Sargam (Notation) for song : Raat Kali ek khwaab mein aayee
Film : Buddha Mil Gaya (1971)
Singer : Kishore Kumar
Lyricist : Majrooh Sultanpuri
Music by : R D Burman

Flute used for notations : B

Following notations are easy to play, even for beginners. I’m not too sure about it, but the song seems to be based on Raag Khamaj. The song has three Antara.  I have given notations for the first one which will work for rest of the two Antara as well. However, I have also given notations for the three interlude music pieces before each Antara.
