Well said, good explanation @Ravi.

Many people think that India's national anthem was written by Rabindranath Tagore in honour of King George V and the Queen of England when they visited India in 1919. Infact it was first sung at the Calcutta Session of the Indian National Congress on 27 December 1911 but it was never meant to honour any king or queen (though their sycophant may have given them a english version suited to their feeders).
Tagore's poem (which was later adopted as National Anthem) indicates actual thinking and mentality of Indian People.

Read Carefully this poem Again. I have translated it to English also:

"Jan Gan Man Adhinayak Jai He"
( I Pray the leader who is leaving and rule in the mind of common and urban people );
--- Here Tagore indicate not only to the prime power but to the Most popular and ancient kings of India Like Ram who are still in Indian peoples thinking.

"Bharat Bhagya Vidhata"
( Builder of Indian future );
--- No any poet of India can give so much respect to any of emperor that he is builder of future of any country. It can only be the prime power i.e God.

"Tav shubh name jage
tav shubh ashish mange
gahe tav jay gatha"

( We wake up at morning by remembering your name,
We want your order to do any work,
We sing ur stories);

--- Now this is common habit of an Indian people at early morning that each Indian remember his/ her Mother and father, respected persons and God. Never did any Indian remembered British ruler at morning even in pre independence era.

We have always sought blessings of God and "tav shubh ashish mange " indicate this opinion.

"gahe tav jai gatha " indicates common habit of Indian that they pray to God by singing and remembering his ascent stories like Geeta and Ramayan.

" Jai he Jai he Jai he
Jai Jai Jai Jai he"

This also is an Indian Aarti rule that at the end of Aarti, pet loud volume.

Jai he Jai he and Jai he is "Victory, Victory, Victory to India". And he here represents Hind i.e India.

It is the national anthem of India. Written in highly Sanskritised (Tatsama) Bengali, it is composed and scored by Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore. It was first sung in Calcutta Session of the Indian National Congress on 27th December 1911. "Jana Gana Mana" was officially adopted by the Constituent Assembly as the Indian national anthem on 24 January 1950. 27 December 2011 marked the completion of 100 years of Jana Gana Mana since it was sung for the first time.

It was made for Jorj Pumchm as a welcome song before being National Anthem.
