Punjab sindhu Gujarata maratha

Dravida utkala ganga

Vindhya himachala Yamuna ganga

Uchala jaladhi taranga

Tava shubha name jage

Gahe tava jaya gatha

Jana gana mangala dayaka jaya he

Bharata bhagya vidhata

Jaya he, jaya he, jaya he

Jaya jaya , jaya, jaya he!

Scout/Guide Prayer Song :

Daya kar dan bhakti ka

Hamen pareamathma Dena,

Daya karana hamari atma

Men suddhata Dena.

Hamare dhyan men aoo

Prabhu ankho men bas jao.

Andheri dill men aakar ke

Param jyothi jaga Dena.

Bahado prem ki ganga

Dilon men prem ka sagar,

Hamen apas me miljulkar

Prabhu rehna sikha Dena.

Hamara kaarm ho seva,

Hamara dharm ho seva,

Sadai man ho seva ho

Sevakchar Bana Dena.

Vatan ke vaste jeena,

Vatan ke vastes marna,

Vatan per jan Fida karma

Prabhuy hamko sikha Dena.
