Hoṭhò pe sachchaaee rahatee hai
jahàà dil mè safaaee rahatee hai
Ham us desh ke vaasee hài,
jis desh mè gangaa bahatee hai
Mehamaan jo hamaaraa hotaa hai,
vo jaan se pyaaraa hotaa hai
Zyaadaa kee nahee laalach ham ko
thoṛe me guzaaraa hotaa hai
Bachchò ke liye jo dharatee maa
sadiyò se sabhee kuchh sahatee hai
Ham us desh ke vaasi….
Kuchh log jo zyaada jaante hai,
insaan ko kam pahachaanate hai
Ye purab hai, purabvaale,
har jaan kee kimat jaante hai
Mil jul ke raho aur pyaar karo,
ek cheez yahee jo rahatee hai
Ham us desh ke vaasi hai….
Jo jisase milaa sikhaa hamane
gairò ko bhee apanaayaa hamne
Matalab ke liye andhe hokar,
Roṭee ko nahee pujaa hamane
Ab ham to kyaa saaree duniyaa,
saaree duniyaa se kahatee hai
Ham us desh ke vaasee hai.
Truth lives on our lips and purity lives in the heart. We are the inhabitants of that country of truth and cleanliness – the country in which the Ganges flow.
Our guests are dearer to us than life. We are satisfied with a little for our livelihood without being greedy. And our mother Earth has tolerated her children for centuries, in this country where the Ganges flow.
Whereas some people know a lot but cannot empathize with others, we of the East know the very value of life. We live together and love one another. One thing is known by all, we are the inhabitants of the country in which the Ganges flow.
We have taught everyone we met, we accepted outsiders as our own. We are not blinded by selfishness. We are not slaves to desires. To the whole world, we say, we are inhabitants of this country in which the Ganges flow.
