New Delhi |
New Delhi at 3 A.M. |
Just arrived by KLM |
Left the airport in the heat |
In the bus, strange people meet |
Driving through the starless night |
Passing very unusual sights |
Left the bus at five to five |
Caught a taxi, started to drive |
He thought I was a millionaire |
And accordingly put up the fair |
Dawn was breaking in the East |
Causing this hot night to cease |
Mosquito buzzing in my ears |
Grating sound of clashing gears |
Burning rubber through the air |
Taxi driver began to swear |
The heat was burning |
My head was turning |
It was then the car broke down |
Just on the outskirts of town |
A camel from Derangdera |
Silently passed by our car |
A vulture circled high above in the air |
I had to shade my eyes to to cover the glare |
Sweating in the plastic seats |
Hard to breath in the increasing heat? |
Lying back my mind started |
To drift into a in easy sleep |
I dreamt I was in New Delhi |
Dying slowly of La Grippe |
