hey janni maa bharti, tu nahi sahas haarti
jag karta teri aarti, aisi teri bhakti ho
tere rup shakshat hai, tere karodo sath hai
tere karodo hath hai, jinme teri bhakti hai
sare hi saagaro ke tat par hai teri pransha
? tera har har shaetar hai pransha

tu vidya, tu dharam hai
dur hai tu param hai
prem se bante?
karuna apaar teri ho
tu jyoti, tu khayal hai
tu dhiraj, tu dhyan hai
jaga sawabhiman hai
sunke pukar teri
sare hi saagaro ke tat par hai teri pransha
? tera har har shaetar hai pransha

Mother, I bow to you, Mother, I bow.
Mother, I bow to you, again and again.

Blessed, fruitful, cooled by sandalwood,
Dark and verdant, Mother, I bow.

Rivers flow, rustling, whispering,
Winds caress, seasons gleam.
Mother, I bow.
Forests whisper, boughs entwine,
Moonlight falls, dreams enshrine,
Kissing your feet, we drink the stream
Of your cool smile, your grace supreme.
Mother, I bow, again and again.

Mother, I bow, again and again.

Oh, Mother India, you never despair,
The world sings your praise, beyond compare.
Your devotion shines, a radiant art.
You are embodied, you have a myriad heart,
And countless arms, in strength they bloom.
Your praise echoes on every ocean's foam,
In every field, your glory is home.

You are wisdom, you are dharma's light,
You are the ultimate, shining bright.
Love's creation, the gentle art,
Limitless compassion in your heart.
You are the light, the thought, the dream,
Patience, meditation's gleam.
Awakened pride, a vibrant theme,
Hearing your call, we truly beam.
Your praise echoes on every ocean's foam,
In every field, your glory is home.

Blessed, fruitful, cooled by sandalwood,
Dark and verdant, Mother, I bow.
Mother, I bow, again and again.
Blessed, fruitful, cooled by sandalwood,
Dark and verdant, Mother, I bow.
Mother, I bow, again and again.
Mother, I bow.
