Ganga tera paani amrit jhar-jhar bahata jaaye
Yug-yug se is desh ki dharati tujhase jeevan paaye
Ganga tera paani ...
Door himaalay se tu aai geet suhaane gaati
Bastee-basti parvat-parvat sukh-sandesh sunaati
Teri chaandi jaisi dhaara meelon tak laharaaye
Ganga tera paani ...
Kitane sooraj ubhare-duube ganga tere dvaare
Yugon-yugon ki katha sunaayen tere bahate dhaare
Tujhako chhod ke bhaarat ka itihaas likha na jaaye
Ganga tera paani ...
Is dharati ka dukh-sukh toone apane beech samoya
Jab-jab desh gulaam hua hai tera paani roya
Jab-jab ham aazaad hue hain tere tat muskaaye
Ganga tera paani ...
Kheton-kheton tujhase jaagi dharati par hariyaali
Fasalen tera raag alaapen jhoome baalee-baali
Tera paani pi kar mitti sone mein dhal jaaye
Ganga tera paani ...
Tere daan ki daulat oonche khalihaanon mein dhalati
Kushiyon ke mele lagate mehanat ki daali phalati
Lahak-lahak kar dhoom machaate teri god mein jaaye
Ganga tera paani ...
