World Music Day Poems 2025: World Music Day, also known as Fête de la Musique, is celebrated every year on June 21 to honour the healing power and universal language of music. What started in France in 1982 has now evolved into a worldwide celebration of sound, soul, and expression. On this day, both professional and amateur musicians take to the streets, parks, and public spaces to perform freely, turning the world into a stage and music into a shared experience for all.

Why World Music Day Is Important

World Music Day is not just a celebration of sound—it's a reminder of how deeply music is connected to our health, emotions, and mental well-being. Studies have shown that listening to or playing music can reduce stress, lower anxiety, and even improve sleep quality. Music acts as a natural therapy, helping people cope with depression, boost mood, and enhance focus. It brings a sense of peace and encourages mindfulness and connects individuals across cultures and borders. On this day, we celebrate music not just as entertainment but as a powerful tool for healing, harmony, and happiness.

To capture the spirit of this day, here’s a collection of heartfelt English and Hindi poems that beautifully reflects the emotional bond we all share with music:

English Poems on World Music Day 2025

Poem 1: A Friend Found in Music

Music is the ocean that pulls me to the shore.
Music is the rhythm that moves me to the core.
Music is the therapy I need when I feel blue.
Music lifts my spirits to make sure I pull through.
The times when I'm most cheerful, it's clear music was there.
Music is the needed friend when no one seems to care.

Poem 2: Power of Music

Music brings joy,
to all of our hearts,
It's one of those,
emotional arts.
Music has the power,
to help and to heal,
It's truly amazing,
how it makes us feel
Music clearly,
enlightens our days,
Makes us happy,
in so many ways.

Poem 3: A Music is Made
What and how
Can I define
And give a meaning
When I look
To the soft sunshine
That illuminates
My inner and outer world
How can I give a name
when music is made
When sweet breeze
Caresses the green branch
Or when
Flowers dance
In the rhythm
And the birds chirp

Poem 4: In Need of Music

I am in need of music that would flow
Over my fretful, feeling fingertips,
Over my bitter-tainted, trembling lips,
With melody, deep, clear, and liquid-slow.
Oh, for the healing swaying, old and low,
Of some song sung to rest the tired dead,
A song to fall like water on my head,
And over quivering limbs, dream flushed to glow!

There is a magic made by melody:
A spell of rest, and quiet breath, and cool
Heart, that sinks through fading colors deep
To the subaqueous stillness of the sea,
And floats forever in a moon-green pool,
Held in the arms of rhythm and of sleep.

Poem 5: What Is Music To You

Music is freedom that relentlessly exists
Freedom of speech
Freedom of thought
Freedom of creativity
Freedom of imagination
Music is ever soothingly healing
A bombardment of on-going expression of feelings
Music is a tool of unity
Always bringing people together as family
Hence be described as a mentor of spirituality
Music is magic
Performing its tricks
With sweet instrumental tones and lyrics

Poem 6: When Music Sounds

When music sounds, gone is the earth I know,
And all her lovely things even lovelier grow;
Her flowers in vision flame, her forest trees
Lift burdened branches, stilled with ecstasies.
When music sounds, out of the water rise
Naiads whose beauty dims my waking eyes,
Rapt in strange dreams burns each enchanted face,
With solemn echoing stirs their dwelling-place.
When music sounds, all that I was I am
Ere to this haunt of brooding dust I came;
And from Time’s woods break into distant song
The swift-winged hours, as I hasten along

Poem 7: A Crazed Girl

That crazed girl improvising her music.
Her poetry, dancing upon the shore,

Her soul in division from itself
Climbing, falling She knew not where,
Hiding amid the cargo of a steamship,
Her knee-cap broken, that girl I declare
A beautiful lofty thing, or a thing
Heroically lost, heroically found.

No matter what disaster occurred
She stood in desperate music wound,
Wound, wound, and she made in her triumph
Where the bales and baskets lay
No common intelligible sound
But sang, “O sea-starved, hungry sea.”

Poem 8: Come In

As I came to the edge of the woods,
Thrush music — hark!
Now if it was dusk outside,
Inside it was dark.
Too dark in the woods for a bird
By sleight of wing
To better its perch for the night,
Though it still could sing.
The last of the light of the sun
That had died in the west
Still lived for one song more
In a thrush's breast.
Far in the pillared dark
Thrush music went —
Almost like a call to come in
To the dark and lament.
But no, I was out for stars;
I would not come in.
I meant not even if asked;
And I hadn't been.

Poem 9: I love thy music

I love thy music, mellow bell,
I love thine iron chime,
To life or death, to heaven or hell,
Which calls the sons of Time.

Thy voice upon the deep
The home-bound sea-boy hails,
It charms his cares to sleep,
It cheers him as he sails.

To house of God and heavenly joys
Thy summons called our sires,
And good men thought thy sacred voice
Disarmed the thunder's fires.

And soon thy music, sad death-bell,
Shall lift its notes once more,
And mix my requiem with the wind
That sweeps my native shore.

Poem 10: Music is medicine

They say this is my name,
And this is where I stay.
But I don't know who they are,
And what day it is today.

The faces all look the same,
Gentle and ever so kind.
Different names I'm told,
But it's confusing for my mind.

Where are my family and friends?
They may have already been.
Have I spoken to them already?
But I don't remember who I’ve seen.

Just play me my old music,
Let me sing the words I know.
Smile and sing along with me,
Until it's time you have to go.

These beautiful poems celebrate the soul-stirring power of music and its ability to heal, connect, and inspire. As you read through each verse, may you find a deeper appreciation for how music speaks to our hearts—without needing a single word.
