ye bambai nagariya
main dhundhu dagariya
dil se bolu, dil se bolu
jaan se bolu, main hu mumbaiya
ye mumbai nagariya
main dhundhu dagariya
ye mumbai nagariya
main dhundhu dagariya
charon taraf kuch na aaye mujhko najariya
dil se bolu, dil se bolu
jaan se bolu, main hu mumbaiya
ye mumbai nagariya
main dhundhu dagariya

boriveli, andheri, lower parel
note, sikkey, rupiyo ka hai yaha khel
jawani ke mele yaha hote aise
jise chahe, jaha chahe mil jaaye khel
dil se bolu, dil se bolu
jaan se bolu, main hu mumbaiya
ye mumbai nagariya
main dhundhu dagariya

jidhar dekhu najar aaye log pareshan
aata, roti, dal, chawal ka hai imtihaan
platform logo ke bane hai makaan
bhukh, pyaas, daud, dhup iske nishan
dil se bolu, dil se bolu
jaan se bolu, main hu mumbaiya
ye mumbai nagariya
main dhundhu dagariya

jise puchho kahe wo to main hu insaan
tu hai insaan to, hu main bhi hairaan
kaam yaha dunga hai daam anjaan
hu main kahin aur nahi ye hai hindustan
dil se bolu, dil se bolu
jaan se bolu, main hu mumbaiya
ye mumbai nagariya
main dhundhu dagariya
ye mumbai nagariya
main dhundhu dagariya
charon taraf kuch na aaye mujhko najariya
dil se bolu, dil se bolu
jaan se bolu, main hu mumbaiya
ye mumbai nagariya
main dhundhu dagariya

This city of dreams, Mumbai,
I search for my path, a way.
From my heart I speak, I speak from my soul,
With all my being, I am Mumbaikar.
This city of dreams, Mumbai,
I search for my path, a way.
This city of dreams, Mumbai,
I search for my path, a way.
All around, nothing meets my eye,
From my heart I speak, I speak from my soul,
With all my being, I am Mumbaikar.
This city of dreams, Mumbai,
I search for my path, a way.

Borivali, Andheri, Lower Parel,
Notes, coins, rupees, the game they sell.
Youth's fairgrounds, a vibrant swirl,
Where any desire, the games unfurl.
From my heart I speak, I speak from my soul,
With all my being, I am Mumbaikar.
This city of dreams, Mumbai,
I search for my path, a way.

Where I look, a sea of cares,
Flour, bread, lentils, a life that bears.
Platforms, homes for weary stares,
Hunger, thirst, the sun that flares.
From my heart I speak, I speak from my soul,
With all my being, I am Mumbaikar.
This city of dreams, Mumbai,
I search for my path, a way.

Ask any soul, "I am human," they claim,
"If you are human, I question the same."
Work is doubled, prices unnamed,
I’m nowhere else, this is Hindustan's frame.
From my heart I speak, I speak from my soul,
With all my being, I am Mumbaikar.
This city of dreams, Mumbai,
I search for my path, a way.
This city of dreams, Mumbai,
I search for my path, a way.
All around, nothing meets my eye,
From my heart I speak, I speak from my soul,
With all my being, I am Mumbaikar.
This city of dreams, Mumbai,
I search for my path, a way.
