Sing a song of friendship

An evening out with friends can be one of those fleeting times which we love to remember as happy. Bangalore is a mixed city with so many flavors, that somewhere you will find one to make you happy (more on that some other time). One of these occasions was at MG road when we chanced upon a man while he was singing with his friends. Guitar in hand, he was there just to make people happy. I don't really understand music, but  then he sang what I knew as a nursery rhyme - Sing a song of sixpence.

 To my friends, especially to Tuks who made me post this here, and who was actually smiling that day,

Sing a song of six pence

and make me forget all cares.

Sing a song of six pence

I'll bring all my friends here.

Sing to us that children's song

so we can go back in time,

forget about this day and age

and laughing, dance to every rhyme.

Sing a song about dreams,

as one of us is drowsing away.

Sing a song of joy

for she is smiling so today.

Sing a song with rhythm

for he likes his tunes that way

Sing a song full of music

for I want to dance and sway.

Sing a song of longing,

for my dear ones far away.

Sing a song of friendship

for me to share with my friends

Sing a song of six pence

and make me forget all cares

Sing a song of six pence

and make me forget all cares.
