My City

Mumbai, The Land of dreams,

She never lost her gleam.

Mumbai, she is known for her people, their courage and spirit.

Queen of India, She had jewels on her crown,

No one could make her bow down.

A City, She never slept, 

Even in pain, She never wept.

Now, why does she sleep during the day  ??

And, Why does she weep everyday ???

Why do her people now have more prying eyes than helping hands ??

What has happened to her ? Please make me Understand.

Where is My City ? Has she died?

For I miss her and my soul has cried.

What has changed you Dear Mumbai?  where have you gone?

Why is your kindness nowhere to be found ??

Tell me now, I have been looking for answers all around !!
