City of Lights
When I entered into the city of Light,
No betting odds among dawn and twilight,
The vitality is alive, well and bright,
Oh beloved Karachi, a marvelous sight,
Every affiliate for you is momentous,
The sun rises upon us as gorgeous,
Alpha to omega you’re vivacious,
And the symbol of superb glorious,
To walk on the shore of Hawks bay,
To touch her mud and clay,
And meanwhile to run or lay,
Won’t I forget all never and nay,
On the pier of sea view we dabble,
Hither, thither and wabble,
Conduct a race o’er and scramble,
Capriole there and babble,
Your alleys and ways may remain shine,
To the eternity, so I pine,
And desire for harmonious fine,
With countless blessing of divine,
May your liveliness long forever,
May you be the land of peace ever,
May Almighty protects your inhabitant from clever,
Scums of evil ,so they harm you never.
