Greetings,
on the occasion of 74th Republic day of my motherland, I have shared a performance of myself playing the National Anthem of the Republic of India.
Hope you Like it.
I take pride to share that India's National Anthem is the only State anthem in the world which is dedicated to Creator of the world - God.
The song Jana-gana-mana, composed originally in Bangla by Rabindranath Tagore, was adopted in its Hindi version by the Constituent Assembly as the National Anthem of India on January 24, 1950.
Lyrics:
Jana-gana-mana-adhinayaka jaya he
Bharata-bhagya-vidhata
Punjaba-Sindhu-Gujarata-Maratha
Dravida-Utkala-Banga
Vindhya-Himachala-Yamuna-Ganga
uchchala-jaladhi-taranga
Tava Shubha name jage, tava shubha asisa mage,
gahe tava jaya-gatha.
Jana-gana-mangala-dayaka jaya he
Bharata-bhagya-vidhata.
Jaya he, Jaya he, Jaya he,
jaya jaya jaya, jaya he.
Translation:
You are the ruler of minds of people, let the victory be with you,
The dispenser of the destiny of India -Punjab, Sindh, Gujarat, Maratha, Dravid, Orissa, Bengal
There are echoes in the hills of Vidhya, and the Himalayas and music is mingled in Yamuna, and Ganga which is chanted by foaming waves of the Indian Sea
Wake up listening to the auspicious name of yours and pray for your blessings, The saving of all the people is lying in your hands.
You are the one to impart well-being to the people, the dispenser of the destiny of India
May you get victory, victory, and victory for you!
Originally, it was a Brahmo hymn named “Bharoto Bhagyo Bidhata”, written in Bengali, Sanskrit which contained five stanzas. Today, the anthem which is sung is a snippet of the song as only a single paragraph is adopted as the National Anthem of India. It depicts the religious, regional and cultural unity and diversity of the country. This beloved song of India reflects the emotions which are reverberated in unison.
The National Anthem of India was first sung on December 21 in the year 1911 at the annual conference of the Indian National Congress. Jana Gana Mana was translated by Abid Ali into Hindi and Urdu. It was on January 24, 1950, after Independence that the Constitution of India officially declared Jana Mana Gana as the “National Anthem of India”.
The underlying meaning of our National Anthem is pluralism. It talks about the differences of culture, creed, caste and religion and the feeling of unity which lie inside every Indian.
Thanks and Regards,
