'Sare Jahan se Accha' (Urdu: سارے جہاں سے اچھا; Sāre Jahāṉ se Acchā), formally known as 'Tarānah-e-Hindi' (Urdu: ترانۂ ہندی, 'Anthem of the People of Hindustan'), is an Urdu language patriotic song for children written by poet Muhammad Iqbal in the ghazal style of Urdu poetry.[a] The poem was published in the weekly journal Ittehad on 16 August 1904.[1] Publicly recited by Iqbal the following year at Government College, Lahore, British India (now in Pakistan) it quickly became an anthem of opposition to the British Raj. The song, an ode to Hindustan—the land comprising present-day Bangladesh, India and Pakistan, was later published in 1924 in the Urdu book Bang-i-Dara.[2]
The song has remained popular, but only in India.[b] An abridged version is sung and played frequently as a patriotic song and as a marching song of the Indian Armed Forces.[3]

English translation[edit]
Better than the entire world, is our Hind,
We are its nightingales, and it (is) our garden abode
If we are in an alien place, the heart remains in the homeland,
Know us to be only there where our heart is.
That tallest mountain, that shade-sharer of the sky,
It (is) our sentry, it (is) our watchman
In its lap where frolic thousands of rivers,
Whose vitality makes our garden the envy of Paradise.
O the flowing waters of the Ganges, do you remember that day
When our caravan first disembarked on your waterfront?
Religion does not teach us to bear animosity among ourselves
We are of Hind, our homeland is Hindustan.
In a world in which ancient Greece, Egypt, and Rome have all vanished
Our own attributes (name and sign) live on today.
There is something about our existence for it doesn't get wiped
Even though, for centuries, the time-cycle of the world has been our enemy.
Iqbal! We have no confidant in this world
What does any one know of our hidden pain?
Composition[edit]
Iqbal was a lecturer at the Government College, Lahore at that time, and was invited by a student Lala Har Dayal to preside over a function. Instead of delivering a speech, Iqbal sang 'Saare Jahan Se Achcha'. The song, in addition to embodying yearning and attachment to the land of Hindustan, expressed 'cultural memory' and had an elegiac quality. In 1905, the 27-year-old Iqbal viewed the future society of the subcontinent as both a pluralistic and composite Hindu-Muslim culture. Later that year he left for Europe for a three-year sojourn that was to transform him into an Islamic philosopher and a visionary of a future Islamic society.[2]
Iqbal's transformation and Tarana-e-Milli[edit]
In 1910, Iqbal wrote another song for children, 'Tarana-e-Milli' (Anthem of the Religious Community), which was composed in the same metre and rhyme scheme as 'Saare Jahan Se Achcha', but which renounced much of the sentiment of the earlier song.[6] The sixth stanza of 'Saare Jahan Se Achcha' (1904), which is often quoted as proof of Iqbal's secular outlook:

Maẕhab nahīṉ sikhātā āpas meṉ bair rakhnā | Religion does not teach us to bear ill-will among ourselves |
contrasted significantly with the first stanza of Tarana-e-Milli (1910) reads:[6]
Chīn o-ʿArab hamārā, Hindūstāṉ hamārā | Central Asia[7] and Arabia are ours, Hindustan is ours |
Iqbal's world view had now changed; it had become both global and Islamic. Actia multi diag keygen download mediafire. Instead of singing of Hindustan, 'our homeland,' the new song proclaimed that 'our homeland is the whole world.'[8] Two decades later, in his presidential address to the Muslim League annual conference in Allahabad in 1930, he supported a separate nation-state in the Muslim majority areas of the sub-continent, an idea that inspired the creation of Pakistan.[9]
Popularity in India and in popular culture[edit]
- Saare Jahan Se Achcha has remained popular in India for nearly a century. Mahatma Gandhi is said to have sung it over a hundred times when he was imprisoned at Yerawada Jail in Pune in the 1930s.[10]
- In the 1930s and 1940s, it was sung to a slower tune. In 1945, while working in Mumbai with IPTA (Indian Peoples Theater Association), the sitarist Pandit Ravi Shankar was asked to compose the music for the K.A. Abbas movie Dharti ka Laal and the Chetan Anand movie Neecha Nagar. During this time, Ravi Shankar was asked to compose music for the song Saare jahan se accha. In an interview in 2009 with Shekhar Gupta, Ravi Shankar recounts that he felt that the existing tune was too slow and sad. To give it a more inspiring impact, he set it to a stronger tune which is today the popular tune of this song, which they then tried out as a group song.[11] It was later recorded by the singer Lata Mangeshkar to a 3rd altogether different tune. Stanzas (1), (3), (4), and (6) of the song became an unofficial national song in India,[1] and the Ravi Shankar version was adopted as the official quick march of the Indian Armed Forces.[12] The song was set as a marching tune by Antsher Lobo.[citation needed]
- Rakesh Sharma, the first Indian astronaut, employed the first line of the song in 1984 to describe to then prime minister Indira Gandhi how India appeared from outer space.[13]
- In his inaugural speech, the former prime minister of India Manmohan Singh quoted this poem at his first press conference after becoming the Prime Minister.[10]
- The song is popular in India in schools, and as a marching song for the Indian armed forces, played during public events and parades.[2] It is played by the Armed forces Massed Bands each year for the Indian Independence day, republic day and at the culmination of Beating the Retreat.[14]
