SONG

This is the song..which brings in a nostalgic feeling.. about my college days..and it has a big effect on my life.. hope you will enjoy it

 
We shall overcome
We shall overcome
We shall overcome some day
 
Oh, deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome some day
.
We’ll walk hand in hand
We’ll walk hand in hand
We’ll walk hand in hand some day
.
We shall all be free
We shall all be free
We shall all be free some day
 
We are not afraid
We are not afraid
We are not afraid some day
 
We are not alone
We are not alone
We are not alone some day
 
The whole wide world around
The whole wide world around
The whole wide world around some day
 
We shall overcome
We shall overcome
We shall overcome some day
 
 
In hindi
 
 hum honge kamyab, hum honge kamyab,
hum honge kamyab, ek din
Oh, man mein hai visvas, pura hai visvas
hum honge kamyab, ek din

hum chalenge sath sath, dale hathon mein hath
hum chalenge sath sath, ek din
Oh, man mein hai visvas, pura hai visvas
hum chalenge sath sath, ek din

nahin dar kisika aaj, nahin-hai bhay kisika aaj
nahin dar kisika aaj, e din
Oh, man mein hai visvas, pura hai visvas
nahin dar kisika aaj, e din

hogi shanti charon or, hogi shanti charon or,
hogi shanti charon or, ek din
Oh, man mein hai visvas, pura hai visvas
hogi shanti charon or, ek din

Lyrics derived from Charles Tindley’s gospel song “I’ll Overcome Some Day” (1900), and opening and closing melody from the 19th-century spiritual “No More Auction Block for Me” (a song that dates to before the Civil War). According to Professor Donnell King of Pellissippi State Technical Community College (in Knoxville, Tenn.), “We Shall Overcome” was adapted from these gospel songs by “Guy Carawan, Candy Carawan, and a couple of other people associated with the Highlander Research and Education Center, currently located near Knoxville, Tennessee. I have in my possession copies of the lyrics that include a brief history of the song, and a notation that royalties from the song go to support the Highlander Center.”
