Republic Day is round the corner and we will start our day watching the Republic Day Parade on T.V and listening to patriotic songs on loudspeakers. Here is a list of Patriotic songs of all times.
Sung by the great Lata Mangeshkar, this is a song dedicated to all the brave and courageous soldiers who have sacrificed their life for the nation. It is said that the prime minister of that time, Jawaharlal Nehru was in tears when Lata Mangeshkar sang this song for the first time, such is the aura of this song. Do watch it and feel proud to be Indian.
Picturised in the movie Sikandar-E-Azam (1965) and sung by the legendary singer Mohd. Rafi, this song is sung during the time when India was referred as ' Sone ki Chidiya' . The lyrics are beyond comparison and the music is really pleasant.
Again a song from the Movie 'Shaheed' , it is believed that Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev and Rajguru sang this song when they were being taken to be hanged. The words of this song are so touching that they make you think about the struggle our freedom fighters went through to make India independent.
Song - Ye Jo Des Hai Tera Film - Swades Singer - A.R. Rahman Lyricist - Javed Akhtar Music Director - A.R. Rahman . This song makes you cry everytime you hear it, specially if you are far away from your country. It will give you goosebumps always if you are a patriot.
Music video by Shankar Mahadevan;Sonu Nigam;Hariharan;Roop Kumar Rathod;Kunal Ganjawala;Vijay Prakash. This song is from the movie 'Lakshya'. It is a song again picturised on the soldiers who are fighting to protect our country everyday, without caring for their life.
Every child is heard singing this song. The innocence and the patriotism in this song is so heart touching and overwhelming to see. We need the same spirit and love for the country among the youth of our country.
