That is beautiful. What language is that?

@bijouxbroussard Maybe Hindi. Sanskrit is a written language only.
In GB Shaw's play [i]Pygmallion[/i], when Henry Higgins meets Colonel Pickering, he has a line, "Colonel Pickering? The author of 'Spoken Sanskrit?' " (I don't remember whether this line made it into the musical adaptation, [i]My Fair Lady[/i].) It was an "in" joke, which would have gone over the head of many members of the audience.
