(Verse 1)
Mumbai's hustle starts to fade, the city sleeps in shades of gray
But in your heart, a new tune plays, for Tamil Nadu calls you away
From Marine Drive and Juhu Beach, a different shore you're gonna reach
Leave the vada pav for a while, for idli-dosa, with a smile
The Deccan Plateau stretches wide, with Western Ghats on either side
The Konkan railway, green and lush, a gentle, soothing, joyful hush.
(Chorus)
Oh, Tamil Nadu, here we come, from Mumbai's beat to temple drum
From the Arabian to the Bay, a journey to a brand new day
The land of jasmine, silks, and gold, a thousand stories to be told
From Mumbai's concrete, gray and grand, to Tamil Nadu, ancient land.
(Verse 2)
The train rolls on, the sun comes high, beneath a different, azure sky
Through Karnataka's fields of green, a vibrant, changing, stunning scene
You'll see the mountains, dark and old, with secrets that they keep and hold
Past sleepy towns and coconut trees, carried on a gentle breeze
The language shifts, a different sound, on new and sacred, hallowed ground
The air grows warmer, sweet and new, as your adventure sees you through.
(Chorus)
Oh, Tamil Nadu, here we come, from Mumbai's beat to temple drum
From the Arabian to the Bay, a journey to a brand new day
The land of jasmine, silks, and gold, a thousand stories to be told
From Mumbai's concrete, gray and grand, to Tamil Nadu, ancient land.
(Bridge)
You'll land in Chennai, hot and bright, beneath the South Indian light
Feel the history in the stone, in ancient temples, you're not alone
From Madurai's famous Meenakshi, to Rameshwaram by the sea
Pondicherry's charming streets, a different world, with different beats.
(Outro)
So pack your bags, and go explore, there's so much waiting at your door
From Mumbai's pace, a change is due, Tamil Nadu is waiting for you
Waiting for you.
