Once upon a time, there lived a shepherd named Raja in a village. He played the flute so beautifully that the villagers loved to listen to him play it. They would forget everything as they listened to the wonderful tunes of the flute. They believed that he could even charm wild beasts with the music of his flute. Raja was in love with a shepherdess named Rani. He had told her many times that he loved her. But she would never pay attention to him. Due to this, he was always trying to impress her in some way or another. Knowing that most people liked to listen to his flute, he would play very sweet songs for her. Listening to Raja's music, wild beasts would begin to dance.
