The national song from India .. gratitude to mother earth. Sung with sign language and featuring beautiful ancient tribal people ..
- Vande Maataram! Vande Maataram!
Sujalam, suphalam, malayaja shitalam,
Shasyashyamalam, Maataram!
Shubhrajyotsna pulakitayaminim,
Phullakusumita drumadala shobhinim,
Suhasinim sumadhura bhashinim,
Sukhadam varadam, Maataram!
Vande Maataram! Vande Maataram!
I have modified the English translation of the song rendered earlier by Sri Aurobindo to
reflect my own spirit:
- I bow in reverence to you, my Motherland,
I bow in respect.
Richly-watered, richly-fruited,
Cool with the sandal fragrant winds of the south,
Dark with the crops of the harvests,
O Motherland!
Rejoicing her nights in the glory of the moonlight,
Beautifully clothed with her trees in flowering bloom,
Gentle in humor, sweet in speech,
Fulfiller of wishes, giver of happiness, o Motherland
I bow in gratitude to you Motherland,
I bow in reverence.
