Mirza Ghalib did rightly extol
The world is the body, Delhi its soul
Welcome to Delhi-City of your dreams
Elegant, diverse, cultured and supreme
The pride of the people
The capital of the nation
A kaleidoscope of colours
Its tourist’s favourite destination
Qawalis, bhajans, gurbanis and prayers
Diwali, Id, Baisakhi and more
The hub for cultural bonanzas
There are festivals and celebrations galore
Extraordinary is the glamour
Of Delhi’s history
Seven different capitals
Such is its story
Lal Kot, Siri Fort, Tughlakabad
Jahanpanah, Firoz Shah Kotla, Deenpanah
Shahjahanabad and finally New Delhi
This is the tale of the seven cities
Humanyun’s Tomb and Qutab Minar
Red Fort and LotusTemple
India Gate to top it all
Mosques, forts and monuments ample
The Parliament House, the Rashtrapathi Bhavan
Buildings that define our administration
The Rajpath road to lead us there
And Rajghat for the father of the nation
Tihar is in Delhi
It’s India’s best jail
And police officers in uniform
Fighting crimes without fail
Chandni Chowk is the foodie’s delight
Famous for Paranthewali Gali
Tasty kababs, lip smacking biryani
And street side favourite Bhelpuri
Chaat corner offers a wide range
Dhokle, gol guppe and pav bhaji
Delhi is home to all cuisines
Mughlai, South Indian and Punjabi
Delhi is the shopper’s paradise
With Saket’s famous shopping malls
CP for its architectural design
Mehruali with Mughal embroidery on the walls
Commonwealth Games in our city
Trade Fair at Pragati Maidan
Rich heritage, glorious lifestyle
Yehi hai Delhi meri jaan!
