Sargam notations for the song : Kahin door jab din dhal jaye

Singer : Mukesh
Lyrics : Yogesh
Music : Salil Chowdhury
Movie : Anand (1971)

This song is very close to my heart. Magical composition by Sali Chowdhury, amzing lyrics by Yogesh and soulful singing of Mukesh. Just the song that I wish to listen again and again when I am sad.

I had been trying to write the notations for this song from quite some time now. But I would get stuck after the prelude tune which I would start with Ga for easiness. But after the prelude I would not get the correct note of the first word “kahin” in the song. I kept on trying and trying. And then, today I tried something different. I started the prelude tune with High Sa on G# flute. That was it. After starting the prelude of the song on high sa, I was able to come to the correct note for “kahin” which was Dha.

I really enjoy playing this song on my flute. I have tried to jot down the prelude, interlude and music pieces in between the song as below. Hope you will also enjoy this evergreen song on your instruments.

CAPITAL LETTERS = Shuddh Swars (Natural Notes)
small letters = Komal Swars (Flat Notes)
M with # [hash] or ^ [exponent] = Tivra Madhyam (M# / M^)
Letter/Alphabet ONLY = Medium Pitch/Normal blow on flute
Letter/Alphabet PRECEDED BY a ” . ” [full stop] or a ” , ” [comma] = Low Octave Note/Softer blow on flute
Letter/Alphabet FOLLOWED BY a ‘ [single quote] = High Octave Note/harder blow on flute
Notes in { } = “murki” have to be played very fast without any pause
A Note in ( ) = “kann swar” has to be just touched before moving on to the next note
A “~” between two Notes = “meend”. That is, you have to glide from one note to another slowly to produce that wavy effect.
Few “….” (dots) after a note = Play and hold that note
