Friends,
I donno whether this msg fits here (or) not & sorry to post this here, but since tomorrow is our Republic Day, I just thought it is good to post this here...
BTW, how many of us really know the meaning of our National Anthem...(I didn’t know till I found this meaning in a book)
Anyways, my SALUTE goes to all those greatest brave souls of our country...
Here the meaning goes...
Jana-gana-mana-adhinayaka, jaya he
Bharata-bhagya-vidhata.
Punjab-Sindh-Gujarat-Maratha
Dravida-Utkala-Banga
Vindhya-Himachala-Yamuna-Ganga
Uchchala-Jaladhi-taranga.
Tava shubha name jage,
Tava shubha asisa mage,
Gahe tava jaya gatha,
Jana-gana-mangala-dayaka jaya he
Bharata-bhagya-vidhata.
Jaya he, jaya he, jaya he,
Jaya jaya jaya, jaya he!
English rendering of the Anthem :
Thou art the ruler of the minds of all people,
dispenser of India?s destiny.
Thy name rouses the hearts of Punjab, Sind,
Gujarat and Maratha,
Of the Dravida and Orissa and Bengal;
It echoes in the hills of the Vindyas and Himalayas,
mingles in the music of Jamuna and Ganges and is
chanted by the waves of the Indian Sea.
They pray for thy blessings and sing thy praise.
The saving of all people waits in thy hand,
thou dispenser of India?s destiny.
Victory, victory, victory to thee.
