The song Mayuri Go has been written by Shri Jivan Pani
The lyrics of Mayuri Go goes as such
Mayuri Go Tuma Akashe Mun, Dine Malhare Megha Sajili
Chandrika Toli Nachila Tume, Indradhanu Mu Aankili
Mayuri Go...
Tuma Chhanda Re Jebe Mo Sura Hajai Debi Boli Bhabili
Ete Barsha Re, Maati Gandha Re, Jebe Tumaku Mu Bhala Paili
Keun Sabuja Bana Mayare (2), Tume Luchi Gala Kete Khojili
Mayuri Go Tuma Akashe Mun, Dine Malhare Megha Sajili
Mayuri go...
Indradhanu Ku Dei Mu, Kali Chandrika Tama Rangina
Niswa Mun Luha Jharai, Aji Matira Dehe Bilina
Bhija Mati Mu Ebe Ta Bhabuchi (2), Kimpa Tumaku Go Bhala Paili
Mayuri Go Tuma Akashe Mun, Dine Malhare Megha Sajili
Chandrika Toli Nachila Tume, Indradhanu Mu Aankili
This song does get the goosebumps up, how ever many times you hear it
