English Translation



Our India is the best amongst the countries of the World.
We are its nightingales and it is our garden.

The highest mountain-neighbor to the skies is our sentinel and guards us.

A thousand rivulets play in its lap, and due to them it has become the envy of the heavens.

Religion does not teach us to hate each other.
We are all Indians and India is our homeland.
