Morulem is a traditional folk dance in Goa performed during the Shigmo festival by the backward community. It derives its name from the peacock also known as "Mor" in konkani. The dance is also known as a peacock dance and performed to the soft music of a light drum.
The Morulem dance draws large crowds of viewers as it is a dance form accompanied by folk songs about a peacock. The dancers wear peacock feathers on the head and a flowery garland around the neck. They move in mock resemblance to the peacock and invoke the deities by singing traditional songs.
