Wow, it feels great to be posting the Indian National Anthem on this blog. It will be 62 years of independence on 15th of this month, August 2009. We all know history, and we all know how our great freedom fighters lost their lives to make India free. So, lets remember all those greatest brave souls of the country today.
Some facts about the Indian National Anthem "Jana Gana Mana" that you may or may not know.
Jana Gana Mana is written by the great Rabindranath Tagore, and was originally composed by Ram singh Thakur in 1911 and was first sung at the Indian National congress on 27th Dec, 1911.
Jana Gana Mana was officially announced as the Indian National Anthem on January 24th, 1950 by the Constituent assembly, just two days before the Indian Republic day.
Although written in Bengali, the pronunciation of the anthem varies considerably across India due to the country's extensive linguistic diversity.
Here's the official English Translation of the Indian National Anthem, Jana Gana Mana
O! Dispenser of India's destiny, thou art the ruler of the minds of all people
Thy name rouses the hearts of Punjab, Sindh, Gujarat, the Maratha country,
in the Dravida, Utkala and Bengal;
It echoes in the hills of the Vindhyas and Himalayas,
it mingles in the rhapsodies of the pure waters of Yamuna and Ganga
They chant only thy name.
They seek only thy auspicious blessings.
They sing only the glory of thy victory.
The salvation of all people waits in thy hands,
O! Dispenser of India's destiny, thou art the ruler of the minds of all people
Victory to thee, Victory to thee, Victory to thee,
Victory, Victory, Victory, Victory to thee!
