Bandishes

Want to write about:
"Jhanan jhanan bichhua baaje" - bandish in Raga Chhaya Nat sung by several maestros.
Ae ri sakhi - Hazrat Amir Khusro, Rashid Khan, Nusrat, Ghulam Sabir & Waris,
Chaap tilak sab chheeni


Similarly,
"Lat ulajhi suljha ja balam" - bandish in Raga Behag sung by several maestros too.

It is beautiful to listen to the same base composition interpreted by the different greats in their unique individualistic manners/styles.

Interestingly, both the bandishes express some sort of embarrassingly romantic helplessness from a young lady. :)

"Tadapat rain din" - banish in Raga Maru Bihag composed by Inayat Piya ji sung again by several maestros.

Badarwa barasan aaye - bandish in Raga Sur Malhar.
