suno sunate aaj tumhe hum
nehru ji ki amar kahani nehru ji ki amar kahani
chhodi jisne is dharti par, chhodi jisne is dharti par
karam yog ki amit nishani nehru ji ki amar kahani

maa ne ratan jawahar paya moti ko ek lal mila
athrah solwa si chaudah november
suraj ke sang uday hua, yug yug jiye mera raja
sabke muh se nikli vani, nehru ji ki amar kahani

aayu abhi the pandarh keval chala vilayat padhne ko
desh prem le lauta par wo rajniti me padhne ko
padi gulami ki janjire tod dalne ki thani
nehru ji ki amar kahani, aazadi ka mol hai kya
guru mantar ye gandhi ji se paya
satya ahinsa shanti pyar aur manwata ko apnaya dekh
kisano ka morcha ye hui angrejo ko hairani
nehru ji ki amar kahani

pandarh august san saintalish aazad tiranga lahraya
apne hi hatho nehru ne lal kile par fahraya
aayi kaam sahido ki aakhir me ek din kurbani
nehru ji ki amar kahani
sabka ho adhikar barabar parja tantar ki neev dhari
panch sheel ki bani yojna, naye kam se bhari padi
rakhwala ban majduro par rakhi sachi nigrani
nehru ji ki amar kahani
etam ke yug me bhi jisne shanti ka jhanda lahraya
yudh nahi hoga apas me pyar se sabko samjhaya
sabhi desho ne khule hariday se
baat jawahar ki mani nehru ji ki amar kahani

dharti kaapi aakash hila sahma samir yug badal gaya
panch tatar se bana di ye panch tatav me sawar gaya
pighal gaya himgir ka kaleja bilakh padi ganga maharani
bilakh padi ganga maharani jis dharti ne apni god me
nehru ko tha janam diya ab thi rakh us mitti ko de
rin se uske urin hua amar katha ye gata rahega
triveni ka paran pani triveni ka paran pani

Listen, I shall tell a tale,
Of Nehru, his eternal trail.
He left upon this earthly stage,
A legacy to engage,
Of Karma's mark, a timeless sign,
The saga of Nehru, so divine.

A mother's gem, a pearl so bright,
Jawahar, a ruby of pure light.
Born on the fourteenth, a November day,
With the sun, he lit the way.
"My king shall live for ages yet,"
From every mouth, a wish was set,
The saga of Nehru, so divine.

Fifteen, he sailed across the sea,
To study, to be scholarly.
But love of nation, a fire within,
To politics, he would soon begin.
Chains of bondage, he resolved to break,
For freedom's sake,
The saga of Nehru, so divine.
What is the price of liberty?
From Gandhi, he found the key.
Truth and peace, love and grace,
Humanity's embrace.
The farmers' plight, he saw with care,
The British, in dismay did stare,
The saga of Nehru, so divine.

August, forty-seven, the day arrived,
The tricolor, he revived.
With his own hand, upon the fort,
He raised the flag, of grand import.
The martyrs' work, at last complete,
Victory’s sweet,
The saga of Nehru, so divine.
Equality for all, he did decree,
Democracy, a growing tree.
Panchsheel's plan, a work so grand,
A new world, at his command.
Guardian of workers, he did strive,
Truly alive,
The saga of Nehru, so divine.
In the atomic age, his banner flew,
Of peace, for me and you.
War he opposed, with gentle art,
With open heart,
All nations listened, to his plea,
Jawahar's decree,
The saga of Nehru, so divine.

The earth did tremble, the sky did weep,
The wind did softly creep,
An era changed, the world reborn,
To the five elements, he was sworn.
The Himalayas' heart, in sorrow did melt,
The Ganga, her loss she felt.
The saga of Nehru, so divine.
The land that gave him birth,
Now took him back to earth.
His debt repaid, his story told,
A tale of old,
The confluence of waters, his final space,
His final embrace,
The confluence of waters, his final space.
