A song in support of the tsunami victims, by the students of the H.B. Kapadia Schools, Ahmedabad:

Sath hain sath hain, hum sab tumhare sath hain
Sath the, sath hain, sath rahenge hum sada
Tan se man se dhan se, tan man dhan jeevan se*.

If we knew that it would be
Such a horrible calamity
We would have warned the people
And saved lives.

If we knew that it would be
Such a devastating moment to see
We would have used a magic wand
And saved lives

If we knew that it would be
Such a terrible tsunami
We would have made a huge wharf and
Saved many lives.

Sath hain sath hain, hum sab tumhare sath hain
Sath the, sath hain, sath rahenge hum sada
Tan se man se dhan se, tan man dhan jeevan se.

The tsunami has taken many lives
And spread terror for miles and miles
We ought to help those lives
Much as we can.

Panic not, fear not
Cause we are with you always
We’ll give you moral support
To move along.

Sath hain sath hain, hum sab tumhare sath hain
Sath the, sath hain, sath rahenge hum sada
Tan se man se dhan se, tan man dhan jeevan se.
