Aghi Barh Aghi,
Veer Gorkha Daju Bhai,
Jhanda Uncha Rakhnu Chhu Untalis Gorkha Lai!
            Virta ko pardarshan garera
Vishwa yudh ladyon,
Gaja Dekhi France samma ra
Burma dekhi malayaon
Hamile fatah garyon pakhalyo
Ragat ko Khukri,
Ahmedkhel ra Cassino ma aa!
Aghi Barh Aghi,
Veer Gorkha Daju Bhai,
Jhanda Uncha Rakhnu Chhu Untalis Gorkha Lai!
Shingo river vally ma ladi jeete Pirkanthi ra,
