VAIDIKA RASHTRA GANAM
VAIDIKA RASHTRA GAANAM
The following is the English version of a Yajurveda manthra which is also called as `Vaidik Rashtra Gaanam’ This can be recited by persons from any nationality or regions who wish to see their country is prosperous (for example like Ram Rajya).
O! Supreme Being, let there be born in our Nation,
The intellectuals – possessing spiritual splendor
The military men – brave, skilled in warfare,
Mighty warrior and
Destroyer of the enemies;
Let there be born – the cow, giving abundant milk;
The ox, carrier of heavy loads;
The horse of high speed;
The women skilled in domestic affairs;
The son this devotee, while he attains his youth-
Be heroic and highly cultured.
May the clouds rain on the required occasions.
May the fruit-bearing trees bear ripe fruits
In abundance.
May the power of acquisition and perseverance of wealth ever remain with us
And last but not the least
May we remain ever vigilant in the Nation and
Come forward for its protection. (Yajur Veda 22-22)
