Was born a great man on a mission.
Humility supreme, no eye for bling,
Turned history around with just one thing.
Satyagraha, silent resistance,
Peaceful no to violent insistence.
They were scared of him, this giant so frail.
That why they hauled him off to jail.
They thought it would stop him.
But no, it did not.
They thought they could break him.
But no, they could not!
He scared them all without lifting a hand.
Didn’t give in to one, not one demand.
On a fast he went, leading the way,
Till they shivered to hold him for one more day.
A people united, together we stood.
Let the powers that were do whatever they could.
No ‘yes men’ here, we all said no.
Till they said, enough, we’d better pack up and go.
My brothers and sisters, you know why we are free.
So, get it together for the original G.
Jai Mahatma! Jai Mahatma!
Mahatma Gandhi, the original G
Jai Mahatma! Jai Mahatma!
Angel of freedom, he set us free!
Jai Mahatma! Jai Mahatma!
He said we’re one, you and me
Jai Mahatma! Jai Mahatma!
Father of India, we salute thee.
Now, I’m proud of India. Proud of where I’m from.
But sometimes I wonder, what have we become?
Poverty and pain, the rich don’t care.
Corruption bred leaders stinks up the air.
If the Mahatma were around, what would he say?
If he saw the creatures we’ve become today.
Prejudice and fear are tearing us apart.
Time to look deep and find our heart.
Oh Mahatma! I ask of thee!
Pray the Lord gives your people eyes to see.
One people, one nation, that’d make him proud.
A billion smiles, for everyone in this crowd.
Jai Mahatma! Jai Mahatma!
Mahatma Gandhi, the original G.
Jai Mahatma! Jai Mahatma!
Angel of freedom, he set us free!
Jai Mahatma! Jai Mahatma!
He said we’re one, you and me!
Jai Mahatma! Jai Mahatma!
Father of India, we salute thee.
Jai Mahatma! Jai Mahatma!
Mahatma Gandhi, the original G.
Jai Mahatma! Jai Mahatma!
Angel of freedom, he set us free!
Jai Mahatma! Jai Mahatma!
He said we’re one, you and me!
Jai Mahatma! Jai Mahatma!
Father of India, we salute thee.
