aane wale kal ki tum taswir ho
naj karegi dunia tum par dunia ki takdir ho
aane wale kal ki tum taswir ho
naj karegi dunia tum par dunia ki takdir ho

tum ho kisi kutiya ke dipak jag me ujala kar doge
bholi bhali muskano se sabki jholi bhar doge
haste chalo jamane me tum chalta hua ek tir ho
naj karegi dunia tum par dunia ki takdir ho
aane wale kal ki tum taswir ho
naj karegi dunia tum par dunia ki takdir ho

nam na lena rone ka roto ko hasane aye ho
nahi ruthna tum kabhi bhi ke tum ruthe ko manane aaye ho
nam na lena rone ka roto ko hasane aye ho
nahi ruthna tum kabhi bhi ke tum ruthe ko manane aaye ho
jo ruthi takdir badal de tum aisi tabdir ho
naj karegi dunia tum par dunia ki takdir ho
aane wale kal ki tum taswir ho
naj karegi dunia tum par dunia ki takdir ho

ek din honge jami aasma chand sitare hatho me
hogi ek din bagdor bharat ki tumhari hatho me
ek din honge jami aasma chand sitare hatho me
hogi ek din bagdor bharat ki tumhari hatho me
tod sake na dusman jisko tum aisi janjir ho
naj karegi dunia tum par dunia ki takdir ho
aane wale kal ki tum taswir ho
naj karegi dunia tum par dunia ki takdir ho

You are the portrait of a dawn yet to break,
On you, the world will lavish pride, the world's fate you make.
You are the portrait of a dawn yet to break,
On you, the world will lavish pride, the world's fate you make.

Like a lamp within a humble home, you'll paint the world with light,
With innocent smiles, you'll fill each heart with pure delight.
Laugh as you journey, a swift arrow in flight,
On you, the world will lavish pride, the world's fate you make.
You are the portrait of a dawn yet to break,
On you, the world will lavish pride, the world's fate you make.

Speak not of tears, for to laughter you are bound,
Never turn away, for reconciliation you have found.
Speak not of tears, for to laughter you are bound,
Never turn away, for reconciliation you have found.
You are the destiny to change a fate unbound,
On you, the world will lavish pride, the world's fate you make.
You are the portrait of a dawn yet to break,
On you, the world will lavish pride, the world's fate you make.

One day, earth and sky, the moon and stars, within your grasp,
One day, the reins of India, within your clasp.
One day, earth and sky, the moon and stars, within your grasp,
One day, the reins of India, within your clasp.
A chain unbreakable, defying every clasp,
On you, the world will lavish pride, the world's fate you make.
You are the portrait of a dawn yet to break,
On you, the world will lavish pride, the world's fate you make.
