Gujarat Lullaby Lyrics. An original lullaby inspired by Gujarat, India’s western state known for the mirrored embroidery of Kutch and the vast white salt desert of the Rann. Every winter, the salt desert hosts the Rann Utsav, a festival of moonlit camping, folk music and dance, and Gujarat is also considered the birthplace of garba, a dance performed in wide spinning circles during the autumn festival of Navratri. Here you will find the lyrics, meaning, and chords.
