I am almost the same age as my city,Together we grew tall over the years,It raised me as a son in its bosom,And I loved it like the light of my eyes.

Today we have both changed so much,Its body is almost dilapidated,While I have tried my best to preserveThe beautiful name it has held through the years.

Now I do not know the people by name,Few childhood friends remain,They are scattered across other lands,Perhaps far away beyond seas and oceans.

I endlessly love the city where I grew up,Everything it carries here has its worth.I like it when I see people leaning toward knowledge,It pierces my heart when you say you are falcons.
