My thoughts are never far from you

    In your cause, when do our lives have value?
    May the land of our Afghan be eternal

    The stones of your mountains are jewels and pearls
    The soil of your valleys are better than gold

    When could I rid my heart of your affection?
    Tell me, what will I do without your affection?

    As long as the turning of the earth and the cycling of the sky lasts
    The light of the Divine will always guide us

    Your love is my calling
    My thoughts are never far from you

    In your cause, when do our lives have value?
    May the land of our afghan be eternal

    afghan oh my green paradise
    Bright is my fate because of you

    If fire rains on my body
    Other than your love I will not cherish in my heart

    Your water, soil and love molded my clay
    If your love leaves my heart it will become barren

    Your love is my calling
    My thoughts are never far from you

    In your cause, when do our lives have value?
    May the land of our afghan be eternal
