FPK Recitals: Wetch kyuth naad loyukh Azadi [Behold, how they call Freedom] by Ather Zia

Kashiri panni loal borukhh
Watan peth khodaii sorrukh
Khooneh seeth nyeth korukh
Wetchh kyutth naad loyukh Azadi
Tyuth naad loyukh Azadi

Loved Kashmir with a passion
They sought God on the streets
Signed in blood [freedom’s] decree
Behold, how they call Freedom
What a way to call Freedom!

Atchyen hyund gaash dyitukh
Kothen hyund hosh dyitukh
Jisman hyund josh dyitukh
Wetchh kyutth naad loyukh Azadi
Tyuth naad loyukh Azadi

They gave the sight of their eyes
Vigor of their knees
Sacrificed their warm bodies
Behold, how they call Freedom
What a way to call Freedom!

Goliyen nyen seeneh dyitekh
Sholeh atchan pellet ratekh
Kraethe-haw-hek pardeh tchatikh
Wetchh kyutth naad loyukh Azadi
Tyuth naad loyukh Azadi

Offered bare chests to bullets
Pellets pierced their blazing eyes
They ripped the veils of acrid air
Behold, how they call Freedom
What a way to call Freedom!

Hazratbaleh petha tchraras taam
Shahar saree, beyi saeri gaam
Khod mukhtari hind fidwi tamaam
Wetchh kyutth naad loyukh Azadi
Tyuth naad loyukh Azadi

From Hazratbal to Tchrar
In all the cities and the countryside
Every seeks self-determination
Behold, how they call Freedom
What a way to call Freedom!
