Lyrics in Sanskrit/Hindi and English:

प्रकृत्या सुरम्यं विशालं प्रकामम्

सरित्तारहारैः ललालं निकामम्

हिमाद्रिः ललाटे पदे चैव सिन्धुः

प्रियं भारतं तत् सर्वथा दर्शनीयम्

prakṛtyā suramyaṃ viśālaṃ prakāmam

sarittārahāraiḥ lalālaṃ nikāmam

himādriḥ lalāṭe pade caiva sindhuḥ

priyaṃ bhārataṃ sarvathā darśanīyam

धनानां निधानं धरायां प्रधानम्

इदं भारतं देवलोकेन तुल्यम्

यशो यस्य शुभ्रं विदेशेषु गीतम्

प्रियं भारतं तत् सदा पूजनीयम्

dhanānāṃ nidhānaṃ dharāyāṃ pradhānam

idaṃ bhārataṃ devalokena tulyam

yaśo yasya śubhraṃ videśeṣu gītam

priyaṃ bhārataṃ tat sadā pūjanīyam

अनेके प्रदेशा अनेके च वेषाः

अनेकानि रूपाणि भाषा अनेकाः

परं यत्र सर्वे वयं भारतीयाः

प्रियं भारतं तत् सदा रक्षणीयम्

aneke pradeśā aneke ca veṣāḥ

anekāni rūpāṇi bhāṣā anekāḥ

paraṃ yatra sarve vayaṃ bhāratīyāḥ

priyaṃ bhārataṃ tat sadā rakṣaṇīyam

सुधीरा जना यत्र युद्धेषु वीराः

शरीरार्पणेनापि रक्षन्ति देशम्

स्वधर्मानुरक्ताः सुशीलाश्च नार्यः

प्रियं भारतं तत् सदा श्लाघनीयम्

sudhīrā janā yatra yuddheṣu vīrāḥ

śarīrārpaṇenāpi rakṣanti deśam

svadharmānuraktāḥ suśīlāśca nāryaḥ

priyaṃ bhārataṃ tat sadā ślāghanīyam

वयं भारतीयाः स्वभूमिं नमामः

परं धर्ममेकं सदा मानयामः

यदर्थं धनं जीवनं चार्पयामः

प्रियं भारतं तत् सदा वन्दनीयम् 

bhāratīyāḥ svabhūmiṃ namāmaḥ

paraṃ dharmamekaṃ sadā mānayāmaḥ

yadarthaṃ dhanaṃ jīvanaṃ cārpayāmaḥ

priyaṃ bhārataṃ tat sadā vandanīyam
