Sujalam , Sufalam, Malayj Sheetalam,

I bow to thee, Mother,
richly-watered, richly-fruited,
cool with the winds of the south,

Sasyashyamalam, Mataram !

dark with the crops of the harvests, the Mother! 

Shubhrajyotsna Pulakitayaminim,

Her nights rejoicing in the glory of the

Pullakusumita Drumadal Shobhinim,

moonlight,
her lands clothed beautifully with

Suhasinim, Sumadhur Bhashinim,

her trees in flowering bloom,
sweet of laughter, sweet 

Sukhadam, Vardam, Mataram !

of speech,
the Mother, giver of boons,

(Composed by Bankim Chanda Chatterji)

giver of bliss.

(The English translation of the stanza rendered by Sri Aurobindo)
