Punjab Lullaby Lyrics. An original lullaby inspired by Punjab, India’s fertile wheat-growing region, home to the Punjabi language and the rhythms of bhangra music. Every April, Punjab celebrates Baisakhi, a harvest festival marked by bhangra dancing in the fields, and the region’s fertile land has earned it the nickname “the breadbasket of India.” Here you will find the lyrics, meaning, and chords.
