The Golden Bird
The Golden Bird


India, the golden bird,
Known to foreigners.
The land with mountains and oceans.
The land of rainbow-colored notion.
With as rich a history as India,
No other country even comes close.
India, a host of friends and a destroyer of foes.
Call it India, Sindhu, Hind, Hindustan.
A land of deserts and rivers.
A land of boats and caravans.
A unique blend of culture you find in this nation,
Rich in languages, customs, and traditions.
Take a trip from Kashmir to Kanyakumari,
Prepare your five senses for a distinctive treasury.
Life is a carnival in this country,
And never boring.
Each person, from the prince to the pauper
Cherish a remarkable story.
That is my land, my dear India,
Where there is love in our hearts and no fear.
