Hindi Lyrics: 

जन गण मन अधिनायक जय हे
भारत भाग्यविधाता
पंजाब सिन्धु गुजरात मराठा
द्राविड़ उत्कल बंगा
विन्ध्य हिमाचल यमुना गंगा
उच्छल जलधि तरंगा
तव शुभ नामे जागे
तव शुभ आशीष मांगे
गाहे तव जयगाथा

जन गण मंगलदायक जय हे
भारत भाग्यविधाता
जय हे, जय हे, जय हे
जय जय जय जय हे!


English Lyrics : 

Jana gana mana adhi naayaka jaya hai! 
Bhaarat bhaagya vidhaata 
Punjab Sindh Gujarat Maraatha, 
Dravid Utkala Bangaa. 
Vindhya Himachala Yamuna Ganga, 
Uchhala jaladhi taranga. 
Tava shubh naame jaage, 
Tava shubh aashish maage, 
Gahe tava jaya-gaatha. 

Jana-gana-mangaladayaka jaya hai! 
Bharat bhagya vidhata. 
Jaya hai! Jaya hai! Jaya hai! 
Jaya Jaya Jaya Jaya hai!
