Before revision: A question has been whirling in the musical fraternity for generations. Which comes first? Melody or lyrics? The answer to which is still unknown. It is well established that the lyrics play a very important role in portraying the emotional content of a particular recitation or song. The audience intuitively listens to the lyrics of the song or recitation and tends to get an idea of the mood of the song or recitation. But what would happen if the lyric part is separated from the melody and conveyed to the audience as a separate entity altogether. Would the emotional content of the recitation remain the same or the meaning would change altogether? A recitation is a way of combining the words together so that they have a sense of rhythm and thus an emotional content is imbibed within.
