Guest guest Posted April 4, 2003 Report Share Posted April 4, 2003 FYI, here are the words and a translation of India's patriotic song "Vande Mataram". Bharat Mata Ki Jai! Keval +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Vande Mataram, Sujalam Sufalam Malayaja Sheetalam, Sasya Shyamalama, Mataram! Mother, I bow to thee! Rich with thy hurrying streams, bright with orchard gleams, Cool with thy winds of delight, Dark fields waving Mother of might, Mother free. Subhra Jyotsanam - Pullakita - Yamini, Fula- Kusumita -Drumadala - Shobhinim Suhasinim Sumadhur - Bhashinim Sukhadam Varadam Mataram Vande Mataram! Glory of moonlight dreams, Over thy branches and lordly streams, Clad in thy blossoming trees, Mother, giver of ease Laughing low and sweet! Mother I kiss thy feet, Speaker sweet and low! Mother, to thee I bow. Sapta koti - Kantha Kalakala Ninad Karale Sapta Koti Bhujaii Dhrut Kharkarwale Ke bale Ma tum hi abale Bahubala - Dharini Namami Tarinim Ripudal - Varinim, Mataram Vande Mataram Who hath said thou art weak in thy lands, When the sword flesh out in the seventy million hands And seventy million voices roar Thy dreadful name from shore to shore? With many strengths who art mighty and stored, To thee I call Mother and Lord! Though who savest, arise and save! To her I cry who ever her foeman drove Back from plain and Sea And shook herself free. Tumhi Vidya Tumhi Dharma Tumhi Hrudi Tumhi Marma Tvahi Pranah Sharire! Bahute Tumhi Ma Shakti Hrudaye Tumhi Ma Bhakti Tomarahi Pratima Gadi Mandire Mandire Thou art wisdom, thou art law, Thou art heart, our soul, our breath Though art love divine, the awe In our hearts that conquers death. Thine the strength that nerves the arm, Thine the beauty, thine the charm. Every image made divine In our temples is but thine. Tvahi Durga Dashapraharana - Dharini Kamala Kamal - Dal - Viharinim Vani Vidyadayini Namami Tvam Namami Kamalam Amalam Atulam Sujalam Sufalam Mataram, Vande Mataram Shyamalam Saralam Susmitam Bhushitam Dharanim Bharanim Mataram Thou art Durga, Lady and Queen, With her hands that strike and her swords of sheen, Thou art Lakshmi lotus-throned, And the Muse a hundred-toned, Pure and perfect without peer, Mother lend thine ear, Rich with thy hurrying streams, Bright with thy orchard gleems, Dark of hue O candid-fair In thy soul, with jewelled hair And thy glorious smile divine, Lovilest of all earthly lands, Showering wealth from well-stored hands! Mother, mother mine! Mother sweet, I bow to thee, Mother great and free! Tax Center - File online, calculators, forms, and more http://tax.
