The translated version, titled "The Morning Song of India," reads, "Thou art the ruler of the minds of all people, dispenser of India's destiny. Thy name rouses the hearts of the Punjab, Sindh, Gujarat, and Maratha. of the Dravida, Orissa, and Bengal. It echoes in the hills of the Vindhyas and Himalayas, mingles in the music of the Yamuna and Ganges, and is chanted by the waves of the Indian Ocean. They pray for your blessings and sing your praise. The saving of all people waits in thy hand, thou dispenser of India's destiny. Victory, victory, victory to you!
India's first Nobel Laureate, Rabindranath Tagore, originally composed the hymn as "Bharoto Bhagyo Bidhata" in Bengali on December 11, 1911. The first out of the five stanzas of the song was adopted by the Constituent Assembly of India as the National Anthem on January 24, 1950.
