ORIGINAL CALCUTTA

Called Calcutta or Kolkata they, the city of joy

But sadly there is poverty immense; sad, you oh boy!

Poverty that brings tears of sadness not joy;

People here are treated not like humans; mere toys

Very few lucky are to be, properly employed;

Many miscreants there are who just plot n ploy.

I hope people find their right n honest envoy.

So that gets Calcutta its original tittle, "the City of Joy".
