IN THE CITY OF PEARLS

In the early morning; 

I saw her

fairy face in golden dew 

Such beauteous in my life 

I saw but only few---

While I gave my hand in her tender hand 

I knew I shall be never again to hyderabad---

Love is as like the wanning Moon 

With passage of time changing the mood---

 

Through my past prime; 

I do remember.

In the early morning, 

I saw her fairy face in golden dew--

If wheel of fortune will turn again

And golden youth holding us will remain--

One day we shall meet;

In the city of pearls again. 

In the early morning

I saw her fairy face

In golden dew--
