rat zulm ki kat jayegi
bhagega andhiyara, dur nahi ujiyara
rat zulm ki kat jayegi
bhagega andhiyara, dur nahi ujiyara
dur nahi ujiyara
rat zulm ki kat jayegi
bhagega andhiyara, dur nahi ujiyara
dur nahi ujiyara

tufano ke bich desh ka tu hi hai dhurvtara
tu aazadi ki kashti ka keval ek sahara
andhiyari raho par tune
andhiyari raho par tune
chalkar yahi pukara, dur nahi ujiyara

zalim ki hasti ko tune
aage bhad dhitkara
teri kurbani ne soye viro ko lalkara
sun lo sadiya yaad karegi
sun lo sadiya yaad karegi
tera zohar pyara, dur nahi ujiyara
rat zulm ki kat jayegi
bhagega andhiyara, dur nahi ujiyara
dur nahi ujiyara

amar shahid chita par teri
laga rahega mela
tune apne khun se likha
ye itihash sunhara
ye itihash sunhara
gaye firangi ab leharaya
ye arman tumhara, aaj hua ujiyara
vandematram vandematram
vandematram vandematram

The night of tyranny shall break,
Darkness will flee, dawn is near, awake.
The night of tyranny shall break,
Darkness will flee, dawn is near, awake.
Dawn is near, awake.
The night of tyranny shall break,
Darkness will flee, dawn is near, awake.
Dawn is near, awake.

Amidst the storms, you, the pole star of the land,
You are the sole support of freedom's command.
On darkened paths, you,
On darkened paths, you,
Have called out this truth: dawn is near, expand.

You scorned the oppressor's very being,
Your sacrifice roused the sleeping, seeing.
Hear, the ages shall remember,
Hear, the ages shall remember,
Your valor, endearing, dawn is near, freeing.
The night of tyranny shall break,
Darkness will flee, dawn is near, awake.
Dawn is near, awake.

On your immortal pyre,
A fair shall forever bloom.
With your blood, you have written,
This golden, glorious room.
This golden, glorious room.
The foreigners have gone, now unfurled,
Your cherished dream, today, dawn has bloomed.
Vande Mataram, Vande Mataram,
Vande Mataram, Vande Mataram.
