Indian National Anthem
Jana gana mana adhinayaka jaya he
Bharat bhagya vidhata
Punjab Sindhu Gujarat Maratha Dravida Utkala Banga
Vindhya Himachal Yamuna Ganga
Ucchala jaladhi tarang
Tave subha name jage,
Tava subha asis mange,
Gaye tave jaya gatha.
Jana gana mana adhinayaka jaya he
Bharat bhagya vidhata
Jaya he, Jaya he, Jaya he
Jaya jaya jaya, jaye he.
– Rabindranath Tagore
