Music - Poem
Seven bells from heaven chiming in rhyme
In sixteen colours of harmony climb
Immixed in patterns melodic sung spread
In divine frequencies nicely rendered
Music is indeed heavenly sublime
Note: seven bells- seven notes
sixteen colours- except Sa and pa the fixed notes
the other five notes have variants
Ri, Ga, Dha, Ni- three variants each
And Ma- two variants.These fourteen variants and the fixed notes
comprise sixteen swarasthanas in Indian Music
