India's Time is Here: PM Modi

(Poem recited by India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi on India’s 75th Independence Day)

यही समय है, सही समय है,

भारत का अनमोल समय है।

असंख्य भुजाओं की शक्ति है,

हर तरफ़ देश की भक्ति है,

तुम उठो तिरंगा लहरा दो,

भारत के भाग्य को फहरा दो:

यही समय है, सही समय है,

भारत का अनमोल समय है।

कुछ ऐसा नहीं जो कर ना सको,

कुछ ऐसा नहीं जो पा ना सको,

तुम उठ जाओ, तुम जुट जाओ,

सामर्थ्य को अपने पहचानो,

कर्तव्य को अपने सब जानो,

भारत का ये अनमोल समय है,

यही समय है, सही समय है:

This is the time, the right time

Precious time of India,

There’s a power of innumerable arms,

There is patriotism everywhere,

Get up and wave the tricolour,

Hoist India’s fate,

This is the time, the right time

Precious time of India,

There’s nothing that you can’t achieve,

Get up and start working,

Know your potential,

Know your duty to all,

This is the precious time of India,

It’s time, right time”.
