It's the only song we know in our native language of Gujarati, and it has been precious to be able to pass that onto our daughter. We didn't know this song as children; it was a gift to us from my husband's paternal uncle and aunt, who live in North Carolina and taught it to our daughter during a holiday visit. It speaks to the occasional, but very real loneliness of childhood and the eagerness to connect with someone or something you've met even briefly. It also shows us the capacity for music to create an impromptu sense of community, family, and friendship and to close the geographic and generational gaps between us. For our elders, the song has been an affirmation that the language of their childhoods is still very much with us. Migration story: My husband and I are both first generation Gujarati Americans whose parents immigrated from India in the 1970's. Chinatown connection: Our family visited Chinatown for the first time to see Shaw Pong perform at the Pao Arts Center, as our daughter has been really drawn to the violin for the past year, and we thought it would be exciting for her to attend a live performance. When we returned to the Pao Arts Center four months later for the Live Band Karaoke, it didn't matter that we were one of few in the room who couldn't follow the Chinese lyrics and sing along. We could still hear embodied in their voices the singers' nostalgia for their childhood homes, how dearly they missed their loved ones and the lives they had left behind, and how much it was at once a struggle and a joy to be given this chance to return home, in communion with a sympathetic audience. Reference Video 原因： 这是一首印度儿童歌曲，歌詞是我們州的語言——古吉拉特语。 这是我們唯一一首知道的古吉拉特语歌，能够将這首歌传递给我们的女儿是很宝贵的。 我們小時候不知道这首歌，这是我丈夫父亲那邊的叔叔和阿姨送给我們的礼物。他们住在北卡罗来纳州。他們在假期探望我們的時候，會教這首歌给我们的女儿。 移民故事：我的丈夫和我都是第一代古吉拉特邦美国人，我们的父母在1970年代从印度移民过来。 參考視頻 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a4910ee12abd9131e0cd19e/1531358288143-HYXPAZI0I5BGU0V0QHAF/image-asset.jpeg Library 歌曲目錄 - Saturday in the Park self-submitted video Why: There are a lot of lyrics in this song that make me think of my grandfather.

Sebastian’s mother grew up in Montréal, Canada and moved to Boston after university in 2001 for work, as the economy back home was quite poor at that time.
