Vande Mataram, composed in Sanskrit by Bankimchandra Chatterji. It is taken from the famous novel of Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay, Anandamath

It has an equal status with National Anthem of India i.e. Jana-gana-mana. The first political occasion when it was sung was the 1896 session of the Indian National Congress.

Text of Vande Matram
vande mātaram
sujalāṃ suphalāṃ
malayajaśītalām
śasya śyāmalāṃ
mātaram
vande mātaram

śubhra jyotsnam
pulakita yāminīm
phulla kusumita
drumadalaśobhinīm
suhāsinīṃ
sumadhura bhāṣiṇīm
sukhadāṃ varadāṃ
mātaram
vande mātaram
