Qila Anandpur Da
ਮਾਛੀਵਾੜੇ ਦੇ ਸੱਥਰ ਦੇ ਗੀਤ 'ਚੋਂ
mAChIvA.De de satthara de gIta 'choM
From the echoes of the songs of the thorny bed of Machhiwara [Machhiwara: the forest where Guru Gobind Singh Ji rested on a bed of grass after the battle of Chamkaur]
ਅਸੀਂ ਉੱਠਾਂਗੇ ਚੰਡੀ ਦੀ ਵਾਰ ਬਣ ਕੇ
asIM uTThAMge chaMDI dI vAra baNa ke
We shall rise like the legendary ballad of the goddess of war [Chandi di Var: a heroic composition by the tenth Guru depicting the battle between good and evil]
ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਸੌਣ ਨਹੀਂ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਨਾ ਸੌਣ ਤੈਨੂੰ
jinhAM sauNa nahIM dittA nA sauNa tainUM
Those who did not let us sleep, nor let you rest in peace
ਛਾਂਗ ਦਿਆਂਗੇ ਖੰਡੇ ਦੀ ਧਾਰ ਬਣ ਕੇ
ChAMga diAMge khaMDe dI dhAra baNa ke
We shall prune them down, becoming the sharp edge of the double-edged sword [Khanda: the iconic double-edged Sikh sword symbolizing divine knowledge and justice]
ਛਾਂਗ ਦਿਆਂਗੇ
ChAMga diAMge
We shall prune them down
