There was a place where a bolt struck today,
Lightening never strikes twice there they say,
To find the safest place then there is only one way,
I put that place in my tray,
I went on for long,
Collecting places and holding it strong,
After a thousand years I will ring,
There will be a sound, more like a tong,
Less like a ting,
On the day of full moon a villager will step out of a levitating train,
He shall take me along, unaware of his gain.
Ra Cell, the most prolific singer of all times, had announced in a media conference that he had increased the fundamental notes from seven to nine and that extra notes had given him an advantage to create fourteen new ragas in the carnatic music spectrum. Sharp criticisms from rasikas and experts stormed the proclamation. A music watch-keeper fired straight onto the radical and challenged his claim in the court.
The listeners of Ra Cell were guaranteed to hear truly different sounds based on the new discovery.
