भारत की रेल महान है।
प्रगति की पहचान है।
भारत की ये शान है।
देश की ये जान है।
इंडियन रेलवेज वी लव इंडियन रेलवेज।
आंधी आयें तूफां आयें
इसका तो चलना है काम
पर्वत जंगल दरिया घाटी
पार करें न ले विश्राम
बैठ के इसमें सफर करें
ये हर दिल का अरमान है
भारत की ये शान है
देश की ये जान है
इंडियन रेलवेज वी लव इंडियन रेलवेज।
तेज चले और सेफ चले
वक्त की पाबंदी से चले
रेल बढ़े तो देश बढ़े
रेल के फूल से देश खिले
भारत के अर्थ विकास में
रेल प्रथम सौपान है
भारत की ये शान है।
देश की ये जान है।
इंडियन रेलवेज वी लव इंडियन रेलवेज।
सरहद पर सेना बन जाए
और दुश्मन को सबक सिखाए
मंदिर मस्जिद और गुरूद्वारा
सबको तीरथ करवाये
देश को ऐसे जोड़ा
एकता का ये निशान है
भारत की ये शान है।
देश की ये जान है।
इंडियन रेलवेज वी लव इंडियन रेलवेज।
इंजन डिब्बा पटरी सिग्नल
इनकी हिफाजत में मशगूल
रेल के मजदूरों की वफाई
करता सारा मुल्क कबूल
पटरी की सलामती में
कीमैन लगाते जान है
भारत की ये शान है।
देश की ये जान है।
इंडियन रेलवेज वी लव इंडियन रेलवेज।
भारत की रेल महान है
प्रगति की पहचान है
भारत की ये शान है।
देश की ये जान है।
इंडियन रेलवेज वी लव इंडियन रेलवेज।
भारतीय रेल अपनी भारतीय रेल
इंडियन रेलवेज वी लव इंडियन रेलवेज।
