Activity 1.

Listen, recite and enjoy the poem:

Whenever I see,
Others taller than me,
I feel that I am small And I wish I were tall.
Whenever I see,
Someone overtakes me,
I wish my legs were longer
To carry me faster.
Whenever I hem,
ā€œOh, your friend is such a dear;ā€
I feel like asking ā€œWhy?ā€
And it makes me cry.
Then comes my mother,
Who says, ā€œDonā€™t bother,
I love you, my dear.ā€
The words Iā€™m happy to hear.

Your teacher will read the following story for you. Listen to your teacher and then read the story silently:

Song of songs

The great ruler of India, Akbar, had nine gems in his court. The nine gems were the greatest in their own fields. One of them was Tansen, a great musician. He played different types of musical notes for the king. He played raagas like Malkauns, Dipak, Kedar, Malhar, etc. Tansen made some innovation in the Malhar raag and created Miyamalhar raag.

GSEB Solutions Class 8 English Sem 1 Unit 2 LMBB Learn More, Be Brighter 21

One evening the king was in his court. He said to Tansen, ā€œUstadji, play something new on your tanpura and make us happy.ā€ Tansen agreed. He took his tanpura. He started raag Darbari. The court became calm and quiet. People forgot everything around them. After some time the king looked up, his eyes bright with praise. ā€œWonderful!ā€ he said.

GSEB Solutions Class 8 English Sem 1 Unit 2 LMBB: Learn More, Be Brighter

ā€œSuperb ! I listen to you everyday, but this was the best.ā€ Tansen bowed before the king.ā€œI think you have the most wonderful voice in the world!ā€ said the king.

ā€œWell, my lord, there is someone who sings better than I,ā€ said Tansen with a smile. ā€œReally ?ā€ cried the disbelieving king. ā€œThen I must have him sing in my court. Can you arrange ,it?ā€ asked the king.Tansen shook his head. ā€œIā€™m afraid he will not come to the court.ā€ ā€œWhat! Even if he hears that the king himself requests him?ā€ ā€œNo, not even then.ā€ Akbar was very eager to meet him.

ā€œVery well, Ustadji,ā€ said the king. With a smile he looked into Tansenā€™s eyes.
ā€œIf he doesnā€™t come here, I shall go to him myself. Will you take me to him ?ā€ asked the king.
ā€œYes, but you do not go there as the king,ā€ said Tansen.
ā€œI shall go as a humble lover of music,ā€ said the king.

Sant Haridas was the man. Tansen told Akbar about him. He was Tansenā€™s guru. He lived a very simple life. He was devoted to music and to Lord Krishna. He lived in Vrundavan, in a hut on the bank of the river Yamuna. His disciples were Baijubawara and Tansen.

When Tansen and the king reached the place, Sant Haridas was busy with his daily routine. He greeted both. When they requested him to sing, he smiled and said, ā€œI am not a great musician. I sing as you sing. I left singing many days ago. So I canā€™t sing properly.ā€ Tansen, his favourite disciple, could not persuade him to change his mind.

However, Tansen knew how to get round him. He offered to sing before his guru. Then, as Tansen sang, he made some mistake again and again. ā€œThatā€™s not the right note, Tansen,ā€ l cried his guru. ā€œWhat has happened to you?ā€ said the guru.

Tansen pretended not to understand, He made the same mistake again. Sant Haridas was angry. He took the tanpura from Tansenā€™s hand. He sang raag Darbari in the right way. He went on to the next and the next!

The sweetness of his voice spread all around. Both the king and Tansen forgot where they were. The king realized that Tansen was right. He had certainly never heard any music like this before. He l said, ā€œI agree. Sant Haridas is the greatest musician. No other musician is so great as him.ā€

They walked back silently. Then the king broke the silence. ā€œWhy canā€™t you sing like him, Ustadji?ā€ Tansen smiled, ā€œShahenshah, I sing at your command-the command of the king of Hindustan. Guiuji sings for the one who is the king of kings !ā€
