Naa hutti baali beleda ooriduThis is the city where I was born and raised,

Naa hottepaadigaagi banda ooriduI arrived here just to earn my daily bread,
Naa nanna naane hudukibanda ooridubut this is where I truly found myself.
Main zindagi banane aaya hoon yahanI’ve come here to build a life of my own,
Hey, I always knew I belong hereHey, I always knew I belonged right here.
