It has been more than 24 years now

I still miss you, my dear city.

There was a time in the early 1990s when I first became acquainted with you

In the beautiful hills of India you were there.

As we started living there gradually I started liking you

Oh, the splendid greenery all around.

The crisp evening air and the lovely mountains nearby

Mussoorie was a lovely sight from you.

Spending four glorious years there

I shall always remember.

Whether it be the sunlight at noon or whether it be the breeze at night

There were always times and things that I relished in your lovely city.

Thank you for so much; thank you for the memories

Dear Dehradun, I will always remain indebted.
