Paranje Paranje Lyrics English Translation – Lokah

Hither, come this way
To this very shore
Let heavens guide thy path
Lo! All ye, look forth! Look!

Hark, little one, thy Grandma saith
The sea and mount, the field beneath
The earth and sky in boundless girth, ’twas we who guarded them; their worth
And our water, true and clear, ’twas we who guarded it, child, my dear.

Ye children, gaze to skies!
From far, her form doth rise!
Ye children, gaze to skies!
From far, her form doth rise!

‘Twas we who guarded all the lea
And kept the boundless sky for thee
We guarded the waters, the food, the flame
We built this village and gave it name

When hunger burned with hollow cries, We sowed our tears beneath the skies
That seed, O child, became this lore, The soul of the land forevermore
Upon the lines of life we’ve spent, this land’s long history was lent
Behold it now, my little one, the tale of all that we have done

Ye children, gaze to skies!
From far, her form doth rise!
Ye children, gaze to skies!
From far, her form doth rise!
