One night in
Karachi
Just on the northern shores of the Arabian sea
A place that she can be she
One night in Karachi
The roaring traffic boom
She sees flowers that bloom
One night in Karachi
The city's alive
The crows crowd the sky
One night, yes in Karachi
Everyone's busy
So is she...
One night somewhere in Karachi
The smell of jasmine looms
She enters his room
One night in Karachi
Out of his window on the fourth floor she looks
To stay away from the crooks
One night in Karachi
She waits,
She waits...
One night in Karachi
At last comes he
She is free
One night in Karachi
Love finds her
She's with her lover
One night in Karachi
It's now her home and she's she.
Karachi
Just on the northern shores of the Arabian sea
A place that she can be she
One night in Karachi
The roaring traffic boom
She sees flowers that bloom
One night in Karachi
The city's alive
The crows crowd the sky
One night, yes in Karachi
Everyone's busy
So is she...
One night somewhere in Karachi
The smell of jasmine looms
She enters his room
One night in Karachi
Out of his window on the fourth floor she looks
To stay away from the crooks
One night in Karachi
She waits,
She waits...
One night in Karachi
At last comes he
She is free
One night in Karachi
Love finds her
She's with her lover
One night in Karachi
It's now her home and she's she.

Wow! After reading this poem of yours I have decided to include Karachi as my 'must visit' destinations for next year. Karachi sounds like a romantic city...the smell of jasmine flowers? Despite all the trouble we have heard in the news about what happened in Karachi recently, I am convinced that this city has so much to offer. The people want peace just like all of us. Good poem.
Neneps! "One Night In Karachi" is so interesting to read. I am from Shikarpur,Pakistan. I have yet to go to Karachi but I have decided to go and visit my cousin there. I am going to tell her about your poem and ask her to observe the night life in Karachi! LOL
Good job.
