Noble souls renowned in all the continents.
It is the land that ousted the
Foreign rulers and achieved freedom.
This Bharat is reputed for its scholarship.
It is the sacred land that stood forth
As the exemplar in the realms of music,
literature and sacred lore;
Born in the land of Bharat,
noted for its fine arts and natural beauty,
Oh devotees! It is your bounden duty to foster
The glory and prosperity of the Motherland.
[Telugu poem]
Divinity is more resplendent than the sun,
Purer than the purest snow,
Subtler than the sky and space,
