“Folk songs of Meghalaya are a vibrant reflection of the state’s rich cultural heritage and tribal traditions. Sung by the Khasi, Jaintia, and Garo communities, these songs celebrate nature, love, harvests, and heroic legends. Passed down orally through generations, they are often accompanied by traditional instruments like the duitara and bom. The melodies are simple yet soulful, resonating with the rhythms of daily life and seasonal festivities. Folk songs play a vital role in preserving indigenous languages and customs, offering a deep insight into the values and worldviews of Meghalaya’s diverse tribal societies.”
