English translation

Pallavi
Among all countries in the world,
India is the best country.

Charanam
1. In wisdom, in divine thought,
In high respectability, In free supply of food,
In music and in poem drenched with nectar,
It is the best country.

2. In bravery, in valour, in the wetness,
Of the mind, in wanting to help to others,
In meaning of life and in discovering of science,
It is the best country.

3. In goodness, in strength of the body, in plurality,
Of wealth, In the valorous attachments to the country,
And in the virtue of ladies who are like golden peacock,
It is the best country.

4. In income, in encouragement for work, In bodily,
Strength in high ideals and in the sea like army,
Of wrestlers capable of protecting the country,
It is the best country.

5. In strength, in greatness of mind, in the state,
Of the mind, in the sharpness of intellect,
In truth and in the feeling which never fails of the poets,
It is the best country.

6. In fire sacrifices, in the speed of penance, In the art,
Of Yoga, In great many enjoyments, in mind and body,
In the grace of those who are devotees of God,
It is the best country.

7. In rivers, in springs of streams, in slow breezes,
In being endowed with mountains, in prayers,
In the animals which give great production,
It is the best country.

8. In the garden, in the crowds of trees, in fruit harvest,
In the healthy crops and in great earnings,
And in the treasure which does not get exhausted,
It is the best country.
