Famous Patriotic Songs And Sayings

There is always a consciousness about India in the words of our Sants - mostly referring to Bharat as puNya bhUmi.

See one sample from Kavitavali of Sant Sri Tulsidas:

भलि भारतभूमि, भलें कुल जन्मु, समाजु सरीरु भलो लहि कै।
करषा तजि कै परुषा बरषा हिम, मारुत, घाम सदा सहि कै।।
जो भजै भगवानु सयान सोई, 'तुलसी' हठ चातकु ज्यों गहि कै।
नतु और सबै विषबीज बए, हर हाटक कामदुहा नहि कै।।

First fortune of all, born in the land of Bharat, then too in a good family, even then with an able body. With such ample fortune, only those are clever says Tulsi, who leaving aside all sternness, praise Bhagwan, even at the cost of bearing the harsh weathers. Otherwise, he has only seen people ploughing with Kamdhenu pushed on a yoke, just the farm of poison-seeds.
