THE RICH AND VALIANT LAND
THE RICH AND VALIANT LAND
Look there! What do you see?
The land of the mighty Himalayas in the North
The land of Ganga and Yamuna that flows.
This is my India
The rich and valiant
My land, my country.
The land which has a remarkable history
The land which had a remarkable struggle
The land which will have a remarkable future.
This is Hindustan
The rich and valiant.
The land of Gandhi, Nehru and Tagore,
The land of Bhagat, Bose and Tilak,
The land of Lakshmi Bhai and Sarojini.
This is my Bharat
The rich and valiant.
The land of sages and rishis,
The land of Ramayana and Mahabharat,
The land of Vedas, Upanishads and Gita.
This is India
The rich and valiant.
The land of the Arabs and the Mughals,
The land of the Mauryans and Guptas,
The land which was once overrun by the French and the English.
The rich river of the culture of India
Fed by the tributaries of varied cultures and religions,
Flowing unbroken through the ages.
Let your valor go down the history of time
The Indian tricolor will fly above the clouds
Every Indian hand raised in a salute
This is India
The rich and valiant
My land, my country
