Oh! Defenders of borders
You are great sons of my land
When we are all asleep

Windy season or snowy days
Or scorching sun's sweltering rays
You are there guarding all the time awake
Treading the lonely expanses as Yogis.
Climbing the heights or striding the valleys
Defending the deserts and guarding the marshes
Surveillance in seas and by securing the air
Prime of your youth given to the nation!!
Wind Chimes of my land vibrate your feat
We pray for you brave menll
May the Lord bless you all!!
