"Hum bulbulein hain iski..yeh gulsitaan hamarae" in the National song Saare Jahan se Accha..indicates that we are like small bubbles (bulbulein, indicating that we are a part of this vast country...and not Bulbuls(birds) as you mentioned

Renu ji !!
I Think your not getting their patriotims behind their comments...
The religion which doesnt have a value for ladies ... n treat them like slaves ... how can they imagine their country as a female (slave) and worship...
As one of the great poet... says national/patriotic song (Sare jahaan se atcha)they always try to enjoy the country (as a gulsitaan) by teating themselves as Bulbuls... thats's a different issue all together... where in Bul buls enjoy the gulsita and fly away , can never think of maitaining the sanity of their mother land. The community which is protesting singing Vandemataram doesnt have a concept of respecting a women ... then worshiping can never think of ...

Hari, Islam gives 33% property share to women, where it is must for women to get educated, where Heaven is under woman(mother's) feet. And renu, "YOU" are not giving us anything, we are taking our rights, if you are talking about national song, I'll let you know something about our constitution and Fundamental rights, if you don't believe in it, then alas, you are not Indian anymore :). Don't attack the religion man, be tolerant, after all Gandhiji, father of our nation, killed by "patriots" taught us to be tolerant :)
Ask Mr. Bukhari, does it offend his religion to respest your motherland. If YES then please throw him out in the international waters of the 'pacific ocean'
Ask those who are standing tall to protect us, this two words are great inspiration and motivation to us. these two letters have thrown out english bodies from India. Anybody who is not using these words first they are not indians second they should be thrown out of the country, which we have done earlier. Vande Mataram should be mandatory for all the Indians. Lets not make a joke out of this. what our Govt is doing about this, all this time we thought that Jan Gan Man and Vante Mataram is used in all the schools and colleges. This is sanskruit word and does not belongs to any cast to religion this belongs to India. Wake up Enough should be enough. Lets ask those who does'nt to use Jan Gan Man and Vande mataram to leave our country NOW NOW and NOW.
Vande Mataram itself like we r doing Vandan to our mother our motherland , and every Indians have to pray for we are proud of that we take birth at this land and those who dotn want to do it can leave this place and they can go to pray the land they want as Motherland
This means a salute,a tribute to our Country.Our Mother Land,from where we get every thing in life.While singing ,we only give a little against we get so much from our Matr Bhumi.Its a matter of feeling,where words become short to describe.Our life is the blessing of this Land,which has been always on the target of invaders,who think only to come & rob the world's most ancient richest country.Still Hindustan gave a place to them who wished to stay here, besides being any motive to come.So we should atleast praise this land,where we live our life

Bodhisattva,
We will always sing Sare Jahan se achha. HAs any Hindu ever objected to this ?? But Vande Mataram was unquestionable the most popular song of the freedom struggle and it worships the motherland- Bharatmata- in the same we have been worshipping all great ppl and things sinc time immemmorial, since even before the birth of Islam and Christianity. Thats the culture of India.
And as u urself say, its a patriotic song, not a Bhajan !! Why any objection then ?? Just to divide the nation once again, as those bigots did in 1947 ??
