We want bread for them, We want houses and clothes.   Adopted in 1978 Words by Suleiman Laeq (1930-) Music by Ustad Salim Sarmad (1928-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Afghanistan Anthem Native Text So che da mezaka asman wee So che da jahan wadan wee So che jowand pa de jahan wee So che pati yaw afghan wee Tel ba da Afghanistan wee Tel de wee Afghanistan melat Tel de wee jumhouriat Tel de wee meli wahdat Tel de wee afghan meli jumhouriat Tel de wee afghan mellat jumhouriat meli wahdat-meli wahdat ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- English translation So long as there is the earth and the heavens; So long as the world endures; So long as there is life in the world; So long as a single Afghan breathes; There will be this Afghanistan.
