"Jay Jay Garvi Gujarāt"[a] is a poem written by Gujarati poet Narmadashankar Dave in 1873. It is used as a state anthem during ceremonies of the Government of Gujarat.[1][2]

Composition

[edit]

Narmad is considered the first modern Gujarati writer. He wrote the poem in 1873 as the foreword of his first Gujarati dictionary, Narmakosh.[3][4][2]

In this poem, Narmad epitomises the sense of pride in the region by identifying the region of Gujarati people. He delineates the boundary within which the Gujarati-speaking population live: Ambaji in the north; Pavagadh in the east; Kunteshwar Mahadev near Vapi in the south; and Somnath, Dwarka in the west. This region mentioned by him now forms modern-day Gujarat, the western state of India.[3][5][2] At the end of the poem, Narmad gives hope to the people of Gujarat that the dark clouds is lifting, and a new dawn is about to emerge.[6]

In 2011, the composition sung by various Gujarati singers was released by the Government of Gujarat.[1]

જય જય ગરવી ગુજરાત!
જય જય ગરવી ગુજરાત,
દીપે અરુણું પરભાત,
જય જય ગરવી ગુજરાત!

ધ્વજ પ્રકાશશે
ઝળળ કસુંબી,
પ્રેમ શૌર્ય અંકિત;
તું ભણવ ભણવ
નિજ સંતજિ સઉને,
પ્રેમ ભક્તિની રીત
ઊંચી તુજ સુંદર જાત,
જય જય ગરવી ગુજરાત!

ઉત્તરમાં અંબા માત,
પૂરવમાં કાળી માત,
છે દક્ષિણ દિશમાં કરંત રક્ષા,
કુંતેશ્વર મહાદેવ;
ને સોમનાથ ને દ્ધારકેશ એ,
પશ્વિમ કેરા દેવછે
સહાયમાં સાક્ષાત,
જય જય ગરવી ગુજરાત!

નદી તાપી નર્મદા જોય,
મહી ને બીજી પણ જોય.
વળી જોય સુભટના
જુદ્ધ રમણને,
રત્નાકર સાગર;
પર્વત ઉપરથી વીર પૂર્વજો,
દે આશિષ જયકર
સંપે સોયે સઉ જાત,
જય જય ગરવી ગુજરાત!

તે અણહિલવાડના રંગ,
તે સિદ્ધ્રરાજ જયસિંગ.
તે રંગ થકી પણ અધિક સરસ રંગ,
થશે સત્વરે માત!
શુભ શકુન દીસે
મધ્યાહ્ન શોભશે,
વીતી ગઈ છે રાત.
જન ઘૂમે નર્મદા સાથ,
જય જય ગરવી ગુજરાત!

Jay jay garvi Gujarāt,
Jay jay garvi Gujarāt!
Dipe aruṇũ parbhāt,
Jay jay garvi Gujarāt!

Dhvaj prakāshashe
Jhaḷaḷ kasumbi,
Prem shaurya ankit;
Tũ bhaṇav bhaṇav
Nij santaji saune,
Prem bhaktini rit
Ũci tuj sundar jāt,
Jay jay garvi Gujarāt!

Uttarmã amba māt,
Purvamã kāḷi māt,
Che dakṣiṇ dishmã karant rakṣa,
Kunteshvar mahādev;
Ne somnāth ne ddhārkesh e,
Pashvim kera devche
Sahāymã sākṣāt,
Jay jay garvi Gujarāt!

Nadi tāpi narmada joy,
Mahi ne biji paṇ joy.
Vaḷi joy subhaṭna
Juddh ramaṇne,
Ratnākar sāgar;
Parvat uparthi vir purvajo,
De āshiṣ jaykar
Sampe soye sau jāt,
Jay jay garvi Gujarāt!

Te aṇhilvāḍnā rang,
Te siddhrarāj jaysing.
Te rang thaki paṇ adhik saras rang,
Thashe satvare māt!
Shubh shakun dise
Madhyāhn shobhashe,
Viti gai che rāt.
Jan ghume narmada sāth,
Jay jay garvi Gujarāt!

Victory to proud Gujarat,
Victory to proud Gujarat!
Where glorious dawn shines,
Victory to proud Gujarat!

Thy scarlet flag
with love marked
and valour shall shine;
teach and teach
thy children daily,
the way of love and devotion.
Thy kind is high and beautiful,
Victory to proud Gujarat!

In the north houses Goddess Amba,
in the east houses Goddess Kali,
in the south guarded by
Kunteshwer Mahadev;
Somnath and lord of Dwarka,
the Gods of the west
are all on guard.
Victory to proud Gujarat!

The rivers of Narmada, Tapi,
Mahi and others do flow.
Look at the battles
fought by our gallant warriors,
and the sea of abundant resources.
From the tops of hills,
our gallant fathers bless for victory
and unite all castes.
Victory to proud Gujarat!

The olden glory of Anhilwad
and the mighty king Siddharaj Jaisinh
through aeons shall be surpassed,
O Mother!
The night hath passed,
the omen are blessed,
daytime shall rise.
People with Narmada dance.
Victory to proud Gujarat!
