SAVE MY PAKISTAN, O MY GOOD LORD GOD ALMIGHTY

O my poor and helpless motherland!

For how long this will go on unchecked

Plunderers, bandits and looters

Are causing your greater wreckage!



O God Almighty Most Powerful!

When will your 'Just Hand' strike

And when will this human slaughter

Be cleansed of all pilferage?

I am not sure O my Good God!

That my poor motherland will cease

To heal from all the sufferings

Which barbaric rulers unleashed.



Just look at how the ruffians

Lie to us in their forums

Saying they are doing their best

To restore our global decorum.



Look at the political stooges

That surround the unfit leader

Flattering him and his cronies

With the praise which they can muster.



My Qaid's* mausoleum is a museum

Where tourists just pay homage

To the greatness of the man

Who gave us this land in old age.



I weep for you O my mother

My poor, destitute Pakistan

Abandoned like a harlot

At the hands of philanderer.



O, had I the power of Samson*

I would have loved to slay the Dagon*

Or if had the blessed succour

Which Moses had against Pharoah

I would have crumpled all his legions.



There is a hostile gang of rapists

Who have no shame, remorse, or honour.

Who love to live with wile women

And their virtues all abandon.



Enough is enough O God Almighty!

You have given these devils a loose rope

But now I pray to you with all my heart

To save my ravaged country.

Save my homeland O Allah!

The "Land of the very pure"

Or send your wrath from heaven

That none can ever endure.
