India is my country
All Indians are
my brothers and sisters.
I love my country
and I am proud of
its rich and varied heritage
I shall always strive
to be worthy of it
I shall give my parents
teachers and all elders
respect
and treat everyone
with courtesy
To my country
and my people
I pledge my devotion.
In their well-being
and prosperity alone
lies my happiness.
Our father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our sins,
as we forgive those who sin against us;
lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from the evil one.
O! God, who are truth,
and the origin of all knowledge,
bless our studies,
which we consecrate to you.
Enlighten our minds,
strengthen our memories
and direct our wills
towards what is right.
Grant us courage
to seek truth always,
and make us truly wise.
Dear God,
the class being over,
we are going home,
we thank you for your gifts.
We promise you
to be dutiful at home,
as we have been at school.
Help us to be good,
clever and obedient children.
Providence of God,
watch over us.
