Respect The National Anthem

See this video and you will understand what i wish to write in the post...
Although, the video could have been better but do not think that this video shows poverty.
Instead, this video is about the suppressed common man who still loves the country for whatever the country has given to him.


One of the best quotes on this video at youtube is :-

You can take out an Indian from India but u can't take out India from an Indian... Love You India...

No matter which country you belong to,
Respect The National Anthem........always.....

Uchchala-Jaladhi-taranga.
Tava shubha name jage,
Tava shubha asisa mange,
Gahe tava jaya gatha,

Bharata-bhagya-vidhata.

Jaya jaya jaya, jaya he!

Bharata-bhagya-vidhata.
Jaya he, jaya he, jaya he,

Playing time of the short version is about 20 seconds. The following is Tagore's 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 Vindhyas 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.
