All is God

Music is the best thing

Which has happened to me

For someone it may be dance

For you it may be art

But Life is the best thing which

Happened to all of us.

 

To me music itself is god

The sound of the guitar

The melody of the flute

The beat of the tabla

The reverberations of the santoor

The intoxication of the tanpura

All is God

 

The chirping of the birds

The gush of the ocean

The hush of the wind

All is God

 

                The noise of playing children

                The shouting of the wife

                The irritation of the people

                The “putt putt” happening in the mind

All is God

 

The traffic sound 

The blowing horns of the cars

The noise of the buses

The mad rush in the market place

All is God

 

Indeed- Life is the best thing which

           Has happened to all of us.
