अग्निपथ (Agnipath)
Composed by हरिवंश राय बच्चन (Harivansh Rai Bachchan)
Original Hindi
अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ!
वृक्ष हों भले खड़े,
हों घने, हों बड़े,
एक पत्र छाँह भी माँग मत, माँग मत, माँग मत।
अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ!
तू न थकेगा कभी,
तू न रुकेगा कभी,
तू न मुड़ेगा कभी,
कर शपथ, कर शपथ, कर शपथ।
अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ!
यह महान दृश्य है,
चल रहा मनुष्य है,
अश्रु, स्वेद, रक्त से लथपथ, लथपथ, लथपथ।
अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ!
English Translation
Path of Fire! Path of Fire! Path of Fire!
Let trees stand tall,
Be dense, be grand,
Do not ask for even a leaf's shade, do not ask, do not ask, do not ask.
Path of Fire! Path of Fire! Path of Fire!
You will never tire,
You will never stop,
You will never turn back,
Take an oath, take an oath, take an oath.
Path of Fire! Path of Fire! Path of Fire!
This is a magnificent sight,
Humanity walks on,
Drenched in tears, sweat, blood, drenched, drenched, drenched.
Path of Fire! Path of Fire! Path of Fire!

छोटा नहीं है पंथ,
नहीं अंत कहीं अंत,
यह सफर है अनंत।
मत खोना अपना विश्वास,
हर कदम में हो प्रकाश,
हर स्वाँस में हो साहस।
अग्निपथ की हर ज्वाला,
तेरा जीवन करे निराला,
बन जाए एक मशाल।
निश दिन हो तेरा प्रयास,
पूरा हो हर एक आस,
कर्म की यही है मिसाल।
अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ!

The path is not short,
There is no end, no end anywhere,
This journey is endless.
Do not lose your faith,
Let there be light in every step,
Let there be courage in every breath.
Every flame of the Path of Fire,
May it make your life unique,
Become a torch.
May your effort be day and night,
May every hope be fulfilled,
This is the example of action.
Path of Fire! Path of Fire! Path of Fire!
