Amchi Mumbai

A city…

Where everything is possible, especially the impossible
Where lovers first love and then marry, Where there is place for every Tom, Dick and Harry
Where telephone bills make a person ill, Where a person cannot sleep without a pill

Where carbon-dioxide is more than oxygen, Where the road is considered to be a dustbin
Where college canteens are full and classes empty, Where Adam teasing is also making an entry
Where a cycle reaches faster than a car, Where everyone thinks himself to be a star

Where sky scrapers overlook the slum, Where houses collapse as the monsoon comes
Where people first act and then think, Where there is more water in the pen than ink
Where the roads see-saw in monsoon, Where the beggars become rich soon

Where the roads are leveled when the minister arrives
Where college admission means hard cash, Where cement is frequently mixed with ash
This is Mumbai my dear, But don't fear, just cheer and come to Mumbai every year!
