وطن ہمارا آزاد کشمیر 𝄆
𝄇 آزاد کشمیر آزاد کشمیر

جاگ اٹھی ہے ساری وادی
حامی ہے اللہ تمہارا
 
وطن ہمارا آزاد کشمیر 𝄆
𝄇 آزاد کشمیر آزاد کشمیر
زَر کے لالچ سے اوشیطاں

And of rivers and mountain ranges
The sky is the flag of the state
The flag of the crescent and star
Which looks like heaven
Our Jammu and Kashmir!
 
𝄆 Azad Kashmir our Homeland,
Azad Kashmir, Azad Kashmir 𝄇
The population of Kohistan
The mountainous land has the crown of the state's freedom
The moth is awake to keep our honour
They lightened the candle of freedom
The whole valley is awake
Their weakness is only without Allah
 
𝄆 Azad Kashmir our Homeland,
Azad Kashmir, Azad Kashmir 𝄇
Beckoned to oblivion by the great Satan
Why should we lose our faith and way of religion and life?
In the moment, we stand with our brother Pakistanis
The Quran is the protector of our honour
We give our lives for sacrifices
We’ll sacrifice our lives and goods for our cause
 
𝄆 Azad Kashmir our Homeland,
Azad Kashmir, Azad Kashmir 𝄇
