ek ghat sab pani piye

jise kahti thi nani ho
ek bahut purani suno suno re kahani

A tale unfolds, ancient and deep,
Whispered by grandmothers, secrets to keep.
A story of old, listen close, let it begin,
A tale of the forest, where life’s threads spin.

In the gathering green, a day of renown,
A horse, a deer, an elephant came down.
A monkey, a bear, a cat sleek and sly,
And a jackal, sneaking, with a glint in his eye.
Creatures of all kinds, in the story's embrace,
A tale of old wisdom, time cannot erase.
A tale of old, listen close, let it unfurl.
They pondered a wish for the whole wide world.

"Let there be no violence, no death in sight,"
"No creature shall suffer, in the fading light."
"No eating of flesh, no blood to be spilled,"
"All shall drink water, their thirst to be stilled."
"One path for all, a harmonious way,"
"The forest united, come what may."
But who would convey this vision so grand?
A sacrifice needed, a soul in command.
A tale of old wisdom, whispered and spun.
A tale of old, listen close, let it be begun.

The cat, she declared, with a delicate meow,
"I am the King's cousin, I know how to bow."
"Why not let me carry this message of peace?"
"To the King of the jungle, and all will be ease."
"Oh, Cousin, so blessed!" they all did agree.
"Go forth and deliver, for all the world to see."
"Go tell the great lion, a festival's near,"
"The feast is prepared, banish all fear!"
"A feast for the King, the forest's delight,"
"He may devour, if he chooses tonight."
"How foolish, this notion, no one will be there,"
"He'll come for the feast, and none will prepare."
"No one will be ready." They warned in despair.
"You must understand, my dears, beware!"

"Let the King come forth, let him enter the fray,"
"Then we shall instruct, and show him the way."
"We will make him dance, the King will obey."
"Go, Cousin, go forth, without delay,"
A tale of old wisdom, in every heart spun.
A tale of old, listen close, let it be begun.

"I am your cousin, listen to my plea,"
"A festival awaits, for you and for me."
"The forest is joyous, like milk to the churn,"
"The King’s coming, come back and return!"
"Come forth, your feast to relish and taste,"
"The forest awaits, let no moment be waste."
"Forward, my King, let me follow your lead,"
"You go forward, I’ll follow, indeed."
"You ahead, I behind, you ahead, I behind."

"Oh, clever of the mind, how will I find the way?"
"Tell me your path, lead me astray."
"I'll show you the way, do not be afraid."
A tale of old wisdom, a truth to be laid.
A tale of old, listen close, let it be played.

"To eat, I must eat, where is the feast?"
The jackal then spoke, the beast,
"Why fear ye all, why fear the night?"
A charm to remember, hold it tight.
"Forget all worries, banish all dread,"
"If you are brave, you won't be dead."
"If you are brave, the death will flee,"
"To eat him, to eat her, who shall I see?"

"The King fears no one, none shall be hurt,"
"The lion, he rules, his power to assert."
"Do you not know the might that resides?"
"Within the people, unity presides."
"The power of the people, let all understand."
"Let sacrifice cease, let joy take command."
"Let us all dance, let us all sing,"
"Let the festival of peace take wing."
"Who shall dance, who shall sing,
Who will play the music, let the music ring."

The monkey will play, with the music's call,
The bear will dance, enchanting us all.
Come, my King, come and see.
The bear will show his dance, for you and me.
He will dance to show the King, his own display.
The bear, he dances, the monkey plays,
The King will dance, the whole forest sways.
The bear will dance and show his way.
