This script requires cclive and ffmpeg.
You can alias it in your .zshrc:

alias dla="/path/to/download-audio.sh"

And then use it like that:

dla "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFY5fXAfvG4"

It will download the audio and save it as a .mp4 file named after the video title, right where you run the command.
