ye hai bambai pyare, iske rang hai nyare
din me dikhlaye tare, ye hai bambai pyare
ye hai bambai pyare, iske rang hai nyare
din me dikhlaye tare, ye hai bambai pyare

ek traf buildinge unchi unchi
ek traf jhopadi me base rash
sach hai bhai
ek traf to hai dolat ki masti
ek traf gu gurabat ka dera
jiye aas ke mare ye hai bambai pyare
din me dikhlaye tare, ye hai bambai pyare

anda bhata hai aalu ptata
aate jate ko karte hai tata
slam jai ram ji ki
beru amrud kamra hai kholi
hai yaha ki ek ajab boli
kaise kaise nzare, ye hai bambai pyare
din me dikhlaye tare, ye hai bambai pyare

mil to jata hai sab kuch yaha par
ek milta nahi hai thikana
arey apun bhi to futpat par hai bhai
mil gaya ek ghar to use phir
mil gaya zindagi ka bhana
din masti me gujar ye hai bumbai pyare
din me dikhlaye tare, ye hai bambai pyare
ye hai bambai pyare, iske rang hai nyare
din me dikhlaye tare, ye hai bambai pyare
ye hai bambai pyare, ye hai bambai pyare
ye hai bambai pyare, ye hai bambai pyare

This is Mumbai, dear, its hues are a marvel,
Shows you stars by day, this is Mumbai, dear.
This is Mumbai, dear, its hues are a marvel,
Shows you stars by day, this is Mumbai, dear.

On one side, the towers climb, so high,
On the other, in shacks, the essence lies.
It's true, brother.
On one side, the revelry of wealth,
On the other, poverty's dwelling place.
Hearts yearn with hope, this is Mumbai, dear,
Shows you stars by day, this is Mumbai, dear.

Eggs flow, potatoes and aloo,
Bid farewell to those who come and go.
Salaam, Jai Ram Ji Ki!
Beru, guava, a room, a kholi,
A peculiar dialect holds its own.
What wondrous sights, this is Mumbai, dear,
Shows you stars by day, this is Mumbai, dear.

You find everything here, or so it seems,
But a place to truly belong, you'll rarely see.
Hey, even I am on the footpath, brother!
If you find a home, then it becomes,
A reason to live, a life's creed.
Spend your days in joy, this is Mumbai, dear,
Shows you stars by day, this is Mumbai, dear.
This is Mumbai, dear, its hues are a marvel,
Shows you stars by day, this is Mumbai, dear.
This is Mumbai, dear, this is Mumbai, dear.
This is Mumbai, dear, this is Mumbai, dear.
