(This is a Songlet/ Bandish from folk music of North India - a Jhoola, which belongs to a poet - Lalit Kishori from Radhavallabh Sampraday, a bhakti cult - which attempts to understand Krishna through Radha’s eye! Now this form called 'Jhoola' is adopted by Semiclassical stream of Hindustani Music & is performed in concerts regularly!)

Pra’s Jhoola – In Live Concert

Text:

“Aaj Dou jhoolat rang bhare!

Musakat Radha pyari, shyam salone sayan kare!

Nanhi nanhi bundan pare patan pe, jyun shashi meen lare!

Ud Ud achraa pare jhoolan pe, nirakhat ang khare!

Lalitkishori kahe kar joree, Mohan Mann ko hare!”

Dedicated to AaiBaba, my Parents… & to Their 50 years Love Story, which is still as cheerful n alive as it was 50 years back! :O))

Love You AaiBaba!

Yours Banwri Dottir, Pra~! :O)))

PS-

Kindly bear with the bad recording quality as it was recorded live!
