Harp

The harp is a stringed musical instrument. Harps have been known since antiquity in Asia, Africa and Europe, dating back at least as early as 3500 BCE. Quotes I lay my harp on the curved table,Sitting there idly, filled only with emotions.Why should I trouble to play?A breeze will come and sweep the strings.
