[Intro – Soft Shehnai + Bansuri + Manjira, distant city ambience] Nadi ke is paar… nadi ke us paar… Subah se dil maange… fafda ne jalebi yaar! Khakhra, dhokla, garam-garam farsan, Aa chhe Ahmedabad… dil thi mehmaan! [Verse 1 – Light Garba Groove] Old City na ghughra ka jawab nai, Pol ki galiyon mein koi hisaab nai, Chandra Vilas ka farsan… wah wah! Ek bite lo toh bolo… “Majaa aa gaya!” Auto wale ki driving… F1 ko sharmaaye, Signal pe bhi bhai apna rasta banaaye, Chakke chhudata, hawa se baatein karta, Ahmedabad ka andaaz… sabse alag lagta! [Pre-Chorus – Rising Dhol] Lucky ki cutting chai, maska maar ke, Irani chai… dil le jaaye pyaar se, Ek cup mein dosti, do cup mein baat, Ahmedabad ki chai… chale saari raat! [Chorus – Powerful Garba / Dandiya] Aa re… aa re… Ahmedabad! Dil se jeeta… Ahmedabad! Nadi ke is paar, nadi ke us paar, Rangilo sheher… apna Ahmedabad! Dhol baje… taali pade, Dandiya ghoome… raat saje, Garba ni raat, ne dher saari baat, Jeevan jeena ho toh… Ahmedabad! [Verse 2 – Bigger Arrangement] Riverfront ki hawa kahe kahani, Ellisbridge ki yaadein purani, Gandhi Bridge, Nehru Bridge, Jodta dilon ko… sheher ke har kinare! Subah ki daud aur shaam ki roshni, Bazaar ki bheed mein apni si dosti, Din ho ya raat, yahan rukta nahi, Ahmedabad ki zindagi… kabhi thakti nahi! [Bridge – Music Drops, Emotional Folk Vocal] Adalaj ki Vav… itihas ki nishani, Pattharon mein basi… sadiyon ki kahani, Pol ki deewaron se lekar Riverfront tak, Har mod pe mile… apnapan be-hisaab! [Final Chorus – Full Garba Orchestra] Aa re… aa re… Ahmedabad! Mara dil nu… Ahmedabad! Fafda, jalebi, chai aur pyaar, Sabse pyara… apna Ahmedabad! Dhol baje zor se, Taali pade shor se, Garba rame saari raat, Haste-haste beet jaaye… har ek baat! [Outro – Crowd Chant] Ahmedabad… Ahmedabad! Dilwalo ka Ahmedabad! Koi pata pooche… ghar tak chhod aaye, Koi mushkil mein ho… haath badhaye! Aa chhe apnu sheher… Aa chhe apnu ghar… Aa chhe… Ahmedabad!
