Jai Jai Garvi GUJARAT
Where seas meet sparkling sands,
blushing sunsets embrace rosy dawns.
The jungles lush and green,
where lions prowl and flamingos preen. Marble temples white and pure,
reflect the glory of the days of yore. Age-old palaces browned in the sun and water parks for a day of fun.
Here tribal life is a celebration, of music, dance and multicolored traditions.
