Tejasvini, kyun na rahin, (why did you not stay full of glory) tum nishchay, chintan nahin, (you

are decided, no worries) prano mey prerna deti na kyun? (why don't you give inspiration to life) Tum madhyavami, kurushetra grami, gangey janani, navbharat mey, bhismarupi sutsamrajey, janati nahi ho kyun?. (you are flowing through the middle, seen the villages of Kurushetra (where Mahabharat took place), mother of Bhishm (great uncle of Pandavs & Kauravs), in this new India why don't you give birth to sons like Bhishm again?)

The first line could possibly mean that Ganga (Meaning India Here) in the past was full of glory, prosperity and beauty. -----Talk about pollution by humans in ganga or how in the past it were outside invaders and later the people in Indi itself(politician) who caused the loss of glory to India. The second and third line tell that ganga is decided for herself but this same decisiveness does not exist among the people.. People are not clear in their path Ganga flows thru the middle of Kurushetra (where Mahabharat took place). One of the pivotal chrs of Mahabaratha was Bhishma who was Gangas son. Poet asks y Ganga hasnt given birth to more Bhishmas
