Neither the speed of Mumbai nor the greed of Delhi,
Life runs a little lowly, a little slowly in Bengaluru.
Banquets of beef curries or bars & breweries,
There is nothing that’s too holy in Bengaluru.
Cute English, cuter Hindi, the cutest Kannada
You will find every endearing “boli” in Bengaluru.
Its traffic might steal away your sense of adventure,
Soon, you will find you’re more homely in Bengaluru.
Entire India comes to settle in this city of startups,
Give it few years, uthti hai sab ki doli in Bengaluru.
Be it Flipkart’s Bansals or Infy’s Murthys,
Even Mallya made his billions wholly in Bengaluru.
It was supposedly home to the one & only Dravid,
The IPL team now has Kohli in Bengaluru.
Kind weather, tall trees, don’t you now complain Harsh,
10 million of you & still you feel so lonely in Bengaluru.
