INDIAN RAILWAYS
BACK BONE OF INDIA
Chug-chug,
railway’s rhythmic song,
Jug-jug,
journey, swift and long.
Oh, Indian Railways, we sing your
praise,
You connect
our land in myriad ways.
Every nook and
corner, you reach with grace,
Uniting our
country’s vast
space.
Your massive
system, a marvel to see,
Our nation’s NERVE CENTER, proud and free.
Thirty millions you transport with
care,
Daily, you carry
them from here to there.
Over one lakh kilometer of track you stride,
A vital asset,
we take much
pride.
Sixty thousand coaches, passengers’ delight,
Whisking them
away, day and
night.
Freight traffic
too, by your
side,
Four hundred thousand wagons, a powerful ride.
Fourteen lakh
strong, your dedicated crew,
Operate efficiently, to the tasks they’re true.
Across this land,
from east to
west,
They serve with pride, their
very best.
In seven thousand stations, you stand very tall,
Pick up,
drop off,
one and all.
Fancy trains
with different
names,
In this grand
journey, each
has its claim.
Passenger,
Express,
Tejas trains,
Shatabdi,
Rajdhani
beautiful trains.
Vande Bharat,
your new
creation,
Wow, What a
World-class sophistication!
Your affordable transport within reach,
Bringing joy to people with lessons
to teach.
Hey,
Indian Railways,
you hold our hearts,
Incredible connections that always last.
If you perform
with no accidents in sight,
Your future would be gleaming
and bright,
May you grow from strength to
strength,
Oh,
Indian Railways, our trusted friend.
