you can count and
learn the beats,
in 2,4 or 8
in counts.

It all depends
how the song is
sung.

Eight are the
Directions
East, West,
North and south.
And their brothers
North East,
North West,
South East and
South west.

We have North East
Monsoon,
It takes away the
roofs and
creates havoc
sometimes
with torrential
rains and floods.

We have south west monsoon,
Taking away the huts,
and properties.
We still depend upon
both,
We know only how they
behave,
But we have to save
and store water
and link all the rivers
The perennial ones
to the dry ones.

Those who are born
on 8th,17th and 26th
of any month
Are advised to
make a design
of a wheel
with 8 divisions.
They will be
protected
and saved from
All directions.

Normally their
good days will
start they say,
after the age of
thirty.
