Swami Vivekananda Comes to American Public Television in May 2024 — Indiaspora
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9_UFJFV-Tw
Transcription (part) from 1 minute 54 seconds
I thank you in the name of the most ancient order of monks in the world.
I thank you in the name of the mother of all religions.
I am proud to belong to a religion which has taught the world both tolerance and universal acceptance.
We believe not only in universal toleration, but we accept all religions as true.
They got a surprise.
They did not count on him stealing the show.
I always call him the Jackie Robinson of the penetration of Indian spirituality into America.
And he comes in his orange turban and his scarlet suit and he says, we are not servile.
We have a religion that is equal if not better to yours because we are tolerant.
We are open-minded. We are diverse. Not just East and the West.
The past and the future met at that point.
A modern world was born. Contd….

Transformation to another Language
And Optional translation to a second language
The translation must be properly punctuated in the target language and of course be accurate.
Example Above portion of Vivekananda address translated to Hindi
मैं आपको दुनिया में भिक्षुओं के सबसे प्राचीन आदेश के नाम पर धन्यवाद देता हूं।
मैं आपको सभी धर्मों की मां के नाम पर धन्यवाद देता हूं।
मुझे गर्व है कि मैं एक ऐसे धर्म से हूं, जिसने दुनिया को सहिष्णुता और सार्वभौमिक स्वीकृति दोनों सिखाया है।
हम न केवल सार्वभौमिक सहिष्णुता में विश्वास करते हैं, बल्कि हम सभी धर्मों को सच के रूप में स्वीकार करते हैं।
उन्हें एक आश्चर्य हुआ।
उन्होंने शो चुराने पर भरोसा नहीं किया।
मैं हमेशा उन्हें अमेरिका में भारतीय आध्यात्मिकता के प्रवेश का जैकी रॉबिन्सन कहता हूं।
और वह अपनी नारंगी पगड़ी और अपने लाल रंग के सूट में आता है और वह कहता है, हम गुलाम नहीं हैं।
हमारा एक धर्म है जो आपके धर्म से बेहतर नहीं तो बराबर है क्योंकि हम सहिष्णु हैं।
हम खुले विचारों वाले हैं। हम विविध हैं। पूरब और पश्चिम ही नहीं।
अतीत और भविष्य उस बिंदु पर मिले।
एक आधुनिक दुनिया का जन्म हुआ।

Hindi Version of Vivekananda Text Transliterated to Phonetic English
main aapko duniya mein bhikshuon ke sabse prachin adesh ke naam par dhanyavad deta hoon
main aapko sabhi dharmon ki maan ke naam par dhanyavad deta hoon
mujhe garv hai ki main ek aise dharm se hoon, jisne duniya ko sahishnuta aur sarvabhaumik swikriti donon sikhaya hai
hum na keval sarvabhaumik sahishnuta mein vishwas karte hain, balki hum sabhi dharmon ko sach ke roop mein sweekar karte hain
unhen ek aashcharya hua
unhonne show churane par bharosa nahin kiyaa
main hamesha unhen america mein bhartiya adhyatmikata ke pravesh ka jackie robinson kehta hoon
aur vah apani narangi pagadi aur apne laal rang ke suit mein aata hai aur vah kahata hai, hum gulam nahi hain
hamara ek dharm hai jo aapke dharm se behtar nahi to barabar hai kyonki hum sahishnu hain
hum khule vicharon vale hain hum vividh hain purab aur paschim hi nahin
atit aur bhavishya us bindu par mile
ek aadhunik duniya ka janm huaa

बसिया प्रभातकाले सेतारार दुर्गभाले
शिवाजी हेरिला एक दिन--
रामदास गुरु तांर भिक्षा मागि द्वार द्वार
फिरिछेन जेन अन्नहीन।
भाविला, ए की ए कांड! गुरूजीर भिक्षाभांड--
घरे जांर नाइ दैन्यलेश!
सब जांर हस्तगत, राज्येश्वर पदानत,
तांरो नाइ बसनार शेष!
ए केवल दिने रात्रे जल ढेले फुटा पात्रे
ब्रिथा चेष्टा तृष्णा मिटाबारे।
कहिला, "देखिते हबे कतोखानि दिले तबे
भिक्षाझुलि भरे एकेबारे।"

লেখন
স্বপ্ন আমার জোনাকি, দীপ্ত স্নানের মনিকা, স্তব্ধ আঁধার নিশীথে উড়িছে আলোর কনিকা ।।
My fancies are fireflies speaking of lining light- twinkling in the dark.
আমার লিখন ফুটে পথধারে ক্ষনিক কালেক ফুলে, চলিতে চলিতে দেখে যারা তারে চলিতে চলিতে ভুলে।।
The same voice murmurs in these desultory lines which is bora in wayside pansies letting hasty glances pass by.
প্রজাপতি মেতো বরষ না গণে, নিমেষ গনিয়া বাঁচে, সময় তাহার যথেষ্ট তাই আছে ৷৷
The butterfly does not count gears but moments and therefore has enough time.
Notice as English handwriting not same as print text, errors seem more in English handwriting OCR
