In plain words
Famed in continent after continent, the motherland that bore great souls; having driven out the Western warriors, the battlefield that won freedom; having gained great renown for its scholarship, the land of Bharata that showed its genius; in music, in letters and in the sciences the divine land that showed the power of the intellect; wondrous with the arts of painting: born in this land of Bharata, to guard Mother Bharata's fortune of Dharma, the whole responsibility is yours alone, boys!
Embodiments of Prema!
In Bhārata the system of education, rich in so many arts, is today taking on a form bereft of strength. It is gathering in nothing but the value of degrees. This degree serves only to take a diploma in hand and fill the belly. Are degrees for the purpose of solving the problems of society, or are degrees merely for the purpose of gaining book knowledge? No one is making an inquiry of this kind: not the students, not the educational authorities, not the students' parents.
