અલ્લક દલ્લક🪈💃🌙🎶
ચિત્ર: બાલ ગુજરાતી – our own illustration of the lesson.

અલ્લક દલ્લક, ઝાંઝરઝલ્લક – રાધાનાં ઝાંઝર રણકે છે, કાનાની વાંસળી વાગે છે.

રઢિયાળી રાતે રાસ જામ્યો છે; એવી સુંદર રાધાગોરી, મુખડું ઝળકે ઝળક ઝળક!

કવિએ શબ્દો, પ્રાસ અને લયથી રાસનો આનંદ જીવંત કર્યો છે – ગાવું અને ગવડાવવું સૌને ગમે.

બોધ – What the story teaches

Rhythm and sound bring joy to poetry. લય અને પ્રાસથી કાવ્ય ગાવાની મજા આવે.
