India is famous for its food and spices,

But for some years it is facing some big crisis.

Many people's thinking here is still orthodox,

And politicians here only know to do high talks.

The things for which our country today is known are only poverty and corruption,

Not for all around the country free and millions of education.

The political parties here just want in the parliament a seat,

And they never see that many people in the country have nothing at all to eat.

We have to today develop in many spheres,

And have to make sure the people herd for this country really cares.

My country is the one who has a great history,

But why everything is so expensive is a major mystery.

Our country has seen many great personalities,

Those were the only people who showed us the world's realities.

I also respect my country's ethical cultures and traditions,

These are the secrets to improving our country's conditions.

India's best place is it's people unity,

Can throw out any damaging material we all have such high immunity.

For the fact that I am an Indian, I am really proud,

And this thing in front of everyone I can say out clear and loud.

The city of joy from where I belong

Is A Land of many faces

Of many creeds, multiple colors

Many religions and various races


The slow pace of life here

Makes everyone stay at ease

Everyone enjoys afternoon siestas

All worries seem to cease


Down the roads the continuous tinkles

Of trams and many a hand-pulled rickshaw

Seem like harmony to the ears

Like a symphony without any flaw


Hot tea in earthen clay pots

Along with masala puffed rice

ou get them at every street you g

oAnd they taste really nice


Football crazy are the people here

They follow the sport like a religion

A footballer resides in every Kolkatta

yet he may belong to any other region


Monsoons arrive in thick black clouds

The smell of wet soil rises in the air

A season to set sail the paper boats

A Relief from the summer sun's glare


Autumn sows the seeds of Durga puja

The grandest celebration of all

The sound of the drums resound in the air

People dance and have a ball


The waters of the Ganges mark the end

Of the puja celebrations

The banks of the river mainly the ghats

Become centers of congregations


The food here is the main attraction

With all sorts of fishes galore

Mishti Doi and Roshogolla

Will make you pleading for more


A city which welcomes every single one

All people big and small

So many faces and numerous festivals

With Joy- the one emotion in all.
