Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Bumbai Purani Kalkatta Purana
Bombay, ancient, Calcutta of old,
Bombay, ancient, Calcutta of old,
As my grandmother was, so my grandfather bold,
As my grandmother was, so my grandfather bold,
Bombay, ancient, Calcutta of old.
Oh, a playful fairy at Chowpatty's shore,
Fills life's cup with Laila's blossoming lore, Laila's lore.
A playful fairy at Chowpatty's shore,
Fills life's cup with Laila's blossoming lore, Laila's lore.
Upon her face, youth's offering poured,
On heart's drums, a song does soar and pour.
As my grandmother was, so my grandfather bold,
Bombay, ancient, Calcutta of old,
Bombay, ancient, Calcutta of old,
As my grandmother was, so my grandfather bold,
As my grandmother was, so my grandfather bold,
Bombay, ancient, Calcutta of old.
On pale streets, a gathering of souls,
In throngs, a million stories unrolls, stories unrolls.
On pale streets, a gathering of souls,
In throngs, a million stories unrolls, stories unrolls.
The world belongs to who the world controls,
Delhi, Banaras, all in our roles.
As my grandmother was, so my grandfather bold,
Bombay, ancient, Calcutta of old,
Bombay, ancient, Calcutta of old,
As my grandmother was, so my grandfather bold,
As my grandmother was, so my grandfather bold,
Bombay, ancient, Calcutta of old.
Oh, hearts, in this world, trade with care,
Do not be deceived, towards the goal you fare,
towards the goal you fare.
Hearts, in this world, trade with care,
Do not be deceived, towards the goal you fare,
towards the goal you fare.
The enemy wanders, in disguise to ensnare,
From the eyes of the crowd, evade and beware.
As my grandmother was, so my grandfather bold,
Bombay, ancient, Calcutta of old,
Bombay, ancient, Calcutta of old,
As my grandmother was, so my grandfather bold,
As my grandmother was, so my grandfather bold,
As my grandmother was, so my grandfather bold,
As my grandmother was, so my grandfather bold.
