From Delhi to Goa

Gautam Guruda

Walked in the sand

With bucket and spade

Held tight in his hand

 

All of a sudden

He jumped in the air;

That made all the people

Turn around and stare.

 

He giggled and laughed

He squiggled his toes

He opened his mouth

He blew his nose

 

Gautam Guruda

Fell flat in the sand

His bucket and spade

Struck up a band!

 

All the people around

They gave him a hand

But nobody knew

As the commotion arose

That a tiny crab

Was tickling his toes!

 

Gautam Guruda

Was from Delhi you see

So he was new to The Goan sand and seas.

Music is relative and changes from person to person. As famously said; while it may be noise to someone, it may be music to another. This is why music is now known to us in different styles.
