Re: [nukkad] Me Mumbaikar



----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The happiness of life is made up of minute fractions--the little, 
soon-forgotten charities of a kiss or smile, a kind look or heartfelt 
compliment. -Samuel Taylor Coleridge, poet (1772-1834) 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

From: "Harshal Chhaya" 

 Javed Akhtar was chosen by Shiv Sena to write an anthem titled
 'Me Mumbaikar' that reflects and celebrates Mumbai's spirit.

( ... )

 Me Mumbaikar

 Mein hoon Marathi, mein Gujarati, Mein Tamil, Malayali
 Mein Avadhi, mein Magadhi hoon, Mein Punjabi, Bangali
 Hindustan hai desh mera aur Mumbai hai mera ghar
 Mee Mumbaikar, mein Mumbaikar

 Mein Hindu, mein Muslim hoon, mein Parsi, Sikh, Isaai
 Joh sab samjhein woh bhasha, Mujhe Mumbai ne sikhayee
 Sabko gale lagale Mumbai hai woh pyaar ka saagar
 Mee Mumbaikar, mein Mumbaikar

 Mumbai sapnon ki nagri hai phir bhi har pal jaage
 Jeevan ki har daud mein Mumbai nikle sabse aage
 Har mehnat ka phal milta hai Mumbai ki dharti par
 Mee Mumbaikar, mein Mumbaikar

 Mumbai mujhse pyaar kare, mein pyaar karoon Mumbai se
 Poore dil sachche man se ikraar karoon Mumbai se
 Sundar hai Mumbai, banana hai ise aur bhi sundar
 Mee Mumbaikar, mein Mumbaikar

====================================================

What is it, more or less, about...?  I guess it is something like: whatever
my roots, I am a Mumbaikar and I love Mumbai. What about the rest?


Best,

Anna.
