TO KOLKATA,MY LOVE!!!

i am coming back,
back to town,
the day changes into the night,
the whole city is yawning,
the city is dozing off...

they shut the door,
and with that the sorrows,
the fights are all gone,
only to come back the next morning,

the city is running,
my tired city is rising up,
to a new dawn,
with new hopes

the man rises from the ganga,
washing away all his sins,
a new day for him,
brings new hope.

the newly wed with fresh vermillion,
has forgotten all her tears,
she has started smiling..
the new day has brought joy to her!!

some one is staying back,
her man is calling her back,
all they want is to sit
and enjoy the romance in the benches of Victoria,

the man at the bazar,
is busy bargaining with the fish seller,
at the same time he's counting his money,
his head,busy on the work at office.

walking all alone,
with jhal muri in her hand,
she walks all alone,
singing her way towards park street,

i will smile in this city,
fall in love in this city,
i will live in this city,
live for the rest of my life here.

i will cry today
but there will be a smile tomorrow.
i will live for a day,
and i live to the fullest in calcutta!!!
