Indian Independence Day - August 15th 1947 |
| |
India
gained independence after nearly 200 years of British
rule on 15 August 1947
and Indian tricolor flag was unfurled by Jawaharlal
Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India, on the ramparts
the Red Fort of Delhi. This was preceded by Pandit Jawaharlal
Nehru's famous speech titled Tryst with destiny:
….“Long
years ago we made a tryst with destiny, and now the
time comes when we will redeem our pledge, not wholly
or in full measure, but very substantially. At the
stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps,
India will awake to life and freedom. A moment comes,
which comes but rarely in history, when we step out
from the old to the new, when an age ends and when
the soul of a nation, long suppressed, finds utterance....
We end today a period of ill fortune, and India discovers
herself again."

Translation
into English
O! Dispenser of India's destiny, thou art the
ruler of the minds of all people[9]
Thy name rouses the hearts of Punjab, Sindh,
Gujarat, the Maratha country,
in the Dravida country, Utkala and Bengal;
It echoes in the hills of the Vindhyas and Himalayas,
it mingles in the rhapsodies of the pure waters
of Yamuna and the Ganges.
They chant only thy name.
They seek only thy auspicious blessings.
They sing only the glory of thy victory.
The salvation of all people waits in thy hands,
O! Dispenser of India's destiny, thou art the
ruler of the minds of all people
Victory to thee, Victory to thee, Victory to
thee,
Victory, Victory, Victory, Victory to thee!.
