Janani janma bhoomischa swargadapi gareeyasi.

Does that say something in a different language, or are you just practicing your typing skills?

And a big ole "Womp-bomp-a-loom-op-a-womp-bam-boom!" to you too!

Shama Lama Ding Dong ;)

Ask in English. We'll see if we can answer.

It is in Sanskrit. "janma bhoomischa" (should be one word). "Janani" - mother, "janmabhoomi" - Birthland, "swargadapi" - more than Heaven, "gareeyasi" - dearer. Loosely translated - My birthland, my Mother (metaphor, birthland is my mother), is dearer to me than Heaven.

Some historical background:
When Lord Rama defeated Ravana in historical battle of Lanka, Lakshman, Lord Rama's brother asked him to settle in that beautiful city of Lanka which was supposedly made of bricks of Gold. This is the actual quote from Valmeeki Ramayan of Lord Rama's answer to Lakshmana's request.

अपि स्वर्णमयी लंका न मे लक्ष्मण रोचते ।
जननी जन्मभूमिश्च स्वर्गादपि गरीयसी ॥

Api swarnamayee lankaa na me Lakshmana rochate
Janaanee janmabhoomishcha swargaadapi gareeyasee

O Lakshmana, I don't like Lanka though made up of gold
(because) mother & motherland are greater than heaven.

I hope this helps.
Ask me if there are any doubts.
I will be more than glad to help.

I totally understand. I've lived in my own version of Lanka for nearly 40 years. Returning to my hometown and being with my mother are greater than heaven.

Who said to whom and when?
